I can't believe nobody has cracked this one yet, it's now long long overdue. Right, I'm gonna have another go. C'mon people lets get this thing done. Posted by GaryQQQ
I've been getting back into DYMs recently, will give this another go
I'd like to take a stab at this one... right, 60p level 1 here we go... Posted by smileychop
Good luck.
You'll see plenty of 'unconventional' poker at the 60p level. This hand was played at my 60p table a few minutes ago. On the river player * bet 525 of his 615 stack, then folded to a re-raise. That left him 90 chips, just over half a big blind. Next hand he was auto all-in on the big blind and got knocked-out.

lol, nice table to be at Gary...
Congratulations on your challenge by the way, I've only just caught up on it today. your a total inspiration to amateur players like me, and not just on your good days as well... when you hit that down swing in September it showed everybody how frustrating poker can get sometimes. but you showed if you stick to your own game, strict bankroll and just have fun with it, you can achieve what your after... by the way, when you go to New York, try to take some time out to go to the top of the empire state building... taxi cabs are like ants! Amazing!
Anyways, back to the challenge... level 1 passed, thought it was never going to end... at level 8 we still had 6 players all above 1k chips. I managed to have 4k at that point though, so quite happy with my play.
Phew, level 2 £1.15 out of the way, just barely. min stacks catching cards all the way through this...ahem, including me at one point. (all in post flop, open ended straight draw against pocket aces, getting there on the river) phew again.

Thanks very much. The downswing seemed awful at the time, but looking back now I can see was trivial, nothing more than a temporary blip. Getting only one bad month out of ten is far better than I could have expected. I'll happily accept a ratio of nine good poker months for each bad month for eternity.
Also thanks for the NY tip, we're there for a week so I'll defo be doing that. It's still a year away though; early November 2014.
do you start at the 30p level or the 60p level as reading the posts some are starting at 30p and some ay 60p cheers and i will give it a try .And what if you have removed yourslf from sharkscope?

You start at 60p as I understand it, and according to the OP.
Sharkscope is used to verify claims. If you've blocked yourself I think you'll probably have to get unblocked, otherwise there's no other way of proving you actually did it. If you unblock it you can reset your stats, nobody will be able to see your previous history.
I can't get past level 3 at the moment, gonna keep trying. Good luck.

Right, I'm gonna have another go. C'mon people lets get this thing done.
Edit; First attempt busted in L3 on the bubble, got stacks in with my AK v K8 on K-high flop, 8 on river lol.
