Default Re: baronzeus attempts to turn $60 into $15000 (15BB challenge)

That was probably a bad fold. I think if the river was a 4 I would have called-- conceivably he'd play a 5 like that but I don't even know if he'd go 6 bets with that.

Anyhow, because of hands like that it took me 367 hands to get up to enough for 10/20. I almost lost all 150 and at one point I was down to my last $9 after capping a river. Fortunately I won that pot [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Ya this motivated me to try this myself.

Started with $30 at 1/2 moving up to the next lvl when I have 15BB for that level.

19 hands at 1/2 3 handed got me to $61
5 hands at 2/4 got me to $96.50
38 hands of 3/6 got me to $188.50
135 hands of 5/10 got me to $0 was card dead then lost a big pot when AA < 88 for the runner runner straight.
