    I am going to try to turn 100 into 10k doing what boku did. For the first time ever I am going to try 40 tableing today and see what happens. I will keep this thread updated with details and good luck me.

    I started this yesturday and grinded 42 to 112. Today I didnt run as good and Put the same amount of volume as yesturday but I only made 20 today compared to 70 yesturday.

    the only thing different I am doing then boku is I am not trying to do this in 15 days and I will be playing micro mtts here and there.

    day 1- 42 to 112

    day 2- 112 to 116

    day 3- 116 to 158

    day 4- 158 to 157

    day 5- 157 to 174

    day 6- Did not play

    day 7- 174-275 (deposited 130)(lost about 75 playing 25/50cent cash. cashed in 55 dollar mtt for 91 (JJ<AQ 35k pot), and made 10 dollars in a 20 game session) Tommorow its back to the grind and f**k shots. I will hit 10k in my account in 2 - 3 months max and this ia a goal I will achieve!

    I will be playing 33dollar scoop mixed holdem event and 33 dollar NlH mtt scoop event. These will not be shots because I am getting in them for free with tickets. I am getting to 10k soon all you haters can doubt me but its happening mofos.

    day 8- 275 to 311(every day I own. I dont have loseing days often)

    Realistically it is simple if you can keep up with the tables. Then it's just about running at expectation.

    How about instead of 40 tabling, you play a smaller amount and improve your game and move up in stakes. You are not going to be able to do what Boku did, but that doesn't mean that you can't turn 100 into 10,000 if you actually work at improving you game. Quit wasting your time with stupid volume challenges and make yourself a better poker player.

    GENIUS!!!
    Boku wins a prop bet in the middle of March that inspires a million copycats. He then waits a week or 2, Goes back, and plays his regular grind of 35-40-tables at a time...only now his tables are full of copycats who are 50 tabling...and he'll clean up. AGAIN.

    Very clever sir,gg.

    I think I can do this. Yesturday I grinded these for 6 hours and turned 42 into 112 now after 6 hours of grinding today I am at 132, going to relax now and play a couple big mtts to end the day. The 2.75 and the 3.30 horse.

    Your posts are very conflicting/confusing. From reading previous posts of yours, I suspect you should forget any challenges and concentrate on learning the game.

    o rly

    At first I figured he had to mean big field events, but those small buy in horse tournies (or any horse tournies for that matter) do not get that many runners do they? Either way this thread is preposterous.

    based on your previous posts... maybe you werent playing enough of the seats at the blackjack

    i think you should create a new and different challenge to rival boku by 50 seating blackjack... should be wayy easier than 50 tabling, but more +ev...

    sngs if you are 50 tabling youre playing against 400 opponents, blackjack only 50 dealers. thats 350 less opponents, basically octupling your equity... i mean youre heads up on the final hand at every seat

    just a thought good luck timmy
