I've been playing micro cash games for a while with relative success. I decided to move to the HUHT format because
I've always wanted to learn heads-up, I can put more volume and there are probably more fish.

The challenge will have the following phases.
-Start at the 0.50 "Super Turbo" at Full Tilt and play 200-1000 games to get my "feet wet"
-Start mixing in some 1.00 at FT
-"Move Up" to 1.50 at PS after I have the basics down, and I have a winrate of at least 0% over 500 games
-"Move Up" to 3.50 when my bankroll hits $200. Move down at $100

During the challenge I will implement the following
-Read 2 books per month. Aiming at one per week
-Watch free videos from husng
-One table until I get to the 3.50
-Update this thread at least weekly

Hello MCXXIV

Welcome on the PokerStrategy forum :welcome:

Nice challenge you’re starting. What kind of Bankroll management (BRM) are you planning to do, because the swings in those hyper HU’s are huge so far that I know.

It looks like your still a basic member and than you can use 1 or more of our free money offers on poker rooms you don’t have a account yet. If you're a bronze member you can post pictures as well.

Further I wish you all the best to beat the Hyper HU SNG’s

Cheers,
SDK1987

First week went well. I played 400 0.50 and 1 games at a ROI of 9%. I'll be moving to 1.50 on PS, play at least 1000 games and build my bankroll to move to the 3.50. I'll move up when I have 200 and move down if I lose 25 Buy-Ins.
I'm halfway through Mersenneary book, my goal is to finish it this week.
