Hi everyone my name is Vince and I'm creating this post so I can follow my progress as I'm starting a bankroll challenge for life!
I've been playing online poker for about 2.5 years now and unfortunatly managed to be an even player. At begining of this month (august 2014) I studied alot and looking to try to grind the 9max turbos. I played a total of 346 of these to see where I stand mixing 1.50$ & 3.50$ buy-in so I can have an okay volume as I'm playing in sets of 12-15
Here is the results :
Played :346
Avrg Profit : 0.21$
Avrg Buy-in :2.37$
ROI : 6.9%
Profit : 74.31$
Knowing that during this period I have improved my game alot, learned about push/fold, bubble, a little bit of ICM, spotting different players style and playing back at them accordingly, etc. I know I still have A LOT to learn and I am ready for it. Gonna give my 100% for sure.
SO, I'm starting with a bankroll of 200$ at 1.50$ and 3.50$ lvl
Grinding to 600$ before switching to 3.50$ and 7.00$ then will go
for a 100 buy-ins bankroll after that
Short Term Goals :
- Play 5 sets of 12-15 tables per day for 5 days/week for a total of
300-375 games per week
- Try to spot any leaks I have and improve them during week
- Get to a 600$ Bankroll
Long Term Goals
- Maybe Hit SuperNova VIP status
- Play at 30$-60$ stakes
- 10k roll ?!
Thank you if you have read it all even tho my english is far from perfect !
If there is anyone out there knowing the 9max turbos well, I'll be glad to receive any help, tips, comments or anything that will make me a better poker player. I will post weekly results at each friday evenings GL on the tables

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Lets see what we got here for the first week!
First thing I wanna say is that it went *okay*, I mean first day was nice I made 20 buy-ins profit when the 4 others went very swingny !!! I was struggling with between 11and15 BBs stacks! Got scared a little and decided to start reading Collin Moshman's Sit 'N Go Stratgy book instead of putting up that much volume and not play *my* A-game wich probably equal to a C-Game in fact. Let see the result :
Played :283
Avrg Profit : -0.02$
Avrg Buy-in :2.25$
ROI : -1.3%
Profit : -4.56$
Despite this not so great first week, I learned ALOT and thats what I'm aiming : Always improve my game.
What I've learned during this week :
1--- Multi-tabling 15 tables is just to much for me when it comes to a point where I have 4 tables at bubble stage + 2 tables 3handed + 2 HU I just don't have the time to make good enough decisions to show a longterm profit
2--- Low Stakes players really don't seem to understand some important points like Position or not gambling your stack at 15/30 lvl with Jacks for exemple or never folding to cbets, etc. Understanding ICM ( not saying I'm better, I'm just starting ) but a good exemple would be let say 4 players left, Im 3rd in chips with 11bbs holding Pocket eights on BTN with SB having like 6 bbs left and Chip leader on BB smooth calls with QToff spiking a T on flopp and I'm out. IMO its the right play but spot like these tend to make me think I played badly.
3--- Started to take notes on REALLY loose or REALLY tight opponents and those who multi-table with 6 or more tables so I can adjust to them.
I also try to spot players who play to cash and players who play the bubble correctly so I can exploite it
Started with a 200$ BR, now im standing at 205.45 $ because I unlocked a 10$ bonus
and OBV got ChromeStar VIP lvl
Objectives and changes for week #2
1-- I will play less tables at once so I can play better poker and not worrying about VIP lvl and big volume
2-- I will also play only the 3.50$ in sets of 6-8 depending on traffic.
3-- Gameplan is to play 200 Sng and have a 20 buy-ins profit (pre-rackback)
4-- And lastly, Read that book entirely and start to read it a second time and Highlight important points I would like to emphasize in my game
5-- Right now I'm looking here and there to see if I could find any Coaching Material either in Text or video format or anything
Lastly, I'm really positive regarding the week I'm about to grind and would really appreciate any feedback !! Thank you even if you just read my post it keeps me motivated Let The Week#2 Begin
