8 more days of this and then it is over, I cannot wait. Slept like 5 hours and now up and ready to grind another 20k+ hand session out. I dont even know when I eat food anymore, I never seem to be hungry and the only thing I eat is like chips/candy or Mcdonalds, I need to get this back on track next month and get some sort of normalcy again. But it keeps me super motivated seeing all the positive comments on here and on 2+2 from other people, hopefully I really can influence some others out there to grind some more and make more money for themselves also!!
Some people asked me on here and 2+2 like what was my poker story and basically I started playing online in June at 25nl 9 tabling. I played live poker before that so didnt have a job at the time and was making just playing 25nl and learning the game. At the end of june I started 24 tabling one day when I found out you could play that many and grinded 25nl till like August when I built up my 100 deposit to like 2k before after a bunch of cashouts to pay for things and i took a 50nl shot. I had my ups and downs along the way but always beat 25nl for a really good winrate along the way. I played being a 50nl reg at the beginning of September and into October with a few 100nl shots in the mix throughout all this but never could get my online roll past like 3.2k.
Finally in October I put in a 17k hand session at nl100 one day and made like 1.1k and that boosted my roll to like 5k. At the end of September I got a stake to play 100nl/200nl so did that and made me and my staker 2k before we decided to do this prop bet in the forums, which I wasnt even going to do until the last second I changed my mind and probably my life and decided to. I remember playing 25nl like 3 months ago wondering if poker was for me and if you could actually make this money that you see other people making in the forums and was dreaming that one day I could have more then 5k to my name. Now here I am with 17k on stars, clearing another 4k bonus, about to hit a 2k milestone, and will win about 8.3k in the prop bet and it is a very surreal feeling.
Someone asked what I will make in fpps/prop bet this month by itself and I will have 2 $4k fpp bonuses, a $2k and $3k milestone and 2 $1.5k bonuses. From both prop bets if I win them I will get back about 8.3k, I put up about 2k of it thats in escrow so will make like 6.3k from that. Thats about 22k from that I stand to make.
Also I was asked what my goals are for next month and really am not sure as to pertaining to poker, I am moving into a new place at the beginning of the month so I can get out of this room I have been in lol but I've never had more like 2k on me ever in my life so I defintly am going to go on a shopping spree and buy myself alot of nice things. Probably going to get a car also as I havent had one for the last 2 years living in the city in Chicago. I'll probably grind nl100 next month and make a few thousand from that and clear a 4k milestone along the way.
Basically just take it easy as I prepare to go for Supernova Elite starting in January. I am setting my goal to become the first player on Pokerstars to achieve this next year but there are some high stakes sickos who play a ton so it will be a tough challenge, but one I think i can accomplish. How sick would it be to be the first person to achieve this of everyone that plays on stars.
If anyone has any questions or anything they want to know just ask in the comments and i will answer them.
Here is my day yesterday though, i was down like 1.8k at one point but managed to only end the 24k hand session down 1.1k lol go me. Just running super bad and almost chased losses but finally had to stop and pass out. I really wanted to keep playing but couldnt keep my eyes open anymore.
At the month I am at 442k hands, 2k ahead of the pace and feel great about making it now and hopefully will make it a few days early.
As to the hands from the last 2 days I guess these 2 would some up my days well. Its just frustrating grinding for hours and having this happen consistently.
Standard Limp min raise from super fish and the one time they dont have AA or KK

this is really inspiring, now If I can find some way/rationale to somehow quit my job =D. I've been wanting to do this for a very long time, and find it great to vicariously witness the success of someone else making it happen. Congrats! |
