    Its hard when you lose the first three of the day to pull it back.
    Half way there.

    Unlucky.

    This is the first time you've lost 4 in a row in this challenge.

    So far you have had 3 lots of 4 wins in a row and also a 5-streak. Keep doing as you are, and don't be too disheartened.

    Good luck

    With 14 games to go 11 wins required, so i will have to bolt down the hatches, not fall asleep during the rest of the games and more importantly remember i have registered sometime before half an hour after the game has finished. (Yes. Twice)

    It's a big % cash rate but I'm sure you can do it.

    Good luck

    As i decide to actually partake in my challenge.

    Game by Game commentary.

    Game 88, 3rd.
    Big Blind using their chips well knowing i couldn't call, slight scare when Calling a 2BB short stack push from the button with 4 left. AQ against their Q8 of course the 8 came prolonging the agony, until they eventually ran into the Big Stacks Aces.

    10 from 13 required

    Game 89, 4th
    Fairly standard until 4 left, problem is you need to keep up in these games, its surprising how quickly they get away. As short stack pushed A 4 in the Big Blind's 8 7. The 8 and the 7 came for good measure.
    They had the chips to call maybe it was too loose a push.

    10 from 12 required

    Game 90, 1st
    Over in the middle of level 3, could have gone worse if the double barrel bluff was called early on. Kings came and held.

    Game 91, 5th
    with 5 left a blatantly wrong shove with Q9s was called by AQ and lost leaving the stack crippled.

    10 Games remain, 9 wins required, i reckon i could get 20/1 on completing this.

    Game 92, 3rd

    Other than a spot where I pushed when I believe you should be doing with any 2 and thankfully didn’t get the call. The game went ok.

    8 from 9

    Game 93, 4th

    level 8 with the blinds at 200/400 and 4 left. 685 chips deep in the Big Blind you just got to go with A6 sometimes K9 is a better hand.

    8 Games Remain, 8 Wins required. Good luck with that.

    Game 94, 4th.

    Sometimes you just have to accept defeat especially when you make a stupid push with 4 left, not sure what op had just that neither my 6 or 3 hit.

    No point in continuing to 101 games, i could try and claim a moral victory of the rake beating me and not the game but that would be just futile.

    For the August challenge i will be looking for suggestions.

    Unlucky @coo1-um good effort but beating the rake in dym's is not easy. Good luck with your next challenge PL08 maybe?

    Unlucky @coo1-um. Can I suggest changing the challenge from '101 £2.20 DYM challenge' to '51 £2.20 DYM challenge' then you would have nailed it. :D

    TBH i doubt anyone would notice if i did. Good idea for next time it could be over in 6 games, 1023 games or an infinite challenge like my other,

    Just ran a few figures i reckon you are at least 127x better than me at PLO8.
    Why would i do that?
