4 days 50 hours poker challenge ITT

[DWarrior]

What better way to spend my last weekend before school? The challenge is 50 hours in 4 days, should be about 40k hands. The play will mostly be .25/.5nl rush poker on Full Tilt, but I may move up if I make a bunch and feel like I'm playing well.

I'll keep the thread updated with intermittent graphs.

Video of first 30 minutes for good luck:

Good luck. I'm doing 4 days 50 hours of jerking off. Using different types of porn from different sites and even DVDs. See you at the finish line!

[LArciniega]

Done. Good luck with yours, I hope you last longer than I did.

[DWarrior]

I have one hand free most of the time, so I might take up a side-challenge.

[DWarrior]

O noes, a setback!



Ran 3 expensive bluffs simultaneously on 3 tables that all failed, and then lost a couple of all-ins as a favorite. Gonna re-watch yesterday's Jersey Shore and then go back on.

I hope you do all this just to break even.

If you want I can take over your losing for you while you watch Jersey Shore. I'm sure I can lose another 50.

It wouldn't be a fun challenge if I just won the whole time.



Some consolation is I made like $20 in a side tournament and another $30 in bonuses, so my hourly is only like -$30/hr.

HM says I played 8 hours, but I think it's closer to like 5. Part of the 8 hours was spent 1-tabling while watching jersey shore and playing a private tourney on the side, so I don't really count that. Also spent 1 hour watching someone else play.

Most of the losses are pretty straight forward, getting it in with AA or KK and losing, or getting hands in vs draws and losing. Probably two most interesting hands of the day:
