Cash Game Challenge Update - over 5500 hands

Monday, September 29th, 2008

After a downswing of about $20 I have been on a heater almost ever since. I crammed in some monster sessions. Poker is always so much easier to do long sessions in when you are doing well. I am getting a little frustrated with Sun Poker as a site, but now I have started this challenge I feel obliged to stick it out. It seems ludicrous after a reasonably successful WCOOP to keep it going. But stubborness to complete the challenge drives me on. Must Complete, Must complete (in my best robotic voice).

Current Balance = $317.15. Total Challenge Profit = $117.15. Total hands played = 5539

Cash Game Update - over 3000 hands

Friday, September 5th, 2008

Things have been going very well on this challenge.  I have crammed in as many sessions as possible before the WCOOP starts on PokerStars, which will be keeping me busy for a few weeks. 

Barring a couple of losing sessions things have generally been going pretty smoothly.  There seems to be plenty of donks on Sunpoker ready to stack off with TPTK or overpairs.   As with all cash games, table selection and patience have been big factors.   If you realise you are on a table of rock hard grinders after half an hour then move on rather than trying to beat the game out of stumborness. 

Current Balance = $258.60. Total Challenge Profit = $58.60. Total hands played = 3109

Cash Challenge Update

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

There is the FTOPS going on at Full Tilt at the moment, so I been focusing on that mostly. I did manage to complete just over 1000 more hands on the cash poker challenge, so that was good. Not exactly setting the world on fire with the profit still, but I suppose that’s better than an overall loss ;)
