Yo guys...

My name is Brian (BDEL123 on stars)

I am an 18yo from london and for the last few years have been super interested in poker.

I previously made a thread about grinding a roll to $300 from $27 which i did (lucky to completed won a $1.45 turbo for $140 bulk of profits) but thread was kind of **** due to a bad plan.

This time i will basically be following chillin_dude's plan when he completed this challenge. (shouts to chillin_dude that was inspirational m8 congrats)

The plan is below -

Step 1 -Deposit $300, play $2.50 180s & low buyin mtt’s on stars till I have $1800.

Step 2 – After I have got my roll to $1800 playing $8 180s mainly, 2.50 180s. Also play any mtt up to around $11. Grind hard till I have $6000k in the bankroll. If at any point I drop below $1250 I have to go back to step 1 till I have $1800 again and try again at step2 again. I still will not be withdrawing any as don’t really need any Real Life funds.

Step 3 – Then with the $6k roll I can play any mtt up to $55. This gives me 100buyins, if at any point I drop below $3.5k I have to move down to step 2 until I hit $6k and repeat the process.

Step 4 - Once my roll is $15k I will play any mtts up to $109. If I drop below $9k I will drop down to Step 3 again. I will be playing The Sunday majors (Warm up and Million) but only if I make a package and sell on 2+2.
I will still mainly be playing the 180 man’s with the buy ins ranging from $8 to $35
As for a bankroll that excides this point I have no idea what I will be doing will think about this closer to the time (When I get there).
I am looking to put in some serious volume over the next three months and have set a few ambitious targets.

Targets
1. Have $10,000 more in my liferoll by the end of July. (Ambitious)
2. Play a live event (not really sure about this)
3. Try to get into a skype group or something to improve as a player.

If anyone has a group they talk with and wouldn’t mind me joining or want to create a group I will be up for it

I know the plan is basically the same as chillin's but if a plan works stick with it right?

Ty for reader fell free to post i will try to answer all (if any) questions ty guys

So guys i basically started today with a roll of $300 but dont feel like grinding properly There are a few reasons for this they are A. barca vs Chelsea B. having real problems with getting HEM2 to work on my PC (sent like 10 e-mails to support and with all there suggestions still not working) C. I cannot mass table to the extent i want as i have not purchased Table ninja primarily due to not being sure if it will work if as HEM2 doesn't.

But any today was a crazy session played only 13 180 man's total buyin $32.50 but cashed 7 time including a first (nice to bink on first day) a second lost AQ to AK for all the chips a 4th a 9th and 3 10th-18ths to cash for $259.83 and make $227.33 with an ROI of around 700% (wonder if i can keep that up lol) Also played a few low stakes Mtt's but whiffed all to make a lose of arond $10-15 To leave my roll at $514.83 not bad for the first day.

Still in the big $4.40 hopefully can bink this and move up a step today would be nice

Anyways guys thanks for the read and fell free to comment

So guys today has been another super low volume day as i just don't want to keep playing without a hud/table ninja i made a few bucks in 180's with a third place and a 10-18th i have just about broke even playing Mtt's today with me cashing in the $3.30 2xturbo rebuy in last 110 will update again if i go super deep

So overall average day but should all be going good when i have a hud

Gl, subbed. I will also play the 2.5$ 180 man's starting next week and concentrate on mtt's.

super heater lol

What you mean the start?

ty gatavas19 GL when you start 180's hopefully run into you on the tables

2+2 finally back
guys basically my roll has been bouncing between $400-600 have not really put in many hours of serious volume but that is all about to change my hem2 is finally up and running and i will be able to keep track of everything.

Done with the short update a have a ? for any body who cares to answer - Basically i have had a few deep run in big mtt's $4.40 finish 41st and scoop ante up $7.50 131st along with other 1-300 remaining left out of 10k+ fields and get annoyed when i get knock out is there any way to get away from this feeling.

Also i will put up a bust out hand from the scoop event and hope for some decent feedback

ty for reading bdel94

basically i now feel that i should shove flop if i am going with this hand. It was difficult to fold because there are literally 5 combo's that have me beat on flop (This is just a cooler right) btw if i win that pot im 3rd in chips with 130 left

glgl go kill them sng's

Short update played the low scoop Mtt's and the big 11 and storm with no cashes ouch today i will grind 180's with some scoops potentially will update later

ty bdel94

GL! Subscribed

So guys today i put in another 30ish 180man session and got 1 min cash lol (all 180 man grinders will no that when you are not winning the flips with 40-50 left your gonna have a bad day) I also played the big 11 and a 2.20 turbo whiff both after building my stack a little. And i am currently playing the $11 scoop nlh freeze out and have around 11.5k but people can still buy in so will update if i get anything going

bankroll at $425.79 so around an $85 losing day but i feel that i am playing better than i have at 180's and playing more tables then ever so after i fully adjust to stacked 24 tabling i will crush i promise.

Not the best update but i feel its better to write something then nothing

Pretty awesome hand kinda beautiful



Guys also if there is anyone who want to chat about 180 mans like a study buddy pm me

guys i am just wondering that if my $won is like $-30 and the $ev is like $50 does this mean that i am playing terrible. what exactly does this mean?

also finished about 3000 in the scoop$11 lost AJ to KJ for what would have made my stack about 25k instead of 10 then lost K10 to A7 with 9 bb

Good luck mate. Not a tourney player but thought I'd send some luck to a fellow UKer!

ty rivered_nuts

GL dude.. wish I was able to play on pokerstars, US here.. best wishes

so guys i fired up a much earlier session of 29 games have four left going and have had 1 min i do not feel that i am playing bad i just feel that i can not win a 70-30 60-40 or anything really just flopping really bad and when all in not winning flips but hay that 180 mans.

bankroll update - $354.91 kinda horrible considering 3 days ago it was $550

so guys yesterday ended up with 2 more cashes for like $30 which brought back to like $360 i then played the scoop $27 turbo super knockout (real bad bankroll management but take a shot at such a huge payout obviously did not cash lol) so i am starting today with a bankroll of $333.55 i will not be taking any more shots until bankroll is back at around $500 as for the scoop main L i am trying to get on the marketplace to sell a big% but not sure when that i going to happen hopefully b4 or i will have to come up with a different plan.

Someone ask for a graph little sample size and does not have maybe my first 4-600 games (pre hem2) but anyways here it is : it is not pretty

Ok guys so there seems to be something wrong with the image can some one please give me a guide on how it is done ty

So guys today has followed on from yesterday and the day b4 that i just can not win any flip deep and so keep dropping $$$'s daily around a 100 buying downswing but hay cant moan about that think about the downswing that theginger45 went through lets hope i turn it around too.

today i played 29 games for a total buy in of $72.50 and got an amazing 4 min cashes which means i am a around $53 loser on the day but i think that i am playing very well in most spot and y the end of today's sessions noticed something that could really help i feel

anyway bankroll at around $280 i think that if it drops below $100 i will play the $1 90mans for a bit but lets hope that that doesn't happens
