So I decided to go back to what I play best, Heads up NL. I started this goal over the weekend and have roughly 3 months to make 40k starting at 50nl HU. Once I make $500 from 50nl I will move up to 100nl and mix both limits. I plan on moving up before the weekend. The 40k includes RB and any bonuses. Hopefully I can make it before I go back to college. For anyone who wants to rail or check my progress, I am Jediontilt on FTP.

So far I am $100 towards my goal. Have a long way to go. Wish me luck.

I'm confused, are you up 100$ on a 1500$ bankroll or so or do you start with 100$ ?

it seems very unlikely that you achieve that goal, but if you really crush the games and play a lot, then why not

good luck

I think you misunderstood me.

I have more than $1500 in my roll. Im a BR nit and I want to make $500 at 50nl simply for adjusting to HU play and make any mistakes at the 50nl level not higher. I'll move up as I feel I get used to HU play again. I haven't played HU since december and need to readjust.

I've played as high as 400nl HU before and I just bought a car with my poker winnings. 40k is doable.

That's the plan. Second day in and i'm +$420ish. I decided due to iron man bonus I would try and hit iron for the bonus. Since it's kinda hard to hit 200 points playing 50nl HU (lol seriously?) I will prolly throw in an hour of 50nl/100nl rush each day.

So far on track with my goal of moving up to 100nl before the weekend. Will keep updating every so often.

I think if you are actually going to do this you are going to need to move up really fast, as in move above 400nl as soon as possible
