I started playing MTT's recently, and set myself an initial goal of reaching the "top 10 of pocket fives/PokerStars TLB within a year" SCOOP is the first big tournament series and I plan to go at it like it is the last one to ever exist. SCOOP is the time that any online MTT grinder forgets everything and shuts themselves in their bedroom and gets on the grind.

I approached some of the best players in the world and said, "hey, wanna bet, I'm a cash game player wanting to bet on SCOOP" they of course obliged.

My motivation is that I want to succeed, I want to improve, I want to get to where I feel I need to be and I need to test myself and ofc its a lot of fun

So my target is to come out of the betting profitable, I hope to cash more than these guys and win more money than these guys.

I will be updating this blog every day that one of the tournaments is on, which is basically every day and letting you know the standings, I'll update the google spreadsheet showing the opponents daily cashes and hopefully you will join me on this short journey!

Will also potentially do some video diaries or something and show a little bit of Hungary off.

If I go deep in any of the tournaments, I will upload camtasia and record the sessions and either post them in the blog for you to watch for free, or create as a proper video for PokerStrategy.com


Who's on my side?

FWIW, I will be adding more people to the OP on an almost daily basis before Sunday, but will make a note in the thread when I do.

In fact I swear you told me about her!

Challenge looks sick btw, vbol, will be railing with interest!

[Ant040689]

Somehow I think you are going to come out smelling of roses despite the line up, best of luck sir!

[theprawnidentity]

Sick line up. GLGL.

Even the tenth best poker player in the world can't win in a game with the top 9.


Best of luck, cannot wait for the 22nd

Wow.

Nothing if not ambitious, Patrick.

Your self-belief amazes me. In horse racing, you know, when a young, improving horse keeps winning, it is often said "we just don't know how good it is until it gets beat".

You've bitten off a lot here, & exposed yourself to possible ridicule. Such confidence!

Hope it goes OK.

Thanks for all the messages guys, hope you all enjoy the sweat!

@tikay, yes I may look stupid in 3 weeks but I can't have a blog called bitb, try and talk the talk and not attempt to walk the walk. There are also lots of other factors such as it will give me a lot of motivation to grind every day and keep going. Me betting 15x a bet is going to be more motivation than the other guys having one bet.

You obviously can't come out if this looking stupid and you are well aware of that!

With less money, yes obv, but from a position as an mtt player clearly your position cannot be percieved badly as a result of these challenges

<3 BITB!

gl mate hope you smash it

[mulhuzz]

betting versus all the geniuses can only go well for you buddy. I think you'd have struggled to pick a tougher lineup than that.

very smart.

Best of luck
