Re: An ADHOC Challenge (Sort of)
During hour 5 I swung down to even but now battled back to +60BB. Just ordered some pizza and I'm feeling almost as good as hour 1. I don't think my play has deteriorated at all.

Hour 9
2689 hands +11 BB Well now I'm beginning to feel it. My bum hurts from sitting on this crappy fold out chair, my eyes are feeling weird, my basement is freezing, and I just keep swinging up and down without much progress. I sure don't mind the breakeven stretch, but a little incentive/motivation would be nice for this effort. Played in the 40k guaranteed and busted out just before the first break without trying my hardest. This may be harder than I thought to make the whole 24hrs. |

Re: An ADHOC Challenge (Sort of)
Halfway there.
3878 hands -19BB I'm getting used to the fatigue, and still playing the 10/20. Although I'm still not making much progress in terms of $$$, I still feel I'm playing a decent, B-ish game. One friend is still in a rut that he began the challenge at (about -100BB at 2/4) and the other is about +30BB and now playing 6 tables of 2/4. I have also decided to play 3/6 if I end up moving down as well.Having no bathroom in the basement really sucks, and makes for some quick urine runs. I'm halfway done but its definately not downhill from here. |

Hour 15
4778 hands +61BB I've hit another level of fatigue. My head hurts from too much sugar/caffine and quite frankly I'm getting bored of playing. The rest of the way is not going to be easy. |

What were Bison's original rules for an ADHOC challenge?

Re: An ADHOC Challenge (Sort of)
I feel your pain bro!
I couldn't handle more than 10 hours i reckon. I think i'd probably take a day off before one of these challenges so im hyped up to play. Guess you've no bonuses to clear whilst doing this? PokerAlliance? no? POKhER. p.s. Take a ten minute break to walk around, you'll get pressure sores [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] |

What were Bison's original rules for an ADHOC challenge? [/ QUOTE ] I tried searching for the thread but came up empty. The "rules" involved having a minimum hands/hour in order for the challenge to be considered complete. There may have been other stipulations but I can't remember them. |

Hour 17
5512 hands +71 BB I think I've really hit the wall. My eyes are getting harder and harder to focus and I fell sick from drinking an entire 2 liter of Hawiian Punch. The sun is now rising. I'm still playing 10/20 and think I am playing fine, it just takes me a few seconds longer to read the board/make the decision/see anything. These 10/20 6max games are good 24hrs a day. On my first ADHOC I quit after 14 hours and -250ish BB at 5/10 6max. I thought then I could have finished if I wasn't so frustrated but at this point I'm not so sure. |
