For those just tuning in, I'm just starting off with Hold'em and I've been playing fake money until I get the Brunson and Hansen books.

As an update, I got really bored with just one table, as I was making good progress and found it to be very slow-paced. I decided to go ahead and multi-table, starting with 4. I immediately lost all my money because I was cocky.

After watching High Stakes Poker with my dad for a while, I decided to reset my chip count and come back. 1000 chips, 4 tables, 200 each with 200 extra just in case. As I realized it was more systematic with more tables, I watched my bankroll grow. I just finished 6-tabling, and I've turned that 1000 into 4500 in an hour and a half.

Again, I know it's fake money and it's not an accomplishment, but if you've read my previous blogs this is more of a personal progress thing than anything else.

Unrelated, but fuck iccup in the first week.

I did something similar over night while waiting for my first deposit. Started shortstacking with 200 on 4 tables, added more and more and moved up in stakes. So I was 8 or 10 tabling, cant remember and was up to 2,5mill at the end of the night rungood obv.

I just have to warn you, playing at the play money tables is not just another game, its another galaxy.
