Thanks for reposting the limits, now I don't have to go duck hunting for the original post. I'm lazy like that! I'm still waiting for my Neteller account to get set up, but I'm definitely gonna give it a whirl when the cash clears.

Today didn't go nearly as well as yesterday. I was up to 101.5 after clearing the 0.5/1 limit in around 3 hrs. I played a bit of 1/2 yesterday in addition and made 12 or 13 in headway there as well and was feeling good going into day two despite having my ass handed to me at my regular 2/4 game.

I think I'm having trouble focusing because I've reduced my "win rate" at 2/4 by only playing one table so I can do the challenge. Another issue that is troubling me is the artificial splitting of my "bankroll" into the 2/4 bankroll and the challenge bankroll.

That having been made clear (because nobody cares but me) I gave back some ground today at 1/2. I was way hurting for a while and came back strong, but still lost $27 and am down to $74.5. I believe according to the rules I have the right to stay at 1/2 and don't have to go back to 0.5/1. I suppose I could play one table of 1/2 and one of 0.5/1 to try to gain ground, but I don't have enough $$ to play two tables of 1/2 now.

I've been playing a lot lately (outside the challenge) and I should probably take tomorrow off to appease the wife. We'll see.

That's all for now.
