BBV Min-Buy Challenge 9/9/06

[Corey]

So, inspiried by the "turn x into 4k" thread, I'm doing the min buy challenge.

I'm currently at .5/1 NL. I never play no limit, so you should see some pretty donkey play. I'm camtasia'ing this so I'll capture anything good. I started at .01/.02 with $1 so this is a low-risk situation (I actually busted at .01/.02 my first time in like 4 hands)

I'll post the table (on PokerStars) in a second in an edit

table feronia. just doubled to 30

sn is gambling easy (seat 3 at feronia .5/1)

i am gona try this too. starting with 5 on party

Moving up to 1/2 with 40.5. Recording one table is so boring. I'm already drinking...a lot. This is not as cool as I thought it would be (maybe if I make it to 10/20, I'll start to feel differently).

Table Rafita: seat 9

[/ QUOTE ]

standard short-stack, at least what I think NL short stack play should be. I've played about 50 hands of no limit--excluding tournaments--in the last two years, so I'm not the person to ask for optimal play.

Because BBV likes graphs in M0NIEZ::
