The €0 to €10k challenge. I started this in March 2009 with a zero bankroll and was playing x3 €20 freerolls a week on KSpoker. I Managed to make a few Euro's and then set off playing the 10c rebuy Tournies and the 2/4c tables. Had a good few places and set me on my way. Can be currently found on Opoker under the name PlazaPPP which is On the Boss Network. Names previously used are Plaza! & Plaza!!

Doesnt time fly !!!!!!!
Well its the 1st August today, and although since the last update has been sometime ago to me it doesnt feel that long.
But since the last update, obv the poker has been fits and starts. With no real grinding done. But recently I have tried to play when I can and over the last month or so I am starting to want to get back to it and used today as a benchmark for that.
So since the last update, I have been in hospital for 2 weeks with a view to having a spinal cord modulator implant fitted. Its still early days for that and have to go through a trail in about 2 months time and if the pain reduces by 50% or more during the trail I can then have full implant about Jan next year. Its not a cure, but if full implant is fitted it means I can drop the pain medication to hopefully give me back some sort of life instead of all the nasty side effects I still suffer from on a daily basis. Thats basically it healthwise, so fingers crossed on the implant.....
Back to poker, I find it very hard to sit and play and for more than 90 mins at a time. This obv restricts what I can play, but over the last week I have managed to play a bit on the challenge. But I have also on a couple of occasions played the all in sat's on a Sun to try and increase the b/roll to over the 4k but bad results in that have cost me. Currently the b/roll is €3652.92. I would love dearly to smash that 4k this month, and thats my motivation fingers crossed in hitting that target. I mentioned playing, but I didnt mention the levels, and I have played even has high as €1/€2 with a sit down of €180 to keep within the rules. Ok it was only about 30 hands before the table broke but my style has got a lot more aggressive over the last few months and think nothing of tripple barrelling bluff's at whatever levels I play.
I'm just firing up Poker tracker to give you figures since the last update. There not huge figures due to the above statements.
Ok since April I managed a total of 1791 hands in April with a profit of €100.27.
May was just 239 hands with a loss of 37c.
No play at all in June.
July was my mini comeback, but still just 2457 with a profit of €11.36. I played just 9 days in July though with 5 winning days to 4 loss. Your only talking about a buy in up or down on the €10 tables. But I can only play the tables that have seats open, so cant make higher buy in levels if there not there, but like I said I will play anything up to 1/2.
The badbeat jackpot I told you about with now a mini jackpot was always being won and never say it get any higher than €4k for the mini, but they defo must of done something to RNG because its now a whopping €39.6k. If I hit that of course that the challenge over, which could be a nice incentive to plod on this month.
Only time will tell if I can manage to keep going, and I hope I can grind away a bit more than recent months.
I do have to go away up north to see family from tomorrow which sucks, but 1 day at a time 1 day at a time......
Thanks for reading.
