Default Re: The Official ADHOC Challenge Thread.

Playing Poker on X-mas and Easter have got to be +EV, for multiple reasons.

I made the um "mistake" of getting hitched to a christian, so even though she converted, I still have to spend X-mas with the inlaws.

Why wasn't that mentioned at my wedding?

Do you think you can tone down the number of hands required at every level by around 15%? On the .5/1.00 I average a shade over 60hands/hour at a full table. Your requirements give me negative time to sh1t, smoke a cigarette, read the paper, watch the entire LoTR trilogy (extended editions), do some wash, my taxes, and have some good lovin with the lady friend.

15% is too much.

i can't even fathom 16 tables. currently i play 3 tables. i could do 4 but i like having that other 1/4 of my screen for 2+2 or msn or something.

i would also think 8-tabling would be uber confusing. when it gets to this many, do reads have anything to do with it or is it just standard plays for each situation? i find sometimes even at 3-tables i time out of a hand because i get too focused on a big pot at one table.

2 6max is about the same as 3 full in hands/hour.

I'll be doing the 8-table challenge at some point in the next week, at which point I'll consider whether the hand totals are even possible. But I'm not going to revise them before I give it a try, because that'd be lame.

for the 8-table level, you will need to play 63 hands an hour, on each table. That seems impossibly high. Not that i wont enjoy watching you fail, but i thought you should know.


peace
