The Pyramid Bankroll Challenge: Is it time to move up?

[train.]

I'm in. I suck at all the other challenges and this one too probably. starting now. my normal limit is 1/2 but i'm gonna start at .5/1.

I was tryin to figure out the same thing...what limit to start at. My limit is 1/2. I figure if I start at .5/1 thats 40bb of my 1/2 roll. If I start any lower then .5/1 that only puts me 2/4 when I finish the challenge. I think it would be fun to finish the challenge at least 2 levels above my current level.

If I didn't know any better I would say challenges are curses...6 hours in 400 hands and down 36 bb. JJ I for 8. AA 0 for 2 AK 1 for 5....grrr.....

Hi guys,

what the heck is a 15bb challenge?

[KingOtter]

I'm starting at 1/2 and am down 6BB atm (and it was a lot farther)... in 232 hands, heh. Shows what a fluke the other challenge was for me.

Btw, I consider this 'challenge' to be a much longer term 'challenge' than the others. This one may take weeks to complete whereas the 15BB challenge is supposed to be over and done rather quick, IMO.

take 15 BB at whatever limit you like. Play till you have 15 BB for the next limit up. Repeat as high as you can go for 3 hours.

Some don't put a time restriction on it. Some move down if the get down to 15BB for the next level down. But that's the just of it.

[Smurph64]

15bb challenge is a 3 hour test. Pick a microlevel to start and br 15 bb ...no topping no multi tables just one table. When you get 15bb for the next level move up.

Try not to bust out before the 3 hours are up or go crazy and get as high as you can.

Two different strategies both styles get interesting results.

Well in the interest of full disclosure on my success.....




Guess where I started the challenge on the chart....

At least I didn't tilt....though I wanted to lol

My 1/2 isn't going well... dropped back down to .50/1.00 for now so I don't have to reload, heh.
