Time to take a look back to my 2016 solidarity challenge. In the beginning of 2016, I started a challenge with a 500€ bankroll aiming to step up the limits on Winamax. I initially intended to play during 6 months (January > July) accumulating hands in PLO cash games and testing my skills a.k.a. 'luck' in MTT games. During spring, I decided to leave to travel the U.S. during a bit more than two months from late May to early July, so I elected to add August and September to the schedule in order to complete the 6-month challenge period. In total, a sample of 309 tournaments (mainly 5-20€ MTTs) came together along with 27.807 cash game hands mainly at PLO.05/.1 and PLO.1/.2 tables. I started with 500€ on 1st January and made it up to 1.060.49€ thanks to a couple of great MTT results and being only almost even in cash games. Cash game profit: 30.55€ Tournament profit: 529.94€ Unfortunately, I am not able to provide detailed info and graphs for the total period as my computer containing my PokerTracker database got stolen in Las Vegas this summer :/ I still have my Sharkscope graph to illustrate the MTT run. My initial idea was to give away 20% of my bankroll at the end of the challenge and, should I go broke or finish below the 500€ mark, I would still donate 20% of the starting bankroll. Having no home and travelling around in different countries almost non-stop, it is not always easy to find the time, the suiting legal local setup and the energy to put in a lot of volume for the grind but at the end of September, my bankroll had reached 1.060.49€, so the total amount donated will be 212,098€. A pretty satisfying result in my opinion. I will contact the Apemh management shortly to discuss how we can invest this money wisely ... I will keep you posted soon! |
