    Haven't even completed the first set of 1000 games yet, but put me down as I'll get some overlap equity!

    GL all.

    OP Updated with a results table.

    All those up to this point will have all results from 1-Jan-2016 00:00:00 count.

    Still open for any new entries up to the end of this month.

    Simply post here and your results will count from the next day.

    Don't forget you have double or even treble "challenge overlap equity" if you are in Karen's challenge and/or RLT's 1000 game challenge.

    How often do you want us to update?

    Daily, or Weekly, at the end of the week?

    Played 40 tonight, won 25, (62.5%) but will be playing tomorrow and Sunday, too.

    Whenever you like Tikay.

    I'm sure you will race to 1000 quicker than most

    Started better in Macacgirls challenge with results in PLO and NLHE suggesting I may have picked the wrong challenge (short run results oriented thinking - I hope).

    Only 3/6 in PLO8.

    I'll probably do regular updates through January until the deadline for entries closes.

    62.5% very nice - sustainable over 1000?

    How about a sweepstake on the winning score?

    Score for the win, scorer for the tiebreak?

    I'll start this tomorrow if ok.
    I'll reset sharkscope stats and only play plo8 you see.
    Will make it easier for me to keep track without having to write anything down.
    I'll be able to post results every 100 games then without worrying about it being accurate or not, as it will be.

    If I was being picky or Tikay I would have to say outrageous of course not - totally against T's and C's.

    but...

    seeing as you wrote most of the T's and C's and they also say this...

    "You will need to keep track of your own score and update here, in this thread, as and when you want."


    and...

    "Please, please, please note. This is entirely for fun, not to be taken seriously. No gripes or moans are necessary."

    Then what the heck - do whatever is easy for - I'll reset your start date to 3rd Jan.

    Pfff 60.6%  now't to shout about 
    Get a grip bhoys,   You won't beat the champ (guaranteed)
    Oh, and bhoys, after your 6/7 week stint in the USA.
     It wouldn't surprise me that, when you returned, that you 
    may bow out of this 1,000 game challenge, and concede
    victory to who you know, to be, is your plo8 superior. (Me the Champ boom)

    Oh, and while  your'e out there in the land of fantasy
    Say hello to Mickey and Pluto for me.

    Regards Alan (plo8 who you will never beat champ)

    I take it from the lack of an update,  that you can't beat 60.6% 

    If you could, you would have plastered the figures all over place.
    I will relax on my holiday,  come back refreshed,  and ready to go.
    When I return, I expect that you, not having been able to get anywhere near 60%, will have given up the ghost. 

    As for Mickey and Pluto,  I will tell them that the king of cloud cuckoo land says hello.

    OP Updated.

    Welcome aboard Mrs Duck.

    Tikay is still the leader for games played and winrate after posting his first session of the year results.

    I am 8/15 which is actually a bit of a recovery for me after a 4/10 in Macacgirls challenge.

    Still plenty of time to enter if you want to give yourself a target and join in with the banter.

    GL.
