The Poker Bankroll Challenge: The Next 2,500 Hands and Some Hand Details – $197.80


Unfortunately, my database history was wiped clean somehow, so I had to start a new graph. I ran really hot this session, especially where I won about 70 big bets in only 100 hands (between hands 600-700). It’s important to understand, though, that high variance can sway in either direction. Good runs are always welcome ego boosters, but they are never sustainable – keep that in mind when the pendulum swings the other way.

And now for some hands:
