Default The Challenge Begins!

Well it's Tuesday and my final exams are over. Other than thermodynamics kicking my ass everything went just fine.

So I've just got my first 6 games up and running for my 100 sng in a day challenge. I'll post interesting hands, and results about every 25 games. I've got my green tea on hand, and had a good self hypnosis session this morning so I think I'll be able to fend off ye olde tilt.

If you can guess my ROI over these games you win a million points.

Zephyr

Good luck! I'll guess an ROI of 34%. You'll be above 40% for the first 50, but fatigue will start to set in and I predict a couple bad decisions in the last 20 sngs to bring you down to mortal levels.

How many HHs do I have to post to clear my points?

When Daliman did this for the $200's he wound up losing money, although bad beats had a lot to do with it.

I predict 5%.

100 in a day would be brutal for me. I did 37 in a day once while 2 tabling and was burned out. I estimate a slightly worse than normal ROI for the 20s. 15% is my guess.
