Started with a $1/$2nl challenge, now we're here.
😮WARNING!! IMA 2+2 VIRGIN!! FIRST DAY AT THIS!! FIRST THREAD!!
The Goal is Simple - $40k in One Year (
Folding flop wow…if that’s a serious statement.
Also in 1/3 nl, my range is quite wide calling $3 (or raising) near button. I crush these guys post flops. Seeing cheap flops has been gd strategy over the years.
Never folding for $3 w 10s7s in lj after one limp and 2 tight players to my left.
Fold turn, on board w.
I fold. Sb folds and shows 24 for 2 pair.
Never know bout Villain. Wanted to ask but didn’t wanna ask if u know what I mean. Didn’t want him to think I was sweating it even tho I was curious.
Someone asked what I had and just said “pocket pair”.
The longest 5 hours of my life w 2 days to go.
Trying to log more hours each month than month before. We got to.
We wanna give this challenge a serious shot. First couple months played too much 2/5 and not enough 1/3. If we really want to try to achieve this we need to put in more work. Started off not trying.
Try 3 or 4 in $40k challenge. Lost track.
Maybe we start trying now.


$38 hour is so sick. Omg may b the best. We going for $40s.
ray, focusing on hourly with such a small sample is not wise
SMALL SAMPLE SIZE?
Do I need another 20 years of tracking? Been playing and tracking for 20 years. Before this challenge started I assumed my hourly wd b $30ish in 1/3. Thus, I just need to log hours. Thats it. Just sit down and put in the time.
Appreciate the post tho.
SLIGHT lol MISHAP
We 1 hour short of logging more hours this month than last month.
Had to leave the poker room out of frustration today. 1 hour short!!!
Hero Q10 vs A5 ($140)
AQ10 flop.
Pot $10 ish. Seat 4 overbets $20, we raise $115. That puts him all in. He calls.
1:10p ish table 1.
We’re hu and “Run it twice” AFTER the flop. Pot $260 ish
Ran out first board fine. He burned then turned a Q, burned then river brick.
I scoop the first board. No problem.
Second board is the problem.
He burns and tries to give us another flop! lol
I said hold up! We just get the turn and river. He picks it up flop and burns again! Also, not sure if cards r in order or what, but some players thought he burned twice.
River 5
I mentioned that it all seemed wrong. Player next to me, seat 6 said it was wrong. We carry on.
I leave shortly after. Just not in right head space after that to play. Tell the floor in charge to check camera. He says he will send u an email to Poker Room manager.
1 hour tomo or nah?
Sounds like dealer needs to go back to dealing school before working a live game.
Mistakes happen, but my gdness.
During the same down he did the same thing w another aiotf. No lie. Same seat 4 and seat 8. Seat 8 got beat and he too questioned. That time I think it was right and only one burn. But my gdness.
This stuff doesn’t even seem believable but no cap.
EOM UODATES




What is the rake/jackpot drop? I would think anything above $30/hr at 1/3 is really good and $35+ is crushing. You should definitely be playing more 2/5 at this point if you can.

Looking for spots in 2/5. Will jump in if line up ++ev for me. Roll still iffy.
Thirty three thousand two hundred seventeen dollars away.
W 9 months left and a hourly of $38, I wd need to log 98 hours a month to get there.
Well, we know what we gotta do.
Not sure how much longer we can post chips where not dipping to life roll. For now, we can.
Off to a great April and it’s not an April fools.
+300ish after a couple hours of 1/3n.
Man I don’t hv the highest vpip or whatever, but the hands I play dayum I win at a high clip it seems.
Anything u guys wanna read or see more of? Want to make the thread as transparent as possible.
+410 on just a couple hours first day of April!
If I can get out early and enjoy the day, I will. If I need to play longer, I’ll do that too.
410 after 2hours is gd w me.

April gonna b a turning point to either we do it or chances r slim. Already behind pace, but it’s simply me not putting in the time. We will see.
You didn't earn $410 though, you earned your hourly x 2 hours.
Leaving early because you are up is a terrible long term strategy.

Follow up:
The poker room manager reviewed tape.
*Btw, this new manager is doing a fantastic job!
Met w him this morning about the “run it twice” debacle. He will be issuing me $125 for the mess up. The second board was backed up by a card. Also, he said no rake was taken lol
