Most poker players know the challenge Chris "Jesus" Ferguson put up for himself in 2007. For those who don't, you can read everything about in on http://www.fulltiltpoker.com/da/chris-ferguson-challenge. Now, what I'm about to do is nearly the same, except for the numbers. I'm not going to play a BIG FAT 0 in to 10K. My challenge is going to be a bit easier. I will give you a couple of reason why I'm not making the exact challenge as Ferguson did.
- Ferguson is a pro, I'm not.
- In order to achieve a goal, it need to be realistic.
- There is no third reason.
My goal is going to be from 5€ to 5000€. I will have no time limit do this. This challenge may take 14 days, (I highly doubt it) or it may take a year. I will of course as Chris Ferguson did, have some sort of rules to follow in order to achieve this goal.
The rules are as followed:
- I am not allowed to play short stack strategy: I must buy in with maximum buy in.
- I will never buy into a cash game or a Sit & Go for more than 5 percent of my total bankroll; the only exception is at the lowest limits: I'm allowed to buy into any game with a buy-in of $2.50 or less.
- I'm not allowed to buy into any multi-table tournaments for more than 2 percent of my total bankroll; the only is was $1 MTTs
- If at any point my stack reaches more than 50 % of my buy in, I must leave the table.
- If at any point my stack reaches below 25 % of my buy in, I must either reload or leave the table.
With this set of guidelines I will try to reach 5K.
I hope you will follow my journey through the limits, cheer for me when I'm doing good and support me when I'm not.
