I've started my own blog just to keep track of this challenge and keep track of my progress day to day. I figured that would be easier than cluttering up this thread with day to day ups and downs. It is linked at the leaderboard blog. If anyone else wants their blog linked, PM me or leave a comment at the leaderboard blog with the address and I will link it. If you are going to start a blog, please read the following; https://www.cardschat.com/forum/suggestions-questions-announcements-6/member-blogs-linked-cc-110673/

Ferguson Challenge Update

ok,this is where I'm at this..
I'm really tring hard to stay within "my" limits.
I've so many times had $50,$40,$20 and $10 added to my account only
to ship it in a matter of hours,even minutes..I was playing stakes that were 25% to 50% even 100% of my bankroll only to see someone suckout with a much weaker hand...I started out by winning $25.50 in tuesdays Cardschat Freeroll. I am really tring to play w/ 12 to 15 buyins. I hope to soon have more buyins behind me..(20) I plan to continue to play the same levels .05/.10 NL ring games on Fulltilt.
along with playing $2+.25 6 player SNG's and $1 & $2+.25 MTT

I am just curious of how to get started on this. I would like to get started with the account I have at Bodog which absolutely has $0 in it. I do have 7 points but that pretty much amounts to nothing. If you can reply back to me and let me know, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Can I be added? I won some money through a CC freeroll on UB and unfortunatley can't trade it so I'm just going to grind it out? I started at 0$ there so I qualify?

I was just wondering something.
Since this is a challenge, Is there something that is going to be given
away to the winner?
or is it just, If ya make it to a $1,000 you should just be happy.

tbh yes the 1K is the prize imo....think about all the experience, knowledge, patience, and discipline you'll gain as well? It's an awesome challenge!

Lost the Bankroll * FRAK! *

Lost the Bankroll - In an effort to really increase the bankroll for the CFCC Challenge, I took it all into a ring game ( stupid I know) Ran the $40.00 up to over $60.00 when I got dealt pocket JJ's. Needless to say JJ's are the hand I hate the most, when the bet got to me it was $2.50 so I called it with the intention of seeing if I could hit a set. Four people in the pot, flop comes 10 J 6 rainbow, first player bets $4.00, second player calls, I only call because the pot came rainbow so right now the only real worry for me is a straight draw. Last player goes all in for $87.00 crap. First two players folded. Now I have to decided if I want to call, I know I flopped the nuts and he got to have a big pair, because if he's going all in on a straight draw, he's an idiot.

So I decide I have to call it, I know at this point I have him beat, and I can't let my history with JJ's rule this decision right now. The cards flip over and he's holding suited A K of clubs. There's only one club on the board, not sure what he was thinking, but for me this looks damn good right now. I have my $60.00 + in there with top set and he's got to pull off a damn bloody miracle to beat me. He has 4 outs to make the straight or he has to get runner runner club to hit the flush. The turn comes 9 diamonds and now he's down to just 4 outs and I'm at 91% to win a nice $130.00 + pot. Then some fat lady shows up, starts to sing as a Q is now floating on the river. The poker qawd's really must hate me, cause it's back to the fraking freerolls again! NOT GOOD AT ALL.....See Odds

 

[KingCurtis]

sickness...but this challenge is incorporated with Ferguson...and the way he played was BRM meaning you should have been playing at the most 10nl...but you can come back gl
