    Played for 2 or 3 hours last night. Same deal- £10 a time on two 5p/10p tables.

    At one stage I'd pulled back to practically my starting roll- then I dipped again. Ended the session where I started- about 10 quid down overall on my original BR of £100.

    Back to the drawing board...

    Gonna give it another go tonight. To think I span £50 up to £80 the night before the challenge and now I'm struggling to get going on the lower levels.

    As they say in internet circles- grrrrrr....

    Bit up and down yesterday and this morning especially when I lost my stack with Jacks on 8 high board, the other chap had queens.  Hey ho.

    Better tonight, in with £4 on 5/10 and got that up to £23.

    Starting roll: £50
    Current roll: £88.86
    P/L: £38.86

    + 136 ON THE DAY, all bankroll challenge stuff as its before midnight....

    I didnt realise early on this afternoon, was on 3 x nl30 tables.......but only had a £78 bankroll to play with.....

    I ended that mini session £6 up.....

    But overall, + 136, which makes me + 114 on a starting roll of £100, so 214 to play with.....


    Honest there.....is there some sort of penalty? I really didnt think about what I had to play with.....78...n i laid 90.....dok me!!!

    Who's the rule man?

    Today was a disaster - played nl20 and managed to bluff most of my stack when villain calls my shove with K high sigh - grinded away and got it back - then moved to nl30 - few bluffs didn't work out so was down there - then moved to nl40 with doh and ozzie - great crack but lost a bit when I had 10 10 v daveyz who had 23 and hit his trip 3's lol!! Then got stacked on a x78 board with 77 - villain had 88 gg - BR now down to £66.99 - couldn't believe I had so much left tbh.

    great BR challenges guys with like 2/3BIs.

    like 10BI minimum cos even thos both of you can crush those levels you can still get totally ana led by the deck and then your are BR busto...

    20nl and grind it out guys.....when im on a bad run/tilted off rolls i go down there even tho im overrolled for it as punishment but yeah its not really cos its so easy down there its like free money.

    I've got £52 in the locker and I'm aiming for £100. Will be aiming to do it on the SNG tables as I prefer it to cash.

    Took down a few SnG's and then won tonights £150 guaranteed Headhunter for a current bank roll of £122.
