    Played for the first time last night cleared three levels, will go again tonight. It's quite addictive had to pull myself away, those micro DYMs take a lot longer than I expected!

    Just won through the 5.50, blinds were at 200/400 before we lost the first runner, and was ridiculous on the bubble blinds going round 300/600, complete shove fest in part!

    Enjoying the ride though, will be playing level 6 (£11) tomorrow night probably.

    Can you add my name to the list for this challenge please :) has anyone managed it yet?
    Posted by HoldemHoty
    Yeah you could have started as soon as you posted here and I can see you already have. Nice going to get so far on your first 2 attempts by the way. I've added you to the leaderboard now.

    I'm managing this thread by the way, I've just been a bit busy and haven't updated it recently, but I'll be keeping on top of it in future.

    Nice going on completing level 6. That gets you on the leaderboard

    Yeah it is still running and will continue to run until we get 3 people who complete it and win the 3 prizes (or Sky say otherwise).

    Sick hand with the AA v A2 by the way. Good luck in your next game.

    So that's it folks, I've finally got round to updating it all, and I will keep on top of things in future.

    Well done to everyone who has got so far, especially Wynne who has consistently got very far over and over again. I'm sure one of them Primo seats has your name on it Wynne.

    We now have a massive 184 people taking part in this which is pretty massive.

    Good Luck All!

    The next level after level 6 is £16.50.

    Make sure you do them in the right order or you won't get the prize.

    Ah yes, good catch thanks - a long way to go before I start thinking about prizes, but would've hurt to win through 22 and find out it doesn't count. Thanks for the tip off.

    All hs to be verified by Sharkscope. What if you have opted out ? Sharkscope accesses your details without consent and they are often wrong.  According to them I have lost more money than I have paid into Sky altogether not even allowing for what I have withdrawn. Surely there should be a way of verifying these results within Sky itself. End result I can't enter this comp.

      In Response to DYM Laddering Challenge --- Turn 60p into £200 --- 3x £55 Primo Seats!! --- 184 Runners So Far!:
    Hi All, Someone recently mentioned IrishRover's previous DYM challenge of turning 60p into £200 by winning consecutive games through every level of DYMs up to £110 buy-in. I then saw Yidette's blog for the first time, describing her journey to completing this challenege which had me very intrigued. Tikay has now kindly offered to have a look round for some goodies if we set this competition up again. Level 1   -    60p Level 2   -    £1.15 Level 3   -    £2.25 Level 4   -    £3.30 Level 5   -    £5.50 Level 6   -    £11.00 Level 7   -    £16.50 Level 8   -    £22.00 Level 9   -   £33.00 Level 10 -   £55.00 Level 11 -   £82.50 Level 12 -   £110.00 All players must start from level 1, and progress to the next level with each consecutive win. If at any level, you lose a game, then you must go straight back to level 1 and start again! Please post up your progress and whether you're still 'live' or have busted, and I will put together a table of people who are doing the best. All results will need to be verified via Sharkscope. Prizes The first 3 unique people to complete all levels of this challenge will win a £55 seat into the Primo on Sunday - So if 1 person completes it 3 times, they will only receive 1 seat to the Primo. ====================================================================== Top Performers...

Basically, there's alot of people who play DYMs regularly and I don't think this challenge should affect them being able to play. It would also give the reserve effect that Sky would want, by making people play less DYMs than normal. The way I see it is, you have only failed if you play the relevant level and lose that game. So if you're up to the 60p game, then playing and losing a £5.50 DYM is no different from going and playing an MTT (it's unrelated to the challenge). So if you regularly play the £3.30 games, then all that matters is when you've won the £2.20 game, the next time you play a £3.30 you'll need to win it. Once you've done that you can lose 50 £3.30s in a row if ya like, because the next game for you (relevant to the challenge) is £5.50. ================================================================================ Good Luck All!

    There are ocassionally mistakes on SS, although from what I've seen these are usually more often mistakes with MTT results and with people's graphs and you can see the true information by looking into the actual games played by said person. Also, if you have blocked your SS, there is still a level of VIP access on SS where you can still see blocked people's stats.

    But if you don't want to enter, that's fine.

    I've slacked off with trying this but decided to get back on the horse, so I'm in the middle of my 60p game now.

    EDIT: And I'm joining you Wynne!

    I looked away for a split second and saw you were gone so I missed it, but I know you know how to play early stages of a DYM so knew you had probably just got unlucky.

    Third time lucky for me, only took me 3 goes to win the 60p game. I'm tired so will play level 2 tomorrow.
