erm...if you do get that reference, then I dont want to know you
failed level 3 - I 3bet ATs (after a 5x iso raise) leaving a pot sized bet behind. flop was xsxs4. I shoved, and villain snapped me off with As4s. thats all for tonight. may have another go tomorrow. Kinda wishing I didnt gamble so much on the last level on my first attempt now.
am on MC 2 everyone has left me table so will call it a night am on £4-91, i believe the min to sit at the table is £5 so when i play again tomorrow do i just start with £5 again
Played a couple of pretty cards and pretty much left with no options but to barrell each street to spin the challenge as quick as possible and hope for the best lol.

This hand got me over the hurdle at this limit. Flop helped me get the stacks.
Hand History #716610276 .50/1
As earlier, I decided to have a spin with a hand and luckily found an opponent willing to gamble as well with a lesser hand.
Lost pretty soon after this hand vs same opponent with tens against kings on 7 high flop.
It's an interesting challenge as the reality is 'it's only as fiver lost' but the mindset is that as you move up the levels, the money means more and more and you have to embrace the gambler and not nit it up by playing with more scared money.
The hardest part was definitely .25/.50 where players are sat with £100 and we're sat there with £25.
My tip is to aim to play as the later stages of an mtt where you're short stacked at these levels and basically look for a spot to get it in as early as possible with your stack!
So I finally managed to get past level 1!! Bust one more fiver before doing it though and lost a small pot after this hand before I could stand so only left with £11ish so about +£1
I'm having a bit of trouble spinning my £10 @ 20NL... been grinding it away for a long time now and got about £16 with my peak being about £19.... I'll get there!

Attempt one was a total
Was about £1.50 from the barrier so obv decide to 4bet shove 96s. I mean, how can they call? Larson had AQ and rebinked my flop bink. How very rude
Attempt 2 was completed with:
