I've finally started to see some light in this.
Up to 290 from the 100 in this thing. Went on a good run the last two days, winning my last 4-5 33s, then 3 55s and then I lost a 110 against a pretty big fish, more on that in a sec. I just won my last two 55s, one of which I got a little lucky on when I made a bad move.
As for the 110, I got the perfect fish for me to play in my first match at this level. I don't think I would have a bigger advantage against many other players than this one, unfortunately he floated me with one over card in raised pots within 3-4 hands of each other and hit to even the match. Even at this I was pretty ok with because I lost the minimum on the hands. Then he flopped two pair to my top pair queen kicker and we got it in. I felt the play was fine because I was definitely ahead of his range and felt my read on his range was very solid. Overall, disappointing results but I was very happy with my play at this game.
In other news, Crounder is somewhere around 1400 in this challenge. He's on a nice little heater it appears and should be on 550s soon. One thing about his run is he has stayed playing 110s when he should be playing 220s. Hopefully he wins a few 550s in a row because moving down to a level you've never played may cause confidence problems if you run bad at that level. That is why I did not advocate skipping levels in this degen challenge, but rather moving up and down according to a ridiculous bankroll guideline. There are few rules in this thing but I kept them at a minimum so the rules that I have for them I feel are very important. Regardless, best of luck to him and may I see him at the 5500s rather soon.
I'm also starting to move into my new place tomorrow so I probably won't have time for more than 3-5 matches. It's also my buddy's 21st birthday so I'll be busy in the night.
Bankroll $3,382.38 (Note: Bankroll reflects my buddy winning 86 bucks last night in cash on my account in which we split, other than that I have only played games within this challenge since the start)
