Re: 15 BB challenge time again
I guess it didn't go well, since you are at the 0.01/0.02???

[ QUOTE ] I'm still stuck upstairs at the computer (downstairs ripped apart - don't ask) with a cold, with PP bonus to work off - what the hell...

All I had to do is e-mail support, e-mail them again to tell them yes, they had to have sent the e-mail because it used my real name, and then e-mail them again to tell them an IGM-Pay bonus was not an acceptable substitute and I would be withdrawing all my money. Suddenly, I was eligible for the bonus after all. Typical Party. |

Re: 15 BB challenge time again
So, am I the only one who hasn't busted out of the Challenge yet?
Day 2 (is multiday play against the rules? ARE there any rules?) featured me suffering a severe cold-decking, getting my last $9 in at the 3/6 table, and tripling up to start a rush to...well, I'm slightly up at 5/10 now. |

Re: 15 BB challenge time again
I didn't bust, i got severly bored of playing .25/.50 for 2hours and only having $3 won. Lmfao!
i got to 14.25 but then a weak tight guy called down my second pair which dropped me to about 11 lol! Ill try again later. |

Re: 15 BB challenge time again
so how does it work? You start 15/bb @ .02/.04 and when you reach the next table stake .05/.10 15/bb you move? rinse repeat?

Re: 15 BB challenge time again
Pretty much, but you can start at whatever level you feel comfortable with. I usually start out at least .25/50 because like POKher described if you get into a rut at one level it can be a frustrating. As far as when to stop goes, always set a target limit and stop when you hit it or wimp out. I've have never made it past 5/10 while shooting for 10/2 (b/c I suck!). I've never seen guidlines on when to stop short of your target but I wimp out when I fall to less than 12BB of the level below me. (e.g. @ 5/10, I'll stop if I fall to $48 (12 BB of 4/8)). I'm sure there are purists who will insist on hitting their goal or bust out - I hope to be there one day.

Re: 15 BB challenge time again
OK, I'll bite...never did this before...starting at .25/.50 (I usually play .5/1, so I feel like this is a good place to start, and hopefully get to 5/10. Wish me luck!

[/ QUOTE ] This is my third time doing the Challenge and I finally made it past 1/2 (probably something to do with it being my first time doing it at Party, with the combination of fishier tables and having to start at .5/1). Had to leave off at 5/10 up to $180 after being down to $80. I'll pick it up again tonight if I don't hit a B&M instead (yay, cold's gone!). The plan was to keep playing at a level until I advance or bust out, but if I make it to 10/20+ I might stop if I get down to $100, allowing for a nice profit on the $15 "entry fee." |
