Haha thx man, I'm sure u realized that back those months ago! Ridiculous mostly in other ways, but anyway. Looking at the last week I'm averaging about 56 games/hour, obviously this will fluctuate considerably depending on the game variant. 6-max hypers as many as >100/hr, and 6-max turbo/18 mans much lower. Average buy-in depending on what games are filling is another key determinant.

Definitely do a thread next year. You've got 1 follower here
Ah that's awesome. Yeah I think things like this are really cool to show that something IS possible, which people otherwise might just assume is ridiculous. Once people see it happen, they accept a new benchmark and can use that to set against rather than a much more modest one previous.
For me the player I would credit to showing me this is Boku87. I remember when he did the $100-$20,000 (I think..could be off), I thought to myself: "yes, mathematically it can be done and the grind does make sense...BUT IT CAN'T BE DONE!!". I thought that but at the same time was extremely excited to see him go at it and possibly even achieve it. When he did achieve it, he set a precedent.
Hopefully with this I can do something of that nature. I was also keen to show that you don't have to be ballin out of the park on high stakes to do this, and you don't need to sacrifice an entire year of constant grinding. Mid stakes+, solid worth ethic, a very clear plan of attack and an absolute
CERTAINTY that you
WILL SUCCEED are the key ingredients to making it possible.
More importantly, I would hope that anybody can relate the idea of how to attack a goal and use this to their advantage for whatever their pursuit is, whether it's SNE, getting their first $100 bankroll, top grade college year or getting their ass in shape. In fact if you look at the list I just gave in reverse order, I think that's an ultimate action plan.
