Get some sleep tonight - The 400 in 4 Days Challenge
 
Finals are over, so that means two things - poker and snowboarding. Starting tomorrow (Monday), I'm gonna play 400 tourneys in 4 days, and then take the weekend off and ride.

ish is gonna be pimp. I'll be on AIM if anyone wants to join in. Get some rest tonight (or start up tonight if you're a gangsta)

400 in 4 days, you've got yourself a deal. I just had my last final this morning. I'll probably be at the 20s most of the time so I'll see you a lot I'm sure. GL

7-8 hrs each day for 4 days isn't ridiculous, it's just a good effort. Some guys have kept that up for a month, maybe even longer.

I'll be doing my own challenge during that period of time, where I answer 400 IMs with "Hmm...I'd probably fold there."

Re: Get some sleep tonight - The 400 in 4 Days Challenge
 
I'm in, played about 20 so far.
Can only 6 table at the moment (33s) because I cannnot find the lead to my other monitor, so as long as I find that I'll give it a good go.

Target - $4000, ambitious but the bank would be pleased.

Perg,

So yer copying *my* challenge, eh?

I basically went crazy (even though I ended up) and stopped taking poker seriously for many, many months due to burnout and a deep sense of worthlessness.

So you have that possibility to look forward to.

Oh, keep a noose on hand.

However, if I was still in college I'd likely do this like once a month.

Already played 100 today + a couple MTTs. I'm shooting for 1,000 for this week as a whole, so like 850 more in these five days (monday - friday).

It's like repeatedly bashing your head against a stone wall!! so much fun [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I may give this one a whirl in early January. Unfortunately, I still have a final, plus 6 grad apps to do first.

I'll let you know.

Re: Get some sleep tonight - The 400 in 4 Days Challenge
 
Heh I've been 8-tabling, so I didn't want to chat too much. Got like 50 done so far...I'll update when these last two games of the session are done.

Also my computer started to get really choppy after a couple hours, not sure why. Won't be chatting on it as a result..maybe I'll chat on my laptop or something.

Huh, I threw in an 8-table session on the $22s at lunch and went 1-8 ITM with my only win a third.

Coincidence?

LMAO, sorry! I was ITM only once out of eight and that was a 3rd place finish. Better?

Aight official stats after the first break.

4 hours
51 games played
$118 profit
10.5% ROI

Been decent. I started off hot, basically made all my profit in the first 20 games and then was breakeven the next 30. Gonna grab a quick lunch and resume pwnage.

If I hadn't already finished finals about 10 days ago and did a similar challenge I would join you. I couldn't come close to doing 400 SNGs in 4 days though, I just usually can't maintain my A game when I play for that long.

runner4life7 12-19-2005 06:38 PM

Re: Get some sleep tonight - The 400 in 4 Days Challenge
 
ok ive played 44 today up 210 with an ROI of 21.7 %. Started out really bad but then went 1,1,2,3 on my last 4 which really helped and caught some cards. Time to shower then play some more. Good luck to those still going.
