How many hands was that Chuck? Win rate?

Just a thought, you could try multi-tabling 2 $50 tables until you get to $200, when you start on 2 $100 tables. It would be less boring and you don't risk losing the whole thing on one hand. (Although that might be against the spirit of what you're doing, maybe you HAVE to lose it eventually.)

so what exactly do you do? start at the highest level you can possible buy in? like lets say you have $10 and the .10/.25 the minumum is $10. so you start there, then when you're at $20, buy in at .25./50 and so on?

I suck at it :) Though I might practice a little... It would be less boring and you don't risk losing the whole thing on one hand. (Although that might be against the spirit of what you're doing, maybe you HAVE to lose it eventually.) <---yeah...I think just so I do actually make something out of this, I might stop at 200NL if I get there. Meh...I'll see how I feel then.

I started at $20NL with the free 20 bucks, then as soon as I made enough to buyin for maximum at the next stakes level, I moved up (ie $50 for $50NL). I definitely wouldn't suggest this...I'm just dicking around with some bonus money :)

oh i know you are, i was just wondering what you were doing cause i was thinking of screwing around too and seeing how far i could get. I play at absolute and the lowest limit is .5/.10 with a min buy in of $4 and a max of $20. I was thinking of taking $4 from my bankroll and seeing how far it gets me. I just didnt know if you grind it out at .5/.10 untill you hit $10(the minumum buy in for the next level .10/.25) or $50 the max buyin for that level.

Nicely done. Are these all 6-max tables? Seems quite tight, so I'm thinking you're 10-maxing it. At a 10-seater those win rates are really good. But I don't understand how you can keep interest just playing one hand every 5 minutes. I've been playing 3 and still have plenty of time to surf Cardschat and write emails at the same time...

Remarkably consistent Won $ WSF % across the levels.

ty sir. And they're 8 max (a titan specialty).

I probably would lose interest, except these are the highest stakes I've played in a while. My actual bankroll isn't big enough for 50NL right now, and I get a nice buzz playing 100NL :)

Heh, hadn't noticed that. Weird :/

Wow! Keep it up ChucktS! :)

And I will!

I'm working today, but it's about to rain so I might get a half day and get a chance to play again. Love my job :) Don't have to work on rainy days :D

Crash and burn :(

Bad play + bad luck + more bad play = I'm BUSTO!

I went down to about $100 total, then all the way down to ~$30. I clawed back to about $80, but went bust soon after :/

So for the next $20 bonus, the record to beat will be $133.89 for me.
