My $1000 Challenge - Aug29
Ok, now that i was able to double my BR from my $52 starting money i will start to play those $1.75 18player sng's. it took me a long time to reach this BR since i was not able to play much these last few weeks... my daughter, ameera, was hospitalized and needed to go surgery due to hirschsprungs disease. now im really inspired since i have to really make some money now and pay for those cost. she's my angel and wouldn't let anything happen to her! i will be playing at my best always on the following games... wish me luck!!!

My $1000 Challenge - Aug4
BR = $46.72
I was not able to update the blog on the last 3 days.... bcoz, i took a huge downswing and almost tilted me out!!! I played 10 games on a single name lost all of them! what a bad luck! I think 3 of them i positioned on the bubble. took a hard lesson not to call ALLIN with just a top in your hand... well i do hope that i can still keep it up and reach back to where i started. i thought this is just going to be a walk in the park... but damn! how the hell boku87 manage to make it playing with 50 sng's simultaneously!? he's not human!!! LOL!!
anyway, hope to reach at least $100 by the end of the week... Wish me luck everyone!!!
