"Tilt dies hard"

sick challenge imo, GL

Keep at it and you will succeed.

-The required minimum winnings balance should be AT LEAST +3BI per day -I am required to withdraw from playing whenever I lose maximum -2BI

Should probably change these

GL with the challenge though

disagree with you posting it on a separate blog bro! Post it here trust me we all like to read about beginners progressing no matter if we make $8 or $800 per hour.

A small tip: I wouldn't set daily winning targets, that will leave you to play 100 hands one day and 15,000 other day and is generally inefficient because poker is a lot of variance. e.g. even people that crush the games and their graph is seemingly a straight line have 10BI swings in a day.

Also I wouldn't do the freezing $5, you need all you can have to move up to NL5 where your winrate will be pretty much the same but the difference isn't that big between that and NL2. There is a jump in skill between NL5 and NL10 bt you need bankroll to take shots, or at least be able to scan tables when you feel great and sit with whales to your right.

Goals I'd make for you:

- 3,000 hands per day
- 1 Video per day
- 5 hands where you didn't know what to do posted to hands section with your analysis
- 15 minute break every time you are 2BI down
- 2 hour break when you are 5BI down.

I'd take a day off in the middle as well, or do e.g. 2 days 3k hands 1 day 1k hands to avoid burnout if you aren't used to putting in volume in a consistent basis.

I agree with this 100% I only went to the comments to say that I don't see the reason for you to post it in a seperate blog. Also everything Lemon said - although I assumed you were playing 10c/20c / 25/50c as thats what it says i your blog but is it 1c/2c? (ie 0.01/0.02 not 0.1/0.2)

Good luck

Hey guys!,

there's a 2-day break between this and the summary of my day 1, so that's a bad thing.
the good thing is - it's there on the blog and so I could say that 'the game has begun'.

@aernout, Enigma & hording - thank you guys
@LemOn[5thF] & KeyleK_uk - thank you very much for your feedback, I really appreciate it. for the time being though I haven't been down for more than 1 BI, so that was good and the rule didn't need any amendments. the limit for won BI will be changed [I think], also the amount of hands per day, but that's just day 1 so I don't want to make any rush decisions.

thanks again, I must say I'm quite positively surprised by the feedback - I didn't expect a newfag to get so much "warmth" in response GL & HF
