Such a mixed feeling about the series. Loved it to start. But the time limit ruined it for me. All I remember hearing was " I'm staying until I hit 5K" then episode 20, "Ope I'm done at 500 hours". I figured it would be 3/4/5 weeks. Micros are minefields. Tons of setbacks after shot taking. I do appreciate the content, hope to see more original stuff like this in the future.

Same thing here. Was excited so much every time I checked the stream or highlight video poped up here but now knowing the time frame of 500 hours whole thing is kinda disappointing..

@@user-jg2um9nf2vI don't think they knew it was 500 hours the entire time. I think that was a lie they made up.

Yea honestly, you were on your way. I'm gonna be honest here: I loved watching this, like: this dude is committing himself. Stopping after 500 hours and only announcing this at the 500 hour mark made me realise it was just a content stunt, nothing more. Disappointing.

"I´ll never quit this challenge no matter what!!" 3 hours later: "Oh, we reached 500 hours, See ya!!!"

What a wet fart of a challenge, were things like rent or food ever considered in the bankroll/budget? this was just "im gonna play some microstakes until i get bored of it". Long time fan but this felt almost condescending.

Yah, there was never any "challenge", just fancy marketing to dress it up b/c "I'm gonna play micros for 2 weeks" doesn't sound interesting.

Watch xuan to see a challenge like that, she's trying to get across Canada with 2k using only poker budgeting flights and food into her bankroll

I'm really disappointed in the outcome of the series. If you truly had this implied time limit from the start, your game selection was absolutely terrible. If anyone wants to see a real 0-5k online bankroll challenge comment and like this post , I'll start a series. I reckon it takes me a month but we can find out together

Don't like how you had it capped and didn't tell anyone...feels a little misleading because it's obvious this would take some time without a sunday score. Different kinds of challenges are popular now for content people and quiting is heavily ridiculed. You could have easily completed it and the longer it went on i think it would have got more traction media wise. I know you invested heavily with your team, but i think that was excessive and unnecessary. GG tho

500 hour Slow roll … Well done !!!

Wasn't a fan of this series since beginning, for me it was an obvious attempt to match the popularity of Corey Eyring's series (It's not a coincident that kevin started his bankroll challenge at the same time while Corey was having highest views on poker YT), but it lacked the soul, emotions and style that corey's series had. His videos didn't only get popular because he was risking his entire networth/bankroll, I would say his increadible story telling skills and the fact that It didn't even feel like a poker vlog is what made it special. It was more of a documentary of somebodys life that just happened to have poker in it and some of the best episodes of the series didn't even have poker in it, it was a needed breath of fresh air in this quite oversaturated industry of poker vlogs. This, on the other hand, was just a lame imitation trying to get views from a popular trend that had to be finished since it didn't get the views it was expeceted to get.

Damn you pull out quick, guess that’s why Pili left

It is crazy to me you set a 5000 $ goal . Leave after only 20 days. Talked about how you have prepared for this challenge. You didn’t even make it 30 days before you quit.. should have stated the time limit from the start. I am disappointed. Always respected you. Respect the challenge. Don’t respect the way you ended it. You quit . Only after 20 days.. you could have did it in 2 months easy with the right bankroll management. If that was your true goal. Mixed feelings about this!!!

I've been your fan for a long time, but when I see someone who considers himself a professional poker player, after 500 hours, he can't make $5000, and worse, he accepts defeat. I'm really sorry for the time I wasted following this challenge.

this challenge proves how difficult online poker is at the moment.15 years ago before black friday happened, with poker skills Kevin has, he could print money nonstop, that time is long gone and never come back

Feel like you had a lot of momentum with this challenge and your channel. Seems shocking to add a 500 hour rule to stop that. But I get that this is probably really draining and not fun. However plenty of the bigger KZread’s got big from going hard not going home.

All right, this explains why you were taking such insane variance.

Loved every bit of it❤ It was quit tough but you still did it🥳🎉

Big fan! Respect the grind 🙌

Could have saved yourself 15 days by just working at the farm if you were going to quit early

Sad to see the challenge ending

I really enjoyed this, wish it went till the challenge completed

Go go go champ

Battle back from zerooo

Being up any amount after playing that many hours at those stakes with such a small starting roll is impressive

Love the heart!

You are the man, Kev! 💪💪💪 Go go go!

this sucked from the very beginning. I knew you would not finish this, there was no chance unless you'd hit some big score within first week, you know, playing the 50$ "micros" from the deposits you could afford after selling stuff. What an inspiration, poker from zero lol

brotato it's time to upgrade those hideous headphones lmao, those are so 2012

Been al hell of a run been following since day 2 can’t wait for the next challenge

Feels like time wasted, watching over 40 hours on live and all the 20 episodes for it to just end when you dont feel like doing it anymore. What a shame..

I did enjoy this series but I do think if there was going to be a time limit (which is _obviously_ reasonable. You shouldve said so in the start). Not hating, just some positive feedback.

well he had to go to Ontario to play in one of the softest fenced in areas. I can only imagine how much it's actually costing paying for rent, food, and travel for his entire team.....lol could have easily had GG made him a new account, stay in Cowtown and actually grinded it on global, sad really

Damn that's kinda lame

Not nice. Seems a lot like a publicity stunt instead of a challenge.

It was a really fun challenge to follow regardless, congrats on the 100k as well.

that was defo a tilted shove with k2 even if it did win you your first tournement

I bet that you will reach 5k less than in a 35 days. I like your project and I wish you very GOOD LUCK OF POKER GODS !!! You can do this because you have an army of us behand you 👍
