    Think you've missed the point,you got to start at the 60p level and work your way all the way up without losing once in a row.

    I fell at the first level lol,forgot how bad some are there,but have got back on the horse and on level 3.

    A bad decision about my own demise to bust in level 7.

    On the bubble I open-raised on the button with A7s, a calling station on the SB flatted, then an aggreasive short-stack on the BB jammed. It was a perfect squeeze-spot and I put him on a wide range. Wrong; he doubled off me with AK. That left me adrift in 4th and I couldn't find a way back. Looking back at it now I hate my call with A7s, it was terrible.

    Back to level 1.

    Are there still prizes to be won?
    Posted by Donttelmum
    Yeah still prizes to be won. First 3 people to do it get free entry into the Primo on Sunday worth £55. Plus by the time you've completed it you'll have made about £280 profit from like £1 outlay :p

    Good luck mate.

    Yeah I think so, you'll play your normal games while you try to do the first few levels, then when you win the £2 game, you'll have to win your first £3 and first £5 game, then when you're playing £11+ you can play as many £3s and £5s as you like.

    Decent alias by the way.

    Turbos count but it has to be at 6-max games.

    Turbos only run up so high in stakes as well as I think something lke £11+ you'd have to play regulars.

    Unlucky Gary. Yeah I don't wanna rub it in, but you know it was a really bad call lol. Even if it is a squeeze with a completely random hand, you still aint a big enough favourite to warrant taking the race on a DYM bubble.

    In Response to DYM Laddering Challenge --- Turn 60p into £200 --- 3x £55 Primo Seats!! --- 192 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!

    Back to the start, busted level 6 this afternoon.

    All 6 players were still alive when the game reached the shallow stacks push/fold stage when I lost a standard flip with AK<44 aipf to be left well adrift in 6th/6, I fought back but couldn't quite get there, bubbled in 4th when I shoved A7 into JJ.

    In the last couple of weeks I've had 1x level 6 win and 2x level 5 wins. Not good enough, so I'm going to keep trying.
