Here we go again

Well I have been in negotiation with my sponsors Pokerheaven this week and it looks like another challenge is on. I dont know the specifics of this yet but I will be doing a limit hold’em bankroll challenge to rival the one that I did late last year and early this year.

I have been re-arranging things not just with my working life but in other areas too so I will be able to find the necessary hours I feel. I have a fancy to attempt to turn €500 into €50,000 starting at 1-2 limit and multi-tabling.

I have been messing around multi-tabling NLHE this week and doing very badly. Timing out twice in the space of twenty minutes is hardly good. You may say that anyone can do this but I was playing TWO tables. Yes thats right……TWO LOUSY TABLES!!!!!

Thing was on the first occassion I had AK pre-flop and there had already been a raise from the cut-off and I was on the button and the second time I held 10-10 on a 10-7-4 rainbow flop and it was bet and raised before it got to me……shit!!!!

Lucky this was only for peanuts although it is because it is for peanuts that it happened at all. I have been through this before and I really struggled to get off the ground last time and I really dont fancy doing that again.

Its time to admit the truth….I cannot multi-table small stakes NLHE games and simply bleed money aware through indiscipline. But limit is something else, I reckon I could play my default game and beat the low stakes games and with rakeback added then I think I will do this.

I really want to turn a very small amount of money into something substantial and then write about it or do it as I am playing in the same way that Chris Ferguson did. I think that I will start with €500 and play 1-2 which is only 250 big bets and it is possible that I could lose this but I dont fancy starting any lower. I think that with rakeback added then I stand a very strong chance of doing this.

Should be fun…..see ya soon
