Default Re: 15BB challenge??

[ QUOTE ]
What happens in these challenges when you make it to the next level, but then drop to 15BB for the previous level? Keep going at the level you've made it to, or drop down?

This was originally called the OIC (Open Internet Challenge), I think. Basically, the rules are:

* Full-ring games only
* You've got a 3-hour time limit to make it as far as you can
* You stay within one site
* No multi-tabling unless you're running more than one 15bb at a time
* You play until you make 15bb for the next level
* Don't take profits (e.g. if you have $27 playing .50/1 and you profit $13 from your last hand you start at 1/2 with $40 not $30)
* Leave on the hand you hit the next level on...don't wait for the blinds to hit you
* Keep going until your time is up or you bust out of the limit you start on (e.g. if you're on Stars and you start at .25/.50, don't drop down to .10/.20 if you get down to $3...just keep going at .25/.50 until you're out)

All these, of course, are up to the discretion of the player (if you're just doing it for yourself) or the person that posts the challenge (do a search for "15BB" and my username in the past 6 months...you'll see a few threads).
