Facts about me:

- I'm 21
- I go to college full time where I get decent grades
- The last time I made a withdraw was 3-4 months ago when I withdrew $1500ish that I built up from $150 in 4-5 months. Ever since then I have kept up with poker in pretty much every aspect but only really play big MTT for fun. See if I can get lucky.


Last time I did a $5 goal which was a prop bet with my redic nerdy roomate. It was about whoever could run up $5 the most in a month. I busted so he auto won. rofl The reason is because of poor bankroll management, which is why I am posting this. No excuses for bad bankroll management!

So atm I have $10.61 in my account. I could put in like $20 or so every week but as a poor collage student with poor parents I dont think I can blow it. I am going to start by playing the .10 360 man turbos. I just played 4 of them to test them out and am up like $1 so they seem solid. After that I'll move up to the $1 45s (I know the rake is terrible, but I have played these more than anything else and feel redic good in them. What I will do after that I dont know yet


So plan of attack:
-Play poker 4-6 hours a day
- Start out with .10 360 turbos
- Use good bankroll management
- Dont get tilted

go me!


Current roll: $10.61

Edit: Oh, and August 17th is when I go back to college and I obv wont have more time for tons of poker like I do now. Some people sleep for like 12 hours in the summer, I sleep for like 3. Like to do as much as possible with friends and stuff. Thats why some of the hours I play can be really weird. (Like 2-6am)

Good luck. It will be interesting to see if you can get there. I would probably jump into 2NL with $1 and see where I could go from there.

I cant do 2NL without doing like 15 tables. Takes too long waiting for the goods to double up



Going to start now. 10 tables of .10 360 turbos!



Start: 11:35

This was probably the worst session I have ever had. Everytime I got it all in with the best hand I lost, everytime I was behind preflop I couldnt come back. I lost every coinflip. 12 tables, 2 cashes, 1 final table (Which I got 9th)


I knew that these Turbos were shove fests, but meh I was hoping for a better result.



gonna take a break and do it all over again in a few hours/


stop time: 1:11PM

tuna does taste pretty good tbh. and its cheap also good for u too with the protien and low fat. those .10 are worthless tho. top prize is what? 7$? doubt ull win 1 outta 200 times either and u gotta cash quiet alot to stay profitable. gl.

Just played 6 of these and made .20. lol. I think I'm going to stratch this and go to cash. if you dont get like top 5 these things are worthless.



Thinking about playing 2NL with my roll on the table. I'll try that for 1-2 hours and see how it goes

told yeah. anything over 180~ players is impossible to cash in. its all a variance fest. your best bet is to play 1-2 $ dons or stts. or you can run 2nl. ur choice. i think i might do the same goal as u.
