Hi all..
Welcome to my challenge.
About me:
I`m a 23 year old who has been playing poker for a year and half. I have probably put in a lot more time than 90% of players with a years experience. My introduction to poker started off with me playing round a friends house, home games £15 buy ins just for fun.. it then turned to me getting into playing tournaments at the local casino and then I really got the bug. I then began to play online losing about 500$ total in deposits before I realized I wasnt phil ivey
... Then the reading and studying began, starting off with phil hellmuths and daniel negreanus books. I then stumbled upon gripsed on youtube and dissected all of his videos. Once I had grasped a good understanding off mtt strategy and lost about 400$ I started playing 2nl and 5nl cash where I lost a further 100$ (lol). My final deposit was 300$ which I ran up playing cash games with the help of xflixx grinding it up series, all his pdf guides, dusty schmidts cash game book and a tonne of run it once videos. I`m now a winner at 25nl cash over a good sample with some 50nl and crush 100nl live. My goal is to transition back to mtts.
The Challenge:
The whole aim of this challenge is to transition back into MTTS and achieve something that will progress into something alot bigger eventually.
My aim when it comes to this challenge is to use correct bankroll management to achieve my goal of 15k. Acquiring coaching at sngs and mtts as I progress will also be a huge part of the success.
Bankroll Management:
Starting bankroll:
Goal:
$15,000
Buy in guidelines:
$50 - $75 = $0.50 45man turbos
$75 - $150 = $0.50 90man turbos
$150 - $200 = $1.50 45man turbos
$200 - $300 = $2.50 90man
$300 - $400 = $3.50 45man turbos
$400 - $700 = $2.50 180 man turbos
$700 - $2000 = $2.50 180s, $4.50 180s and $7 45mans.
$2000 - $5000 = $3.50 180r, MTTs: $3-$11
$5000 - $15,000 = $3.50 180r, MTTs: $5 - $20
Hope you all enjoy.. lets do this!
