Mal Clarke & Gareth Witty $20 Pokerstars Challenge
Posted by Mal | February 17, 2010 | Posted in: News | Comments (1)This poker challenge is to help mal255 and tiltdonkey16 play more poker and with a purpose and also to structure our coverage of our own play within this site.
Challenge Rules
1. Deposit $20 only into Pokerstars
2. Play $0.01/$0.02 until bankroll reaches $60
3. With fifty buy-ins for $1 + $0.20 SNG’s we can now play them, or stick with cash games.
4. When we reach $120 we are allowed to buy into larger MTT’s no that 100 buy-ins for that level has been reached.
Bankroll Rules
We must move down in limits if we reach less than ten buy-ins for the cash games and normally preserve twenty of more. When we are at the lowest level we must persist until we recover or go busto. As we are only starting with $20 and taking it easy this is not money we cannot afford to lose, therefore busto is not so scary.
We can move up levels in the cash games and take a shot with fifteen buy-ins for the next level up. It is fine, however, to remain at one level if you wish.
We must always have fifty buy-ins for SNG tournaments and one hundred buy-ins for MTTs. If we fall below $60 we must grind back up in cash games.
Feedback
We will discuss our progress and hands in the blogs on the site and in our poker forum.
The challenge begins on March 1st 2010 and will be ongoing from then on.
