It’s now official, Challenge 2

So after checking out various sites, I’ve chosen Grosvenor poker to be my home for this second challenge.

This is my account and you can see it’s on a zero balance, therefore I’ve decided to start with a zero Bankroll. There’s enough free rolls to win a few cents to play little 11c freeze out tournaments and sit n go’s.
Below are the rules, exactly the same as the first challenge.

I can not deposit unless forced to move to a different site, were I am able to withdraw the funds and transfer onto another site.

I can not play any cash game with less than 20 times the Max Buy in. ( 5% )

I must drop down to a lower level if I ever have less than the 20 times the Max Buy in. ( 5% )

I can not play any tournament with above 2% of my Bankroll.

I can not play any Sit n Go with above 2% of my Bankroll.

I must leave the cash table I am playing if I gain more than 1.5 of a buy in.

All freeroll and rakeback deals will be counted towards the total amount of my Bankroll.

I can not withdraw for personal use.

The challenge may continue if / when its complete up to any amount I feel fit to play on to.

Day 12

Sigh....... Yes that says it all. Even with another couple of hours play tonight, I went to reg for the €3k Sunday Freeroll and says I’m still not played enough raked hands to qualify. I did however qualify for the €1000 tomorrow afternoon at 5pm. I’m going to have to play some more to get me into the other game and if I have the same luck like I did tonight, then I’ll be lucky if I have enough to sit back down again when it’s time to grind again next week. Today’s session was painful and these stakes are driving me insane. I started to look at some Mtt’s and I may still be tempted to play those instead. They do have tournaments for like 55c and €1 and not forgetting my ticket to. But these little staked tournaments run like a normal bigger tournaments with 10 minute blinds and a decent starting stack, so don’t be surprised if I get side tracked in the near future. Binking one of those should get me out of the 1/2c cash games which are killing me. Today was another bad day. I ran a b...

Day 11

I played for about 2 hours today and I was up then down and up again, but nothing really happened for me today. No big hands, poor player pool with limpers and calling stations, so I couldn’t bluff quite as often as I like. But I went with it and ended with a small loss overall for today. I think I might of done enough to play the €3k freeroll on Sunday, but I’m planning on playing Friday, possible two tables if it’s busy enough.

Day 7.

28th July and I’m sat in two tournaments. I have both screens up and the first to start is the €1 flip to the €110 Sunday major. By some miracle I win my first table of 9 players with JJ and then it’s down to about 23 players who’ve all won their tables. Sadly I do not make it past that round and after checking, there’s still 6 players left after the two previous rounds. I knew it was going to be extremely lucky to win a seat, but it’s worth doing in the future when I have more funds. Talking of funds, the €3k Free-Roll starts and with around 470 runners and I’ve got my obligatory 1000 chips I now try to play the very best poker I’ve ever had. Playing super tight, my aim is to make the cash. I check the payouts and chuckle when I see the top 259 players will cash, but it’s just a 11c tournament ticket....... However, I grind my chips up, admittedly with AA three times in about 15 hands but most players have the 3500 starting stacks and know I’m playing tight, so I get respect even t...
