For the past 2 years I tried going pro on mtts [profit 30k~] Recently hit a downswing. Im currently 25 and looking to change my goal from career to hobby.


I believe if I want to achieve my bankroll goal I will need to take proper action. I've made threads before but I fully plan on committing to this goal.
I will update this weekly/monthly Enjoy the ride.

Bankrolls
Bovada:1.15k
Bol:1.2k
Acr:1.5k

Poker Goals: [Actions]
Build from 3k bankroll to 50k+. [play 400 mtts/month]
Play live mtts
Play every venom. [fire 500$ in venom satties every month]
Study 6 hours/week [Run 30 hrc sims/week + watch training videos 5 hours]



Life Goals: [Actions]
Eat 2.5k calories/day [Eat breakfast/dinner + a mass gainer smoothie]
Workout 20 minutes/day 5x/week
Read 1 book/month [Read 1 page/day]




Training content I will be using:
Runitonce
Raise your edge
Turbokings
Hrc
Looking into BBZ/EPC

Awesome, man! Good luck. The life goals aspect of it is SUPER important. I'm very early in my goals and one that has fallen to the wayside quickly is sleep. You have to have that balance!
I look forward to following your progress!

GL! What is your ABI and average field if you don´t mind sharing?

Umm for the bankroll probably a 10-20$ abi with a ton of satties and average field of 200.... Most satties ill use in small field so i can build a bankroll up to 10k~ so i can max fire more satties/50$ ones.


in general i abi 40$-50$ avg field 200-400~ feel free to ask anything.

Bankrolls
Acr:1.5k [haven't started acr yet]
Bovada:2.7k
Bol:800$

Start:3.8k~
current:5k


Poker goals
Studying is going good [got through all the runitonce videos i wanted to watch] plan on watching some mtt hand historys but besides that im done with rio
Hrc Still got 80 sims to run gonna get that out of way in next few days.

Life goals: Been derailed due to having a ear infection.
2.5k calories: i was sick but i recently went to aldis and found all the food i need to get calories.
Reading book: plan on making up for this after venom next week.
Workout: i workout on breaks.

Tourneys are stupid. Cash games are what the real men play. Good luck OP.

edit: I'm just giving you a hard time by the way, tourneys are fun and you've clearly won some serious money playing them so far.

Bankroll challenge/goals officially start august 4th~
Br:
Chico:1450
Bovada:2700
Acr:1500
Total:5700 start:3800
goals for grind days:
On days i grindlay 60 tournaments
Play 1k-2k in buy ins moving up to 2k-3k in buyins/day

Going to change my poker goal of sattieing into every venom to be more sattieing into big field on bovada. The venom has wayyy too deepstack poker for my comfort. Looking forward to the 2.5m boss if i can find a ticket in.

Poker studying
study 3-4 hand historys/week
1 hour of video content/day
5-10 pio hands/day.

reading: I think if I finish poker early ill read at night to let my brain relax/sleep.
Calories: going to start meal prepping on off days to get the cals up.
Workout: i can workout during training videos/during 5 min breaks during sessions.

My real goal would be to go on a massive upswing and be able to take alot of days off and just relax/study parttime. I find playing is low ev compared to studying in poker.

Br:
Chico:2500
acr:1500
bovada:2500 [threw away 1k @ 200 nl]

Goals:
Poker studying: 2 hand historys/week
4 hours of videos/week [Usually i chill with my girlfriend just throw bcp replays/kali poker/rye on well she plays fortnite nice couple time]
20-50 pio hands/day
30 hrc hands/week.


Reading: gonna figure out how to fit this in somehow still struggling
calores:need to meal prep
workout: Been doing good.


I bought range trainer pro postflop lifetime membership recently I mainly just study now. will start grinding more in 1-2 weeks. Im gonna stop posting till september. Goal is 150 hours of studying poker this month. [strongly recommend]

Tools i approve for this thread:
Turbokings.com
Rangetrainerpro post flop+preflop [so lpp too but i never used it]
Raiseyouredge.com
Holdem resources calculator

Its from 2008. No. I think poker books are useless nor have any interest in reading 300 pages when i could study 2 tournaments in that time.

GL OP! Im surprised nobody mentioned the mental part of the game yet. I think a good mindset has never been more important. How are you doing in that aspect? Any recommendations maybe?

Mentally im just a happy-go-lucky guy..... I think drinking water... realizing it could always be worse.Working out. I am a very minimal person so i don't really tilt.


Study+workout+eat food+sleep = No tilt. If you have tilt issues you have issues internally you need to fix.

updates: bricked venom, cashed out my acr roll and officially have a Br start, been running a lot of pio.
Going to start posting monthly now that everything is started i hope this thread brings value to somebody.

This is great, man. Remember how blessed by God you are that you are doing "poker" challenges and God blessed you enough to be talented enough to just do it. I've been so broke for so long through this malpractice hell for 12 years that when i got 3k, i cashed out to pay rent for a few months and buy enough cigarettes and canned food. LOL.

Thanks for that
