Hey guys!

I'm a 24 year old student from Belgium in Europe. I'm kinda struggling at school, but I've been playing poker since 6-7 years or so, with a lot of ups and downs. So if I ever drop out school, poker is more or less my plan B. Basically I'm already playing "for a living" since my only income is always have been out of poker. I'm living at home with my mom, I pay everything myself (with poker money) except my clothes.

At the moment I have $1,412.57 in my PokerStars bankroll, and this is the only money I want set aside for poker and thus for making more money/an income/a living.

I will mainly play cashgames (probably Zoom and Regular tables) going from 10-50NL, whatever I feel like, but certainly not higher.
I probably will play some MTTs too, with a maximum buyin of something like 11$ (or something I won a satty of)
I don't really like the whole "grinding SNGs" idea. Don't like to have 100$+ registered in 20 4.5$ 180mans or something like that.. It's probably just me, but I don't like it, even though I know they are quite soft and the fact that I kinda think MTT(SNG) poker is a lot softer than 100bb+ cashgame poker.

At University in Belgium, I'm studying something which has to do with Social Media and stuff like that.. so I kinda like the idea of doing YouTube sessions or videos from time to time, or streaming on Twitch etc... but this is something for the near future!

So:

Bankroll $1,412.57
VPPs this year 14,201.98 (started the end of February)
VPPs this month 11,661.25 (probably my best month ever )
FPPs in store 11,552

[ ] Get Supernova
[ ] Buy an iPad Mini for 30k~ FPP
(which is quite expensive, so I might go for cold hard cash and buy an iPad Mini in the store)
[ ] Mainly winning months
[ ] Get a 1k+ result in an MTT
[ ] Play 50-125k hands/month
[ ] Put money aside for vacation in July/August/September


The VIP shop in Belgium (Pokerstars.be, not .com/.eu/.FR etc..) looks a little bit different:


I hope this thread will be a success.. Looking forward to having a nice stay here!
Sometimes I will give away some $ to people (or put them into a MTT) who keep the tread alive and comment

Good Luck

What did you play to get 11k vpps in Feb if you only have $1500 in your acct?

Must have been serious volume...

Good luck! As far as i know, twitch doesn't allow poker streaming, but there are other options.

I've played somewhere around 20-28 tables of regular tables of 25NL in the beginning, using the TableNinja 2 "Ninja Tile" option. But noticed that after a while I couldn't keep up.. So went to 4-6 tables of Zoom after that. 25 and 50NL. 6M at first, but a lot of FR too.. But I probably will play a lot of 25NL (maybe even 10NL) from today on. Need to work on my game some more. Too many spew spots..

Thanks guys! Going to do my first session for today..

I think some players stream on justin tv, gl

First session for the thread has been quite swingy.. made some spewy plays and got sucked out twice, but in the end we made a profit, and we're hanging under EV.. which sucks, but whatever

graph:


will review my session tonight and post some hands somewhere tomorrow!

Used 30$ of the bankroll for a Cardrunners membership of two months!

VPPs this month: 13,281.42
VPPs this year: 15,822.15

Hope to still get like 18k (total) or so VPPs this month, would be awesome I really want Supernova..
