50 SNG Challenge
I am going to be embarking on a journey of sorts, a quest if you will. Doing what you ask? Well, not so long ago, in a land really not that far away, I realized that I was doing pretty well overall in the $38 6 person sng's that I was playing. I decided I want to see just how well, or at least find out whether or not it was all an illusion.
I am going to play 50 of them, hopefully not run out of money in the process, and track my results. I'll keep it updated on here every 10 games or so, even though no one cares  ...at least for my own amusement.
Good luck me!

UPDATE
I just finished my 10th one, and this is how it's looking so far:
10 played, 4 out of money finishes. Of those 6 cashes, I won 3, lost 2, and chopped 1. Currently showing a net of +$282.50.
It's looking decent to me, and I've been happy with my play overall. The one thing I'm trying to do is multitable 4 at a time and multitabling has always been my weakness. I lose focus and tend to get in "allin or nothing" modes...it's very weird. So far I've been doing alright with it, the only problems arising when I get heads up with 2 or more at once. There I end up losing focus and end up donking in one, and finishing the other well. We'll see how it progresses.
Thanks for the support, it's much appreciated!

Tryin an Expirement here. We keep seeing these personal challenges put up, but then we don't hear anything. I'm gonna sticky this (relax kid, it won't be here long) to make sure you keep at it. Sorry for being the guinea Pig.

UPDATE
O...M...G......... I had the sickest session ever... i played 4 at once and managed to cash in......NONE. i wasn't playing the best poker i can play, but regardless, i got hit with a cold wave of cards i haven't seen in a long time. I wasn't getting sucked out TOO much, but i kept running into hands that were bigger than mine, KK to AA, set vs set, 2 pair vs higher 2 pair. I couldnt hit a draw to save my life, ugh...it was yesterday and i havent reported this because im still sick to my stomach about it... still up overall, but a very bad taste in my mouth right now...
net is currently +$124, with 14 played, 6 cashes, and 3 wins...
hopefully the next session will have things looking upwards
