Doug Polk 100k challenge

code doug

Ty.

"Got off to a brutal start for Day 2 of the Code Doug challenge. Was stuck around $6-$7K before getting even, but gave some of it back at the end"

Today’s Result: -$2,640
Overall Result: +$1,230

He is now guaranteeing at least $50,000 regardless of his results. I think hes definitely starting to realize this goal is no where near achievable.

Thought he said yesterday he was up 10k. Maybe misheard as I only had it on as background noise

I don't think the win rate that he is proposing 20BB/100 hands is possible in today's poker environment. Not unless he is sitting with absolute maniacs or he has plants that are purposely losing to him.

And with only 1 table ...... even if he does 100,000 hands (kind of difficult to do on 1 table, although being headsup helps him). He would win $120K at 3/6 NL But if it drops to 10BB/100 (more realistic but still ambitious) - then he is at $60K.

Doug Polk vs almost anyone in the world would yield him much more than 10BB/100 in deep stacked HU.

Currently yielding him -$10k today playing 200BB HU.

Yep getting smashed today, checked in randomly and he's just getting picked to pieces. -9k today and -7.7k overall so far.

The 100k is no longer possible imo. He's already committed to giving 50k minimum away so really the challenge now is to try and get as close to that as possible. I think he can do it!

I called a fail, It is not 2006 on party poker anymore the odds were stacked. Well played all involved and I hope all the players who deposited will make some +EV back.
50k may be attainable but I am still not confident. Maybe a few "Whales" show up and boom the job is done and all parties involved are happy.

is there a real time $ tracker or something similar?

Link please

Why isn't he playing 6 max? Seems to me that the fields would be softer than HU.

It's a heads-up challenge

And if we subtract the $300 Dougs already spent on alcohol and food deliveries too. Oh boy.

Who knows how much he will spend on wifebeaters

he says no such thing in the video.

I am guessing that he's thinking he can get more hands in by playing HU though Either way, I 'd prefer it he played 6 max or 8 max.

They don't have 6 max. Its 8 max or HU and Doug probably hasn't played full ring since 2010

Doug needs to stop sitting birdman lmao this is just brutal at this point.

I watched for 5 minutes and couldn’t handle more. Wtf is he screaming, dude is pushing 40s and sounds like a low IQ 14yo.

Also isn’t he sponsored by that site and he’s just talking about how shitty the software is. Lol I hope he would’ve been this honest about Coinflex.

But he wasn't.

I'm enjoying the content

stop crying you little bitches

Maybe he can get DNegs to play him again.

the software is awful

very difficult to alter bet sizes and you can't customize any of the preflop buttons or raise sizes

would be difficult to not verbalise this when streaming live.
especially as theres no timebanks so the shitty software forces you to time out or misclick a bunch

Yeah that client looks like sheeeet. it seems to lag a ton or the animations are super buggy. Can't imagine playing there while losing would tilt the living crap out of me.

It looks like a variation of 888's software...can't people design poker UIs anymore? All the sites except Stars and GG have shite interfaces, in the old days even smaller sites like Paradise had decent interfaces. Party should go back to their old one too.

what? he plays full ring all of the time.

Huge rrespect for Doug, but this may be a bit ambitous IMO (I know nobody asked). 7 years ago I agree, but today I think that win rate would be cut down a bit.
