Degen Challenge Update

Been running like shit in these 33s. I went 5-3 last night to take me up to 8-7, up for the first time in this thing.

These are the final 2 hands of the first two matches I've played today. Hand 1 is kind of "meh," I should've raised a little more probably. Hand 2 is just gross.

Anyways, 8-9 now, feels like I've moved down and will never move back up. In hindsight it would've been nicer to start with 200 and just play the 55s I had been playing.
