Started with $35 loan on Stars on June 10th. Upto $423 now.



Aiming to get my bankroll to $1500 by the end of July.

Goals:
- $1500 bankroll
- Goldstar status
- 29k fpps so i can purchase x2 $250 electronic store gift vouchers from the Stars VIP store. (Gotta add a 32inch lcd to my grind center now don't i) Currently sitting on 2666 fpps.

Looking to put in about 3k hands a day from now until i finish. Will try update daily.

What did you play to get it up this high?

like 75% NL5, rest NL10 and NL20. Midway through today and can comfortably say this is one of the worst run bads i have experienced. Gym now. Stay tuned for updates!

update:

Today has been fu luck terrible



not over yet though. time for robusto.

finished at - 60 for the day from just over 8k hands. (lots of hands because i was trying to get unstuck!)

Bankroll is $361.42
fpps: 4158

i'm sorry for this newb question.

5NL, 10NL, 20NL.

You are talking about micro right?

5NL = $.02/.05 blinds
10NL = $.05/.10 blinds
20NL = $.10/.20 blinds

xNL where x = 100 big blind buy-in

Nice, thanks!


and good luck to the OP.

Made Goldstar! But overall more BS in my first session today. Couldn't hit a draw and villains were hitting tons of 2 and 3 outers, especially before the money went in so ev doesn't do me justice



Looking forward to running well soon. I've had KK vs AA 8 times now (won zero of them as well) and only once had my AA vs KK.

bankroll:$344.52
fpps: 4612.73

Grats on Goldstar! gl on running good soon

another day, another 8 buy ins under ev.



this **** really has to stop. 2 days like 20 buy ins under ev. Its gotten to the point where im petrified about getting my money all in. It's sickening because im surrounded by a ton of terrible players yet i just can't seem to hold against them. Either that or they magically turn a 2 outer and get the money in. This is proving to be much harder than i first thought.

Went to the gym, took my rage out on the bench and came back with a better attitude. Probably done for today. Finished at -$25.40 which is a decent comeback. Watched some videos as well so im looking to applying a few things tomorrow and hopefully booking an actual win!

not much volume today but at least some profit. Lost a a fair bit of it back at the end but thats the nature of 50bb games.



Managed to release the $50 stellar reward bonus so thats good!

Are you playing under the same(or similar?) name on stars? I think I've played a bit with ya, although I typically go out of my way not to sit at your tables. Just finished 100k hands at NL5. Took me forever though, I wish I had your ability to put in volume=p

Anyway GL mano, the run good will come.

sir, u swing more than i do.

haha thanks man. yeh same name on stars as i use here. Im actually heading back there to play. NL5 has always been my favourite place to play for some reason.

Yeh the FPPs are good but its time to leave 50bb poker. So swingy and i run like complete death. Especially when im used to this:

:

Anyhizzle played a small session today;



Def my final 50bb session. Its annoying because the players are actually so bad you feel like its impossible to lose long term but unfortunately maths/pokerstars don't agree. Here are my last 4 glorious days of sunshine lollipops and good times at 50bb NL25.



So yeh back to the warm embrace of NL5. I'll play NL10 as well when i feel like it. Overall graph:



Bankroll: $377
FPPs: 6534

Ahhhhhhhhh i love you NL5. 18 tabling for 45 mins =

Was busy today and yesterday so unable to play. Tried to play a small session then but its the worst time to play. Factoring in this session and my NL5 the other day im back on the mend.

Definitely going to try take some shots at 100bb NL25 in the coming days. Aiming to make platinum star this month which will really help me accumulate FPPs.

Bankroll: $432.39
FPPs: 6631.83

Do you think the 20-50bb 25nl tables are more profitable than the 40-100bb ones? I've been playing 25nl for a while now and with the new tables its tightened up a lot at the 40-100 tables.

yeh i think 20-50bb have a ton more fish and would certainly be more profitable, but its a matter of identifying the correct strategy and applying it.

Halfway through today. Fairly steady going. At the moment im trying to decide what to play. Might have a go at NL25 Full ring this afternoon. Here is all my play thus far.



Bankroll: $460
FPPs: 7004

Played about another 1k hands this evening. Won about 1 buy in at NL25 fr so im basically back to peak. yay.

Bankroll: $484
FPPs: 7167

Plan is to play 5k hands tomorrow.

Last few days have been kind of bad. Decided to play some more NL25 FR yesterday and managed to drop 3 buy ins from getting KK vs 2 people with AA and also from a failed bluff where i silly to think a donk would fold top pair. Had to withdraw some moneys some im going to call this challenge "making 1.5k profit by the end of July" rather than having a 1.5 bankroll.



Bankroll: $221.31 (would have been about $420 without withdrawals)
FPPs: 7803

Your post is similar to mine. I had my BR at 690, trying to get to the 1000 mark and then BLAM back to 440. Idk what the f happended.

Just keep grinding the micros..not much experience involved but it will get ur bankroll soaring.

It just amazes me, like it probably does you, that I deposited 25 dollars on the 6th of this month. turned that into 690 in 3 weeks. whyy do i keep going back and forth now?

Still trying to get my goldstar too, 1000 more vpp

how do u get the graph w/ all in ev? Is there software that does that? Does it work for tournaments too?
