Level-Up Challenge: From 2NL to 25NL in 7 Weeks
Hi, I'm il Capitano. I'm from Argentina and I'm a poker player.
On March 2nd (tomorrow) I start the Level-Up Challenge. The goal is to reach 25NL in 7 Weeks. I start in 2NL.
Wish me luck!

Whats the plan on doing it in 7 weeks? GL
Play a lot. I spent the last month really studying so I should have a decent understanding for micros.
First step is to win 15 buy-ins and move up to 5NL. I'll start with 5 hours of play a day.
1st day is in the books. Played 4 hours and a half.

Things were going great until this punt:

Sucks to start the challenge on a break even day. I faced a ton of difficult spots in 3bet pots. See you tomorrow.
