Default RAPTOR\'S SNG CHALLENGE!!!!!

ok, to all of you hardcore sngers out there, im proposing a challenge, which i will be partaking in myself. the goal is 500 sngs for 8 tablers and 250 sngs for 4 tablers. any limit is welcome to partake.

i will be playing the 109s on party and empire under the names of NurseLadyLV and Bebop86, respectively. my goal is a measly 8% roi. i have had an amazingly terrible run of 700 there breaking even which put my roi down WAY low. im going to play 500 no matter how terrrible im doing, in part to prove to myself that im not terrible enough to lose at the 109s. itm goal we can set at 36.5%, should be reasonable for an 8% return.

if i get in 500 sngs at an 8% roi in the 109s, thats $4360 profit. not a bad week eh? all of you college people that say u are broke make a note.

ok, so i challenge each and every one of you to play at least 250 if you 4 table and 500 if you 8 table. feel free to update with daily results, i may do that if i get bored, who knows. ok, so it officially starts NOW. of course, im going to sleep for 10 hours then getting started, so yall get a head start!!! lol, ok, well, im done being retarded, good luck, and see u at the tables. holla

I accept your SNG challenge. I will play 250 SNGs 2-4 tabling at the 109s. I predict an 8.5% roi [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I think this SNG challenge could be really interesting. I will be playing under the name blaydzfsteel, hopefully we can avoid each other [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img].

Default I\'m in

I six table so I'll make it 325 sng's at the 20's. This will be good for me to get my BR back up to play the 30's again.

I'll be in Vegas next week.

I will attempt to play 1-5 tournaments while there, one-tabling.

Due to variance, I have no promises or expectations for my ROI.

Just know I will be working this challenge with you in spirit, [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img].

holla!

I'm definitely gonna get in on this. Not sure if I want to play 215s or 109s though. I won't be starting til tonight around 11:00 or midnight. Hmm, which limit should I play?

I think I'll go with 109s, and 4-table them. You're giving me a week? And it's spring break?!? And I don't have to see my fiance?!? I think I can get 250 easy. I'm gonna set a goal of 15% ROI.

Updates to come [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Sure, why not. I just went through a couple really bad stretches in the $30's, so I think I'll do this challenge in the $20's (8-tabling) for some confidence/bankroll boosting.

I think I'll set my goal to 20% ROI. I'd be pretty happy with that 8-tabling.

Questions for you from another thread maybe you missed:

Wow, only 18 and already 8 tabling the $109s?? very impressive!! How long ago did you start poker and how long ago did you start playing Party SnGs?

Also how many games did you play and what was your ROI approx at each level before you moved up?

Congrats on the progress!!
