Taking six max to the max STT challenge and diary

Phantom66

Well my last diary was based on deciding which was best for me, DYMs or 6max and the result was pretty emphatically in favour of 6max:

My aim for 2014 is to work up through the buy-ins, with sensible B/R management, and get to a position where I can test myself over a run of 100+ 6max at £10 and record a +ve ROI.

B/R now thanks to the last challenge is £85.93.

I was going to move up to £3.30 but they seem to have disappeared from the lobby, so it will have to be £2.20 to start with.

Think I'll also MT more and maybe mix levels to get the volume in.

Updates to follow as before - I think the discipline of keeping records and sharing the good and bad has definitely helped keep the tilt to a minimum and manage the B/R properly. Both of the latter 2 just as, if not more important, than playing well for long term results.

Very similar to my diary then! Best of luck

And I'm off...

decent start - couple of mini sessions multi-tabling across 3 game types std £2.20 6max as well as £2.20 6max speed and £1.10 6max.

Ahead to start with but far too soon to draw any conclusions.

£2.20 seems a bit stronger - a few more players seem to know where the raise button is for a start.

GL with it Phantom. Totally agree with the above point. Its hard to post losses up day after day but it does keep you focused and helps you with tilting as you know you,ve got to post for everyone to see  at the end of the day or session

Amen to that, it definitely helps a great deal.

Good luck Mr Phantom.
