    Well done for completing.

    That will make you 2nd on the leaderboard.

    Short winning run brought to an end by the champ tonight but at least back over 50%.

    I'm 84/165 now.

    OP updated with new entrant Chris_Mc and new 2nd place leaderboard for mr cheez.

    Hello, it's been a while.

    Just reached the halfway house.  286/500.

    Presumably, as it's a challenge for 2016, the challenge for most will be to get it finished?!

    Giving this a bump, haven't had a lot of time for PLO8 whilst the points promos are on as I can make points (and lose cash) much faster on the NLH games.

    My half-marathon result is just above Phantom, I'm somewhere around the 570 mark in games atm but I like to update in round numbers.

    OP Updated including bbMike's appearance on the half marathon leaderboard.

    I managed 3/3 last night in spite of a malfunctioning pointer on my keyboard to be 105/197.

    Guaranteed a profitable 2nd 100 games after a disasterous 1st 100.

    Just completed 200 +1 for luck

                 W              P          %
    108 201 53.73%
    2nd 100 was 58/200, about where I think should be. Hopefully that rate will continue for a while.

    Any more updates before I do the OP?

    The champ and 67Bhoys have gone very quiet...

    Hi all,

    I'm not officially in this but I hit the 500 mark a while ago, with 306/500 for 61.2% or so.

    The next couple of hundred have been way more raggy though and I had a massively slump which has dropped me down to 405/708 for roughly 57.20%

    Hi adz, sorry you are not "officially" in, not that you are losing out on much, like a prize or anything. 

    I have been happy to accept "late" entries, with the only proviso that results should count from after the declaration of joining.

    Still, some good numbers there, WP. Always helps to track your results and feel free to keep posting here.

    When I started this I expected to be playing mainly PLO8 this year with the aim of gettign through 1000, it looks increasingly unlikely I will do that. Partly the bad start didnt help, but then all of the great Rewards Accelerator and Happy Days keep me off the PLO8 tables too.

    As the nights draw in I expect I will get more PLO8 running, I certainly get more enjoyment out of the game and the atmosphere on the tables. May just have to revise my personal target to 500 for the year though.

    Hi Phantom,

    No worries at all, that's cool. The results are from roughly March/April as that's when I started playing on Sky. Had I known about the forum and this thread at the time I'd have signed up then but I only found out about them both in the last couple of months by which point I was already a few hundred games in.

    Yeah, tracking numbers and games is handy. I was seeing a girl a few years back and she was a whizz with excel and made an awesome spreadsheet for me so I've been tracking all my results with that for about 10 years or so.

    Reading that back, it seems I should probably get out more...

    Adzzz

    Ha! And they say romance is dead, right?! Clearly when I lived in Leeds romance was still alive and kicking!

                                 Results in for 1,000 games for ajmilton

    I wasn't expecting miracles which is just as well, because i didn't get one.
    At the start of the year i didn't actually think i would complete 1.000 games.
    as a matter of fact i'm 59 games into the next 1,000

    My realist goal was for 51%, well i fell short of that. 

    According to ger and dodgy knowledge of sharkscope 
    my win rate was 486.....= 48.6%
    fill yer boots Craig lad (ohh, i await  the backlash )

    Regards Alan (plo8 champ obv's not dym's) *this time*
