no the detail and the challenge are up there...

Don't finish in the bottom 3 in 4 9-handed S&Gs that pay 3 spots.

but they told me to carefully read the task details which tells you totally something different!


Must play in real-money single-table 9-handed sit & gos.
Must finish **1st through 6th.**1st 2nd or 3rd isnt top 3???
Matrix tournaments not included.




its aaron bartley's sit-n-go by the numbers

as I recall, "Five common hold'em leaks" for 300 points is very easy to repeat over and over relatively quickly.

Oh, so you're saying you can complete the same task every month? I didn't even check, but I was thinking once you completed a task that you couldn't do that one again.

you can complete them all up to 10x each, one right after the last if you like.

IMO Fergussen's preflop challenge is by far the easiest. I got that done 10 times right away when the academy came out.

make sure you do not change the challenge during the sit n go or it won't work

^ this.

Also, they can sometimes take a long time to update depending on how busy their servers are, etc. And from memory there wasn't any trick to that part of the challenge - I completed it 10 times. You're definitely playing real money, 9-player NLHE STTs? I don't know if the NLHE bit matters or not but I know they definitely work.

A couple of these you'll complete repeatedly without knowing it.

so you have to wait for it to update to move onto another challenge?

Yeah - make sure the item is showing as completed before you load a different challenge, sounds like that's your problem.

I have had the challenges take 1 to 2 days to update that it was completed. If you waited that long then you might need to do it over again.
