    Still on a downward spiral.
    Introducing challenge 10

    An £11 buy in for all 3 formats.

    Details to follow. About to jump into the new plo8 game.

    The thread is not called Busto again for nothing.

    Bad play after bad play followed by bad bet after bad bet, has left the balance in freefall.

    However still just about enough to play, and have a dabble on tonight's games.

    oh and then they is another challenge 3 update. 6 games this time.

    Working on the update. Half the spread sheet is right but the other is a little off so I need to figure that out.

    So many of these challenges / diaries die with bad results leading to a lack of interest in updating negative figures but as Eric Idol once said.



    My reasoning behind these posts is twofold.
    1. To show you can still play the games you want without having to deposit.
    2. For my own accountability to myself.

    Balance as of last night was £19.95 a tenner won in the rewards freeroll helped double was was the previous figure.

    2 errors from my point of view.
    • Not withdrawing when I had the chance, as I was always going to end up back here at some point. That withdrawal would not have been re-deposited. As a rule over £200 at least 75% should have been withdrawn. But that ship has sailed.
    • Not posting daily reports. These will be returning from today.
    On a positive note. Nice to be reminded of previous glories in @Tikay10 daily update ‘a year ago today’


    "Readers of the entertaining "coo1-um £0.00 Challenge" will have seen yesterday Mr Um @coo1-um noting that he's racked up 60 All-In Sats without a single win, but he ended on an optimistic note by writing "Guess the luck has to change there sometime...". And how right he was, he won an All_In Sat to last night's Main, and then.... won the Main for £1,164. Very pleased for him, though it sorts of ruins the Diary. So selfish. Excellent effort by runner-up @aj880 too, been here 9 years & his best two results have both been in the last few weeks, 3rd in a stack Builder for £900, & now 2nd in a Main for £550.

    Was about to knock the betting into touch for a while. Then this happens.



    They get you at every turn.

    The time has come to jump back on this train. just been scraping by.
    albiet i am cutting a carriage or two loose, meaning it cant be my final challenge.

    sticking with the 3, and dropping the overall win/losses as its irrelevant for these challenges

    Tournaments.

    I think the only additional one i have cleared since the last update was the £5.50 mega stack on Saturday.

    Plenty of these planned for the upcoming week, as i make an all out assault on the main prize. plenty of games helps with the scoring system used.



    4 Card


    A recent £2.20 plo8 win has moevd the bar down 1.



    Weight

    Maybe this is the real reason this is re-booted as i have done virtually nothing with this the last post.

    ok so 18 micro masters games so far this week, was hoping for a push on these but other things took president, currently in 19th place in the league, top 10 perhaps.

    On a brighter note i noticed i finished 4th last week with probably less that the 18 so far this.

    Not sure where this challenge is going, the lack of accountability from sky poker to let me know what games ive played does not help.

    Weight in takes me back to my 145lb starting weight, got to take this seriously at least and i cant blame sky poker at all for this one.
