    @garyqqq and king2600.. yeah perhaps you're right. I was considering doing this either in january after my exams for a 2months max period, or wait until I finish year 2 and start it in the summer. Obviously the good thing with starting it in summer is that I'll have around 4months to do it, and no uni at all, and therefore could set a more achievable challenge. The good thing about starting it in January is that IT'S ONLY 3 MONTHS AWAY. 

    @rancid ty. Not sure what'd happen at 100nl, but I don't want to just carry on playing 25/20nl for the rest of my life, may as well give this **** a go. 

    ty for the comments. I'll reconsider.................................

    another pro of having it in the summer is I get to try learn more and more, and in no rush either.

    in order to have a chance you would have to be much more aggressive with your br 50buyins is too many in this time frame. i dont think nl100 is going to be tough really.  i found there wa a big jump between 100 & 200 on other sites though, with 200+ regs being more more aggressive both pre&postflop

    @lol yeah that's what I've seen others say. At 200 regs are more aggro and don't call as much, and play vs villains perceived range bla bla. But yeah you're right ty.

    It's possible if you are a decent player and you don't run terribly.

    i'd definitely say doing it over the summer would be best to give yourself the best charge of succeeding without jeopardising uni! and that way you could always make it a 3 month thing or something to give yourself a bit more time, gl.

    quick update.

    I will be doing a challenge v.similar to this, but after some thought it'll have to take place in summer. I have too much work to do and I still want to have a life right now so it's gonna have to take a back seat for now. In the meantime I'll still be playing mtts on sky etc...

    I think the challenge will be this:

    start with a $2k bankroll and begin by playing 25p/50p, and moving up to 100nl when I get around 4-5k. The overall aim will be to make $8k profit (overall bankroll of $10k) within a 2/3 month period (haven't decided). So I'll start a new thread in May sometime ;-) If I fail, then I fail...such is life. If I succeed, well, pints on me at the next SPT. Until then..... adios.

    (ofc I'll still be posting on the forum)
