Busto/Robusto Challenges
I've tried a couple of these lately because when I get home from work I'm just too tired to grind 3 tables. So three times now I've decided it would be fun to busto/robusto from $50.
I don't really set a goal each time, though I should. My first try I sat at a $100 table and got about 2/3 of my stack in preflop HU and lost. The second time I got up to about $450 before losing with top set to an open-ended straight draw with two backdoor flush draws (on a 3/6 table, I was considering moving up to 5/10 with $400 but the table was playing very loose and I thought I could easily get in with a good edge, which I did). The third time I got up to about $310 before losing with top-two + OESD +lower FD against an over-pair plus a flush draw. None of these challenges last much more than an hour. Anyone tried this? Any thoughts on this? I have read about NLHE busto/robusto challenges that last a long time but dno't really have better results than myself. How many all-ins should one really expect to win before going busto? What do you all think would be a good stopping point to start over and try again? I just realized this basically an advertisement to shortstack, but oh well. |

I think it would be much more interesting to sit down with six 2+2'ers at a table and play until someone had all the monies.
I wonder how long this would last. |

[/ QUOTE ] Heh, given the responses to the HU challenge I think we could fill a .5/1 or 1/2 table (full tilt) pretty easily and test it out. I think I could be available Saturday. Way to hijack my thread. |
