330k? I thought it was 300k Triple, 350 others

I think it's entirely possible that 300k is from Antonius, but he played other games as well and finished up another 30.

So durrr just won 2M million in the last week.

Isildur and durrr are both at +1.5M for the year. I predict nuclear war.

Apparently this was not part of the challenge.

The "real" challenge started just now. They are playing 2 tables of 200/400 NLHE

Rui Cao: so
FinddaGrind: we will play nl holdem 300 600 blinds untill one of us is up more than 350k and we will play minimum 100 bb deep right?
Rui Cao: 200 400
FinddaGrind: same for PLO?
Rui Cao: 200 400 no?
Rui Cao: I said no for 300 600 not enough BIs
Rui Cao: 200 400 is better and it wont last too long if we 2 tables
FinddaGrind: we can start with 200 400 but if it looks like it will go too slow then we need to kick it up to 300 600
FinddaGrind: i will have one week to finnish this challenge
Rui Cao: ill be here to play everyday
Rui Cao: if we put enough hours its gonna be enough time
FinddaGrind: i just dont wanna play one day for 3-4 days possibly since the 8 game is running every day
Rui Cao: I don't want it to be flipping
Rui Cao: 300 600 with 350K us is just almost nothing
Rui Cao: even 200 400 is going to be fast
Rui Cao: i mean 8.5 BIs
Rui Cao: you swing that easily in a couple thousand hands
FinddaGrind: ok we will start with 200 400 i hope that will go fast
Rui Cao: ok
Rui Cao: if it last too long
Rui Cao: we will change
FinddaGrind: but what will we do if we are still playin the first game after 3 days?????
Rui Cao: kick it up
FinddaGrind: ok deal
Rui Cao: plo and deuce
Rui Cao: is going to be much faster
FinddaGrind: 2-7 we will play one table 1500 - 3k limit
Rui Cao: oh and if I get disconnected or you do
Rui Cao: lets wait a bit
FinddaGrind: untill someone is up more than 300k
Rui Cao: my connection here is bad
Rui Cao: yes and 300K bonus if no scoop
Rui Cao: for the winner
Rui Cao: ok
FinddaGrind: yes gentlemen rules if someone gets disconnected you need to wait as long as you can to bet ok?
Rui Cao: 2 tables NL and PLO 1 table of deuce
Rui Cao: ok
FinddaGrind: also i want to confirm the added money
Rui Cao: yes
FinddaGrind: if you scoop you will naturally win 1m
Rui Cao: 300K bonus to the winner if no scoop
FinddaGrind: yes if you win with 2-1 result then loser will transfer 300k for the winner
Rui Cao: yes
FinddaGrind: ok i will see you in nl table
FinddaGrind: i will need max 5min

Antonius C/R flop, bet turn and shoves river. Cao folds river.
antonius up ~40k with medium pots without any showdown

Antonius fires all streets and cao calls down.

Next hand:

Antonius 3bet to 2.8k, cao 4bets to 6.4k, antonius 5bet to 14.4k, cao shoves 40k:

Cao 3bet PF, leads flop and turn and check/fold river to antonius 22k bet

Antonius 3 barrels and fold to Cao C/R (antonius bet 8k and folded to 24k raise river)

Cao 4bet to 6k PF. bet flop and bet 11k turn and antonius folded

Antonius fires all streets and cao calls down

Antonius seems to win most of the small/medium pots with no showdown. Up ~30k so far

Cao 3 barrels bluff and Antonius calls down

Cao 3bet PF to 2.8k and bet 3.2k flop and bet 7k into 12k pot on turn. Antonius raises allin turn.

After not even an hour play of NLHE

They are now starting 1 table of 2-7 at 1.5k/3k limits

I won't post 2-7 hands tough because quite annoying to post

cao down about 100k so far in 2-7

Cao recovered and down only 50k. Antonius is in for his original 100k stack only.

They ended their 2-7 with Cao a ~40k winner
