Update 1/24

".....Early to finish, I was late to start....."

took a hardline BBV stance and plunked down my buy ins today in the $3 and $10 rebuy $20K and 55K guaranteed respectively

Bankroll $90.33

just cashed in $3 rebuy (currently just below avg chips @ 35K) 400 some players left, just doubled through on a flopped flush in the $10r 55K 27K

"Rebuy Ron" @ Pokerstars, updated progress @ blog link in profile, wish me luck I want to do this TONIGHT [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]


PS can anyone reccomend a HH converter that is importable to blogs like myspace.com?

[kemystery]

yeehaw! just completed my own $5 to a $1000 challenge (stars server shutdown - meant I didn't get paid from a tournament before the week long deadling @ 4am, but I wasn't sticking too closely to any parameters, tahnks Mortal Limit - I have learned quite a bit this week-

Anyhow, I'm so excited I thought I'd offer to stake 5 busto players $5 bucks each to see if they could replicate or even improve upon Mortal's (or myself) finish, while keeping us all entertained with their exploits - maybe they could start a blog or another thread here.

If a poster or mod has an idea about how to pick/award the 5 2+2ers to participate in this I'm all ears - if this even sounds interesting

anyways will check in later on this thread to see what happens

[kemystery]

no one wants to get staked for this? thought there might be more interest

[kemystery]

OK - 1st player staked; 'rageotones' $5 sent

[Nate.]

Kem, Rageotones --

Good luck. I'll be watching.

--The Original

[kemystery]

you are the OG nate - no one will ever take that from you

[Grasshopp3r]

Nate, you need to change your title to something more worthy. I would suggest "$5 --&gt; $1k" or "$5 to Robusto"

I enjoyed reading about your progress.

2nd 2+2er staked 'stakman1011'

wish him luck - 3 more spots available

[stakman1011]

I've been a lurker here for many moons and followed this thread since the beginning

Kemystery's generous offer is greatly appreciated by yours truly.

I have a question though,

I plan on (in true BBV style) being completely and totally wasted starting thursday.

If it's ok with everyone I'm gonna start this tonight play two days, and then not touch my account at all over the weekend.

I'll daily post my results/progress and I'll post when the challenge is on and off.

I WILL finish this in 7 days...it just might not be seven consecutive days.

If anyone has an issue with this in terms of it being cheating...maybe i'll finish it in 6 and a half days.

Thanks so much Kemystery!

BTW...starting now at 11:45 on Tuesday night...
