Stuck in the Micros: Doug Polk $100-to-$10K Online Poker Bankroll Challenge Grinds On
Do you think Doug can achieve his goal in the micro-stakes?

Doug Polk knows what he's doing is going to be hard. I do think he can do it by starting off at the right stake level with an occasional buy in at a table slightly larger then he should be playing with also hes gonna need 2 be playing tournaments not jsut ring games. the ring is where you lose the fastest
If you`re a good player,you can win anywhere,,,,high-stakes,mid-stakes,freerolls,,,,I`m sure he will do well.:icon_flow
I think he can do it it's just a matter of time , Doug has a lot of experience which allows him to do more ambitious challenges.
Of course he can, as long as there isn't a time set for it. Sometimes I feel like the lower skill set at micro stakes leads to more variance, which means trying to move up too fast can kill the bankroll.
He had a huge meltdown last week on his Twitch stream. People kept asking "why no hud?. He went nuts and started banning everyone that asked, haha. Few mins later he gets a new subscriber with the screen name...whynohud. It was extremely entertaining!
Btw...he's streaming today and BR is up to a little over 2K. He definitely gets there from here. Grinding the micros is tough though and this challenge proves it.
Doug finished the challenge last night. Played super long season, moved up to NL500 and it was only a matter of time before he hit 10K. Hate it's over, was a lot of fun to watch!
Pretty impressive going from a $3k bankroll to $10k in one session.
