    These early levels are a minefield lol. I haven't managed better than a level 3 win yet. After this beauty in level 1 I now understand why Devonfish5 advocates folding pocket KK pre-flop at the micros-stakes :)

    Hey guys,

    Gonna ask Kirsty about a replacement prize. The only tournaments of equal value are the two £55 BHs, and the latter is probably a bit late and a bit too crapshooty for some.

    Would people prefer the 9pm £55 BH? Any thoughts on the matter?

    Hi Lambert

    Only a thought. What about changing it to 60p to £100

    My reason is that i havnt seen a £110 game run in ages. Also the 82.50 games do not run a lot.

    Change the prize therefore to 3 £33 Thursday night seats (Or as many as you can get.)

    So levels 1 - 10.

    I know it has been done in the past but dyms have got harder so going from 1-12 could be close to impossible as this thread shows as its been running for ages.

    how do you opt in to this challenge .i'll give it a go.In Response to Re: DYM Laddering Challenge -- Turn 30p into £200 --- Prizes To Be Announced!:
    Right, well I thought I'd get us started off, I've just won a 30p and a 60p one, so I'm up to level 3 now. Don't forget to post how you're doing so the top performers can be in the table EDIT: Just decided to play my £1.15 game and sadly lost... pretty horrible spot when you've got the nut FH.... on a QTJTT board and you're holding AA, to find he has T9... urgh. EDIT: Just realised it wasn't the nut FH, I was also beat by QQ and JJ... but still!!

    How about replacing it with the Sunday ME that has replaced the Primo!
    Starts at 8 pm,which should suit every one.

    Can't hurt to ask I guess but I wouldn't hold my breath, Sunday's main is now the £110 Roller and that's a pretty chunky prize to be giving away.

    You make a lot of good points. Clearly times have changed and tis challenge is just too hard nowadays, and even more so when a few of the levels run so rarely. I'll message Kirsty again about possibly making it a little easier and so maybe like you say reducing it to say a £33 BH seat in line with the fact it'll be easier.
  • stuarty117stuarty117 Member Posts: 1,395
    edited January 2015
    Yea just the fact its been running so long and the best is level 10.

    My best is level 6 i think but havnt tried in ages so would give it another go.

    The brand new £33 B/H starting at 730 on a sunday sounds ideal to me - promotes this challenge and the new tourney at the same time. Plus with the 730 start less impact on working lives.

    Completed level 3!

    I don't think you should make it easier, it is achievable :D

    Posted by mrsduck

    I am not sure if it is achievable as its been going nearly 3 years. Maybe one person could do it but for 3 people to do it it might take another 10 years lol.

    When it was done last time the standard in DYMs was less.

    Plus as i have said i have havnt seen a 82.50 and 110 DYM running recently levels 11 and 12
