Hey there I have been lurking the goals forum for a while, I love watching people try and go for goals and succeeding and providing information on how they are doing. It is very interesting to me.

So I thought maybe I should try it cause maybe it could help me better keep track of how I am doing, and hopefully reach my goal however long it may take.

I'd like to say a little about my poker history. I started playing like 6 or 7 years ago for fun on partypoker when I was like 12 and have always had a love for it since. I always played in high school with my friends and would beat them, and then I figured I try online and ended up winning like 500 dollars and cashed it out. Then i stopped playing online for a while until recently. I put in a 100 dollars and within like 2 days I had made it up to 3k, using horrible BRM and getting very lucky. Then one night I was very drunk and ended up losing my whole roll being ******ed.

Since then I have started reading books such as SitnGo Strategy, online ace, and now I am working on Harington on Online Cash games. I feel I understand a little better things I wasn't doing right. I won some money on a freeroll and got it up to .72 cents and will try and make my roll up with that.

I will play some 2NL with that because I really don't know any other game I could play with that little chips.

I would really like some help on when do you think I should move to the next level? and also I would like to play the $3 sitngos I have had good luck in the in the past when I get enough.

I know people will say just deposit a few dollars. Well I will if the .72 cents fails but it will be fun to try and get it up like this so wish me luck I guess. Even if this doesn't get a lot of attention I'll keep it updated everyday I hope.

Right now I only have HEM trial so I don't know if ill be able to post graphs all the time but I'll try and get the full version soon!



Also, if I complete this I'll make another!

Playing tight at .04/.08 stud8 can build you up to $5-10. That will at least give you some breathing room. 72 cents, that will be a nice accomplishment. GL.

hey sorry guys had a busy weekend so I couldn't post, I did manage to get about 8 hours of play time though I started off great getting a guy to call my AA's preflop and won 2.50 off that. Then I tried my luck at some .10/360 and didnt do so hot so I hoped back on 2NL with my $7 and got it up to $9.

Currently i'm trying out the .10/360 mans again and right now im in 4th with 37 left ill post how it ends in a little.

And also I ran out of my demo on Holdem Manager. Should I download the Pokertracker3 so I can post graphs or what? I plan on buying HEM but I don't have the money right.

Thanks all for the GL!

You can only play Tournament with T dollars. I dont think you can turn them into real money

but yea that's sick. From .72c without reloading.
Thumbs up!

Ill keep posting pictures of my total since I can't post graphs right now cause that sucks. I am alos like 60% of the way to my VIP bonus of $10 so that will be nice to get.

ok so todayi was getting bored so I decided to go to 5NL and i won about 5 dollars, so I decided to keep playing here until I lose a buying but if not I'll just stay here. I also used some of my tournament dollars today and I won .35 in the .25 tournament. I was in like 20th and I went all in with KK and lost to AA and that killed my stack and i never got back to where i was at. And currently I am in a 4-max 4.44 buyin for plo8 and there are about 90 left and 45 get paid we are on our break and I am pretty short stacked but ill see what i can do. Will post again later when I finish and maybe get in some more ring!

ok well that was too easy i'm already completed now I played .2/.5 and killed it on full tilt. I got $10 transfered over from a guy in the trade forums so I can work on my HEM + CR rakeback bonus and I ended up doing very well put in like 12 hours the last two days and hit my goal. I will be making a new goal thread I guess even though this one really didnt get attention and hopefully I will get graphs for when I start the next one. I complete this alot faster then I thought.
