lot of rake to do before 2012 ends

hi!
im an italian, 19yo player, i grind from nl100 to nl 400, but my goal is to make about 60k€ of rake before the finish of 2012.
plus i go to college so i've very busy days sometimes, so it will not be so easy...
of course i want to make profit at the table too

the best thing i would like to do is to make 100k of rake but if i dont play a lot of nl200 and higher by now it will be very very hard

sorry or my bad english skills, well then..

lets grinding!

Re: lot of rake to do before 2012 ends

Hey , gl with your grind.

Why do you set your goal in rake ? Hands, rakeback, vpps seems to be goals most people set for themselves. I know that in the end it all the same but it's just kind of weird

Where do you play , what kind of rakeback / vip status ?

And show us some grapsh

Re: lot of rake to do before 2012 ends

well.. atm i dont have made a count about hands to do cause i dunno neither which level i feel confortable to play more... i need 60k of rake to reach the top vip status on my skin of ong.it, the rb should be around 70%, the name is "imperor" in italian "imperatore"

graph for today

**** day pd... lal.. nice run @nl100 -.-" someone has to coach me about winning flip..

Re: lot of rake to do before 2012 ends


wtf man... i feel soooo sick after this, about 40 min to lose 900€ :S, no pot won, lot of coolers/badbeats/suckouts...

but...
this is the graph of the day, fortunally in the night session i made about the same amount in 1 hour..



this challenge seems so boring, and so easy.. maybe i should increase the hands at higher stakes for example at nl400 and decreasing at nl100..

atm -60.410€ of rake to do... tomorrow i'll be at -60.000 and i'll have a bonus plus milestones of 2,5k€ which is actually not so bad :Q___

im tilting a lot cause of the internet key, that it doesnt work well, so im losing a lot of hands tracked + im losing a lot of good hands to play cause i go sitout -.-"
i could play another 1 or 2 hour, i've to do other 120€ of rake for the milestones... but im tilting so bad that i dunno if i want to play anymore for today..


but on the account its +835

let's try in an hour.. if not i'll have to attend for my bonus
i was dreaming to make +3,5k today when i was up to 1k in 1 hour

Re: lot of rake to do before 2012 ends

where close to BO if I may ask?

I played 2 years basketball in Cervia and studied in Rimini, so I know some places...

are you playing a lot live?

How much is your BR playing this big limits?

focus more on your winnings then on your rakeback!!

Re: lot of rake to do before 2012 ends

nice! btw modena, on the west side of bologna

i've never played live, and i dont have a deck in my house lol

i got about 50k, i dont feel so confident losing a lot of money at nl400 but i spew a lot at nl100 cause i dont feel the weight of losing at that limit... my mindset is weak on this side...

update in 2 or 3 hour with graph of the day
