First off, I'd like to ask a mod to please delete my previous newly created thread "$100 to $1000+ by Decemer 31, 2010," since I was genius enough to misspell the word 'December' in the title. Thank you.

Now, let's try this again.

Well as some of you may know, over the past 24 days I managed to increase my Full Tilt balance from 80 cents to $100.48. It started with .8NL, then Daily Dollar Satellites, then $1 45-man SNGs, and most recently Limit Hold'em FR cash games, starting at $.05/$.10 and now at $.10/$.20.

I have found Limit to be quite beatable, so I want to use it to predominantly increase my bankroll until I have enough to comfortably try the $4.40 Rush 135-man SNGs (which I was able to crush before I went busto a few months ago). I'm thinking $600 will be a somewhat safe starting point for those, and if I go on a 25+ BI losing spree, I'll go back to Limit and regain those lost BIs before trying again. If the $4.40's end up not working out too well, I'll stick to Limit.

My Limit progression will be as follows:

Current: $.10/$.20 until $150
At $150: $.25/$.50 until $300
At $300: $.50/$1 until $600
At $600: Spam $4.40 135-man SNGs or, if necessary, $1/$2 until $1000+

The following is what I hope to accomplish:

[ ] $250 by the end of September
[ ] $500 by the end of October
[ ] $1000 or more by the end of 2010
[ ] Silver Iron Man or higher every month

I went from $.05/$.10 to $.10/$.20 (meaning having 300 buy-ins) within four days, so obviously I'm leaving myself quite a bit of leeway to make this work. I don't want to get too ahead of myself so I'm setting the milestones relatively low. Wish me luck!

Decent start to the day. A 3-hour session of 6-tabling over 1289 hands yielded the following results:

Total Buy-in: $34.00
End Result: $44.45
Difference: +$10.45

Since I switched over to Limit I've played about 8100+ hands, and have a ROI of 39.9%. I know I need another 20K~ hands for it to be more accurate, but so far is that a decent number for my volume?

Well this last session certainly sucked. I got tilted from a few beats from dead money who literally plays ATC (it's like raises don't matter to him). Technically I still "profited," since at the tail end I managed to get back above even, but today doesn't feel like a win. I probably won't 8-table again for a while. Got some decent volume (1598 hands) in for just 3 hours though.

Total Buy-in: $47.30
End Result: $47.56
Difference: A whopping +$0.26

Hands of LHE played since start of challenge: 9739
Total Hours played: 31.5
Total Profit: +67.54

Current Bankroll: $91.19

Would be $111.19, but I invested $20 into another BAP, which promises to at least double, possibly triple.
