Ok so this month was not perfect for me due to being in Vegas, moving house and just getting back into the swing of things.

I am now wanting to grind the hardest i ever have! I think the time has come and i want you guys to bet against me or play against me. I would actually prefer to play vs me as this should be motivating for all.

So i am wanting to play 150k hands in August. If you want to be on beating me we can do that, if you want to just bet vs me we can also do that. Just throw an offer at me and we can sort it out.

Whilst playing i still have to do 80+ hours of work per month for VIP, be a taxi driver (4 trips per day for family minimum), go to the gym 10 times per week and also squeeze in having a life (turn 27 in august). So you could have an edge here.

The games i am playing will all be 6 max nlh and a mix of a fast fold variant, BetVictor regular games and a secret site :). The secret site will be regular games and let me tell you getting more than 4 tables is insanely hard to do.

A thing you may be wondering about is if its 150k hands + profit. The answer can be yes but i would prefer it to be no. I can deffs lose in august over this amount of hands and dont want to be tied down to having to win. I just want to grind, play my best and advance my game. But im easy for whatever

I will make videos about this and document my progress in here. I will also update my journey throughout.

So who wants what and what can i do to help me grind and also help you grind? Maybe we just make August the month we all get shit done and smile at the end of it?

Hmm, I have to say I am tempted to come at you. Rarely can the degen in me refuse a prop bet challenge, will need to think carefully about if i will have enough time for this.

Couple of questions

How much you looking to bet?
Odds?

That 150k hands looks so tempting..

Cant say at this time wheter or not I will play against you, but will surely let you know. And even if not I wish you good luck on the tables buddy! I am sure you can do it with profit as well

Thanks bro! You should deffs come along with me

Sighh, didnt want to have a chance in lockdown anyway! GLGL with this

Would be interesting if you challenge yourself to win the Winamax rake race top prize reward tbh ^^. But the downside to that will be losing on the rakeback, which will not be very profitable in general.

cool man, will follow ...but I'm not interested in betting against you or playing
you should also write what's your average hands/month in the last 6 months or so if you want to get some action
and then you should lay some odds (based on that)

I don't grind on Winamax sadly

Hey It looks something like this

July: 88k hands
June: 0k hands
May: < 25k hands
5 months prev all under 40k hands.

holy crap, this will be awesome.

I will bet that you don't play 150k and that your win-rate must be higher than -2bb/100. I have no idea what fair odds for that would be.

What odds would you do for just not being able to play 150k hands in 1 month? evens?

Yeh id take evens on that. Just a straight up volume prop: Must play 150k hands or lose. What amount?

Just being a gentleman lol

I would want to motivate myself to turn a profit as well rather than just the volume (although motivation for volume would be good for me right now). With that in mind i'll do 2.25:1 in my favour on most hands played in 30 days where I need to show a profit and you do not. I'm open to some other variation of this idea if you have any other thoughts. Win rate bets might be a little bit sketchy since still only ~150K hands but id consider it.

We would have to decide on a minimum stake so we cant just go play 2nl/5nl 8 tabling zoom for volume and fold every hand and so graphs would have to show filters if ur documenting it with a journey. I dont really mind what the limits we can play as long as its reasonable.

I'm somewhat flexible on amount, for the purpose of this bet it really just has to be enough to motivate, but i dont know how much action your taking on. So maybe like $500? I dont really mind how much we bet tbh, just looking for some motivation to smash some volume.

Let me know mate.

Hmmm id rather keep is as just volume. I am playing 50-200nl over 3 sites. 1 of those sites is a fast fold variant and will make up for like 50% of my overall grind.

Good luck Jon, i am going for 100k hands of PLO this month, no fast fold, four cards, and a lot of flops. That is probably like a million NLHE hands

Maybe I will take a few moments tonight and start a journey thread later on.

Thanks bro! Yeh make one and complete it

Ok so the first day is in the books. Considering i did bits of work, babysat for 4 hours, went to the gym for 2 hours and had time to take a s&*t i am super happy with the overall volume. To get off to a huge start like this deffs motivates me to try and crush even harder.

Tons of work stuff coming up over this weekend including some new cool walk through vids to help members navigate the site easier!

So anyways the moment you have all been waiting for!

So a good sleep then onto the weekend. Apart from work i don't have anything else planned so hopefully i can get 10k+ hands done and really be on the way to hitting my target.

Very nice start Jon! Lets keep on running like that and make big chunk of moniezz!

Wow very nice, go Jono!

9k nice start. Can you add minuets played to the report. Would be nice to see how many hands that you are getting an hour. Also where you mixing networks in order to get so many or play one room as much as possible along with the fast fold table?
