Default 60k in 60 days part 3

hey everyone,
well i am going to do anouther one of these 60k in 60 day quests. same deal as the other two before me. 60 days, 120,000 hands, 2k hands a day, and $1k a day at 10-20 6max.

I have been playing bigger and other games for a while but for a variety of reasons i am wanted to play this for a while and it seemed like a good time for the quest. so wish me luck and if you guys are interested at all i will post updates every few days. if no one gives a [censored], well then that is cool too and i won't post many updates.

anyways tonight will be day one, so i am off to play those hands.
dave

wo that sounds like one hell of a quest. i am not sure if i envy that opportunity or am glad that i do not have it. good luck tho. damn that is a lot of poker... and being somewhat of a hermit... but sounds like more better than working for the man...lot o cash too.

When are you starting? (Edit: I'm a tard, n/m)

I'm down for a head-to-head challenge to see who can do it first/earn more. With a little side wager of course...

Let me think about this.

$60k is 3,000 Big Bets. At 2 BB/100, I need 150,000 hands in 60 days to do this or 2,500 hands per day. At 600 hands per hour 8-tabling, I'd need 4.5 hours per day of playing to do this.

Hmmm, yeah, screw that. I don't love money that much. Yeah, maybe I do. Let me sleep on this... I'll be in Vegas until Sunday, so I'll have to start after that.

Are you or are you not counting rakeback?

I don't know. I probably woould. Not sure if that's cheating or not. I've got to go back to the original threads, but I don't think either Schneids or Gonores made their goals though they both topped 40k I think (I'm pretty sure they didn't include rakeback).

The only problems with this is that I will be out of town this weekend (getting a place in Vegas) and I'll be MIA the first weekend in Jan (moving into said place) so I'm not sure how those days would be counted. Part of the challenge is going 60 straight days. If I do this, part of my challenge is going to include 45 minutes of exercise per day, especially since I now have to go to physical therapy for my right leg (muscles got screwed up from not exercising enough).

Edit: Another potential problem is that I want to keep mixing in $20/40 and $30/60 into my game, which kind of makes the challenge easier. It's much better as a straight $10/20 6max challenge.

Btw, how many tables are you playing?

I think the goal is achievable with RB included, but not without it

Gonores got 3/4th way there, Schneids a little more than half IIRC

I just checked it out and apparently including rakeback adds $11,000 to ones bottom line. Hmmm, I guess that does make a pretty big difference.
