Default The one month challenge

You can shorten it to a week if you want to be a pansy about it. Sort've like doing crunches with you hands on your legs - that said, I've never gone one week.


Do not look at your cashier for one month straight. Simple, just play good cards and look at the end. At the very least you'll learn something about yourself.

Assuming you're playing at a limit you know you win at, this idea is beyond good. Thx J_V.

OK JV, I'm in, but not until I drop out for good. Otherwise it means very little.

I assume this means no looking at my PokerTracker stats pages either?

Hrm... April 2 is a long way away. I'll think about it some more.

I don't check the cashier screen until I'm done, but it's hard for me not to keep a running tally in the back of my mind while playing.

It's remarkable; I try not to pay attention, but when I'm done with the session (having usually opened and closed 10-15 tables while 4-tabling), I can hazard a pretty accurate guess as to where I'm at.

I hate that.

J_V,

This would be absolutely IMPOSSIBLE for me to do, as you probably know. I'm gonna come over and keep an eye on you, somehow I doubt you can do this.
