from STUD8 over 8-GAME to the WSOP 2013

after several busted rolls i decided to buy "tiltbreaker" now.
it blocks me from all games and stakes that i dont want to play,
and i can set stop-losses for session/day.
since i made my money at 8-game/stud8 and busted it in plo more than once,
this software is exactly what i needed.
__________________________________________________ _______________
1:
i will deposit ~150$ at 1st april and set my limits to stud8 up to 50c/1$ only,
and excluded myself from every other variant.
i intend to play 4 tables consisting of a mix of 25c/50c and 50c/1$.
2:
with 300$ i will move up to 1/2$ (+50c/1$ to fill up if needed) .
3:
with 800$ its time for 2/4$ (fillin up with 1/2)
since opponents at 2/4$ are a bit tougher, i will wait till i have 200BB to play it.
if the game is bad, i will grind 1/2 only from time to time.
3:
with 1000$ i will start to mainly play 1/2$ 8-game and a bit stud8 2/4$ when the tables are good.
4:
with 2000$ ill play 2/4$ 8-game,
stud8 will only be played when just a single 8-game table is running and not higher than 3/6$.
5:
with 6000$ its 4/8$ 8-game, thats were intend to settle down for 1-2 years
to really get a meaningful samplesize to see if i am in fact able
to win the 2-3BB/100 that i think i could/should.
every now and then on an upswing i will take a shot at the weekly 215$ HORSE tournament.
__________________________________________________ _______________
EXPECTED VALID:
i get robusto at 4/8$ and will save up ~8k to play 2 events at the wsop
(horse 1500$ and 8-game 2500$).
as soon as i have the money for the trip and 6k to keep grinding 4/8$ at home,
i will book my flight and go for it. (need ~14K$)
i think i should get to 300$ till may and reach 800$ in june.
juli should get me to play 8-game, and before august ends i expect to play 2/4$ 8-game.
in october/november i see myself at 4/8$.
now it would need a little bit of rungood to gain enough money for next years wsop,
but its not impossible and i will do my best to get there.
METHODOLOGY.
i will most likely play 15-20 hours a week.
every session will be 2 hours (and a 30 min break, if another one follows).
i will play 2-3 tables in general, occasionally 4 or just 1.
with up to 2.5% of my roll i will take a shot at HORSE tournaments about once a week.
(my ROI is +100% for "other-games").
COMMUNICATION:
im going to update after every session with hands played,
profit/loss and random brags, maledictions and whines.

i deposited 25€ (32$) and grinded 6 tables of 60c satellites to the horse 5.50$ micro-millon.
after timing out with rolled up 6's in stud8, i choose to stop loading more tables.
i busted 6 of 7 and won in the last one.
7 more 1$ hyper-satty's later i had another 5.50 T-$ and made 2.50$ as the bubble-boy.
i was itm in the stud8 micro-million already,
and i am regged at the following micro-mega MTT's:
- horse 5.50$ (running)
- plo8 5.50$
- lo8 5.50$
- triple stud 3.30$
- stud 5.50$
i have 9.93$ left in cash, which i will most likely use to play 1c/2c PLO ZOOM later.
will be the last plo gamble for a long time. i intend to block myself from plo for a whole year
when i purchased "tiltbreaker" in april.
but first of all i will focus on the horse-event that i am in now.
it has just begun and there are already more than a 12k prize-pool.
LETS GO, KICK-START

ran bad and lost all my dollars at badugi, except the 8-game and triple-stud buy-in.
will not play anything else this month, cause im broke.
cant be wrong to take take the next 2 weeks off before starting to grind serioulsy.
if i make a deep run in one of the 2 events, im gonna update.
otherwise ill be back in april with my first attempt to climb up stakes
which wont be disturbed by insane omaha sessions or other unprofitable games.
