Put £18 down on a15p/30p table and after getting down to £5 , eneded up cashing out £84.
will put that to cover my recent losses and start again with £50 from tommorow
Start BR - £34.06
Current BR - £40.58
From £97.43
TOTAL = £101.06 101%

So i stuck it on the super sunday,my dreams come true and i came 4th for 22 quid,i managed to hold my own for a few days losing a couple of quid winning a couple o quid then i won a deepstack for £72 which put me right back in it,i won about £30 quid last night which put me in front for the first time since i started these BR challenges so im hoping im going to start to run good, for a few weeks at least just to get my confidence back to where it was.
Haven't posted on here for abit but here we go. The month started very well. I got my roll up from about £31 to £42 in two or three days, the I had to go to Felixstowe with the Parkside Players for the Felixstow Drama Festival, and since I've come back it's like I don't know how to play DYMs anymore. At first it was just bad variance I think, and it might still be that but I feel like I'm not playing well. I'm down to about £30 now, and am taking a bit of a break from the DYMs. Will be playing the freerolls today.
quick update time
now up to £71.50 (£20 up on the week) from the start of the month which was £41.54
I think I'm beginning to put into practice the things I learnt from the first challenge!
Hopefully I can carry it on next week and I haven't just jinxed myself!
Good luck everyone, but not at the table I'm on!
Apart from qualifying for SPT in Swansea (total cost £94.00), I have not had a good week including a run where I lost 12 out of 13 "races" after being ahead in 8, but that's the way it goes sometimes. Had to top up my bankroll by another £100 for this month, although my Swansea seat is worth £110, so not total disaster. Need a strong 2nd half to the month.
Another consolation, I am still over £160 ahead in 2010.
Start BR £100 target £200
Day 1 +£6.50
Day 2 +£2.00
Day 3 +£8.80
Day 4 -£2.00
Day 5 -£34.40
Day 6 -£11.00
Day 7 -£22.00
Day 8 -£34.40 (includes cost of SPT Sat & Semi - qualified for Swansea, seat worth £110)
Day 9 -£55.00 (terrible run)
Day 10 +£9.00
Day 11 -£2.00
Day 12 -£24.00
Total -£158.50
BR £57.13...doubledup.com....Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Bring on July
x
£15 down on my £100.
Some might argue though that's a bit of a victory for me at this half-way stage!
Nevertheless I'm on Play The Presenter this Wednesday, sat alongside Tikay no doubt in the office after we finish recording all the shows like The Club for the week.
So I'm determined that evening to get that figure above £100!
Welll done to everyone who has posted on here recently with profits- I'm, well impressed...and yes, ok, ever so slightly jealous!
Currently my balance stands at £214.00.
There may be hope yet
Will you be joining the tables later?
Day 16.
Richard comes into the diary room...My bankroll challenge continues this evening from approximately 7pm- so look out for me on the tables - the alias is 'ricorford'.
I'm going to play the Orfordable deepstack for £2.20 at 7.10 where I'm hoping to outlast Tikay in his 7pm Sleepstack and then maybe play some DYMs/cash until I switch to my official Sky Poker alias of 'richorford' and play the World Cup qualifier at 10pm.
So please come and join me tonight in the deepie and then on the cash tables. Be nice to chat to you and you can watch at first-hand how NOT to do a bankroll challenge!
Starting roll- £100
Current roll- £85
ROI- minus 15%
Do you want to consult your bank manager?
Glad you could join us at last, although with your limited experience in the Orfordable Deepstack I doubt you will outlast me yet alone Tikay Lol.
I am also registered for the Tikay Sleepstack so come join us if you dare.
Good Luck Rich..........See You There.
Sigh...
That, and playing rubbish poker as well...
So now on £82.70 from £100= minus 17.3%
Status reports please all!
I'm yet to get off the mark this month but I've 'only' lost 17 quid, so feeling reasonably good about that!
How is everyone's challenge faring?
And if you haven't started one yet- it's not too late. Pick an amount, post it on here and pledge to double it before June expires.

This player will self-destruct...on the 2p/4p tables"
after a terrible start(was down to me last fiver) my everlasting downturn suddenly become an upswing and i managed to turn that last fiver into £215,so from my starting £100 i,ve hit my target plus £15.this game is unreal at times so while i,ve been minimising my losses for a few months now i knew i would hit a run of cards sooner or later so when i did i took maximum advantage and my confidence is slowly coming back.
so i,ve hit my target i wont carry on i,ll wait for the next one,great challenge though it does give you an aim in the game and something to think about,roll on the next one..sean
Wow, inspiring stuff Sean. FIVE QUID into £215??!!! Tasty ROI, that!
Glad the cards are coming for you now and that you found this challenge helped you improve.
Jaeger, that's legendary. I think you deserve one or two of your name-sakes to toast your victory.
That's one or two though-you're the designated driver!
Hope to see you at swansea
