Open Challenge May: Matchups and first report

[Emmitt2222]

Hey guys. Sorry this is a little late in coming, but I starting to get tired of doing this for two reasons

a] I dont see people really getting very much out of this / very few people following through with avatars

b] I'm getting sick of poker because I am so bad at it and have lost more than half my BR

So I dont think I will have the stamina to continue after this month. The only thing that would get me to keep going would be if I really saw people getting a lot out of it or if I could get back into poker through getting coached or something [which I cant afford]. Honestly, I ask if there is any way to improve this challenge constantly, but nobody says much. If you guys could just say anything on how you feel about this going that would be great, even if you just want to say how much you hate me that would be cool. Anyway, onto the matchups:

Krishan vs. Alobar
Snowbank vs. DonButtons
delta-k vs. damaniac
tiltguru vs. poker_n00b
raze vs. lozen + SackUp
DaSpade vs. WordWhiz
KlumsySmurf vs. elindauer x2
cts vs. J-P x2.5
DCWGaming vs. MisterZ + protocol

This was sorta hard, hope I didn't screw it up again. Now get to reportin.

if I could get back into poker through getting coached or something [which I cant afford]

Emmitt, figure out how you can afford it. If you need coaching, it will probably be well worth the cost. Get creative if you have to. I worked out a % of profits with my coach for a month so that he got paid based on how well I played. Your situation might be different because I play a crapload of hands, but figure something out and make sick cash. You can afford it, you just have to figure out how.
