Hi, so yesterday I deposited the maximum to get the 250$ reload bonus on pokerstars.

Since i am playing 5NL shorthanded on zoom this is not gonna be easy for me but I could really use the money to boost my bankroll so I decided to create a thread to track my progress.

I have around 150$ and will be moving up with 25 buy-ins.

I have 126 vpps so far so im already behind...

I'll try to update everyday.

gl with this. Should be a nice and easy target for you to get going with.

Why don't you use the 500 you depod to play 10nl? Then withdraw in 30 days?

if you only plan to play nl5 during that time frame then its almost impossible to get 5k VPP s , even @ nl10 it takes around 150k hands a month to get 5kvpp.

Its zoom buddy, 6 tabling zoom its 100 hours in a month at 1500 hands an hour. Easy game.

Confused..... you deposited $500 to get the $250 bonus but you are only going to use $150?

Yes.

I do hope that I will move up soon but I only deposited to get the bonus and will cash it out soon.

Actually I'd be happy if I unlock 200/250 but I don't think there's nothing wrong with aiming higher.

But yes it's going to be hard to get 5000 vpps and i've never put that kind of volume before.

Graph for last day...

205/5000 so far

I moved up today after winning 10 BI this morning. I ended up breakeven at 10 NL after a stupid play by me. If I can stay there until the end of the challenge I think I can do this.

391/5000

You'll get $100 in VIP stellar reward bonus by getting 5k VPPs on the year. Plus the value of the FPPs you'll get. That along with the deposit bonus will already give you a good BR boost at these stakes. gl man.
