Going to be starting with $100 bankroll on July 1st 2021. I am going to start at 5NL and move my way up through the stakes. Will post daily/weekly/monthly graphs and interesting hands.


Buckle your seatbelts. July should be $100-$2000 minimum or I will be disappointed with myself.

$100 = 5NL
$200 = 10NL
$500 = 25NL
$1000 = 50NL

At 50NL you can make $5000 monthly only playing around 5 hours daily. I work full time for Facebook so I have to play at night and on weekends!


Enjoy & Love Eachother

Good luck, OP.

May I ask, how did you calculate $5,000 / month at NL50?

You're not the best, you failed your other challenge after a couple days it seems. Also you're a toxic douchebag for commenting on other people's threads in the way you did. You'll never make 5k at 50nl, you can't even beat 2 or 5nl apparantly, stick to your shitty job (which also seems like a lie because with a good job you can definately start with more than $100)

About making 5k a month on 50NLz..... I play 50z aswell and I recently came up with this calculation:

I play 4 tables of zoom (which is 1k hands an hour approximately). Let's say I play 5 hours a day but of one of the 5 hours is a non-50NL warm up session (so 4 hours). I take 5 days off monthly. So I play 25 x 4 = 100 hours a month which comes down at 100k hands in the 50z pool a month.

I pay around 6bb/100h on rake and with chests included I receive around 50% rb (looking back to it 45% would be more realistic). So 100k hands with 6bb/100 comes down on $1500 rakeback monthly.

I beat the pool by 5bb/100h (again, just an estimation), so 100k hands = $ 2500 monthly table profit.

$1500 + $2500 = $4k

This was the calculation I've made around a week ago when I started in 50z. Hopefully this was helpful

Good luck Stoic.

50% rb on stars? Even 45 is optimistic no?

I receive $400 rake-back on every $1k I pay in rake (so 40%). And the other 5-10% (honestly I have no clue of the exact number) I used for this monthly calculation is chests. The rb out of a chest can really fluctuate but I THINK I receive a chest every $300 in rake paid (don't know the exact rake paid for me receiving a chest). One time I receive like $10 from it (which only adds 3%) and the other time I receive like $25-$50.....

Hmm ok interesting, I assumed stars was much lower now given how much everybody complains, 40% is not bad

Day 3 Challenge Update - $182
Moving to 10NL tomorrow! Hopefully 25NL in a week. Goal is to get to $1000+ by end of July. Id say I'm doing really good seeing as I'm doing this on the side of my full time job.
