yeah same on stars as it is on here Whats yours?

gl with that haha

OP what do you think of knockout 90/180mans?

I cant wait to see you progress! GL mang im follwing

gl man... im actually doing something very very similar to this... with less exact goals and a much much nittier approach. plus i cant put in volume cause im in school... but still should be a good sweat. i 100% believe you can do it. gl sir.

cause getting staked is for super nits ldo, and its so much nicer to know you did it by yourself/have all the extra maniesssss

Congratulations for making a thread worthy my first post in this forum

Wish you all the best of luck and you have just inspired me to do a similar challenge! I guess we'll see each other in the 2's

peace

Massive typo, no one spotted it except you!
Re knockouts - I cant really give a view, I've never played them, dont even know if they exist on stars?
Thanks!
Sounds good, if you make a thread I'll follow your progress, I'm trying to be a little nitty, you must be super nitty! 100% is a nice figure, hope its right!
And I think getting staked can be a really really bad idea for some people, and don't think it would suit me at all.
Thanks a lot, glad I inspired you to post, look forward to reading your challenge and seeing you in the 2s!

About 30hours till I can start putting effort into this, can't wait!

gl. Starting somewhere similar myself again. Race you to $100k?

What software are you using to track your progress with the graphs etc.

Sure, sounds a plan. Some forefit for the loser?
Holdem manager.

hope you leave 45mans soon
would be just better for everyone that way =)

glgl!!

You know that you'll need 150k profit to do this, right?

yea me too, same as here, gl at the tables, c ya there sir!

$99,700

Have subscribed, all the best reaching your goal, good plan going to use it too but ill be way behind as ill only be playing 18 hours a week and 4 to 6 tables, no TN yet.

Sure, what did you have in mind? Drinking punishments at a UK liveament, or WSOP if you're going? Starting 1 Jan?

Just don;'t bink the million without selling me 50% first

Haha I'm pretty sure its not, I think I play pretty sub-optimally at 45s, call too loose and burn both equity I think...
Nope!
Thx
Bingo
Thanks, appreciate it. And glad to see you'll give it a shot too, I tried to make a plan that would be be possible for other people if they stick to it and work on their game with any luck.
No idea, just thought it would be cool if we're both starting with like $500 or so from Jan 1st onwards as it would be cool incentive. Not sure about wsop yet, if I've crushed and have like $20k I might go play over there and play lots of $200 venetians and a few wsop $1ks.
We could say something like whoever is at most by like June 15th (5 1/2 months and around when wsop starts I think) has to do something for the otherone. Cant really think of any punishment atm, drinking sounds good tho not whilst playing if I sell some live action in marketplace.
Weee in 18hours I can start proper grinding.
Got to do 3000 word essay before then, really struggling with uni now, and disheartened about it.
If anyones at uni or starting to attend and read this, I'd say to try and focus massively on school before poker, its really hard to mix the two when you've had decent results at poker - it leads you to be disillusioned over the amounts you can make.

Sure, can sort out the details nearer 1 Jan

hi
can i ask whats the name of the mod that picturing the BI/gametype at the table, thank you!

Session 3 Report

Didn't put in a massive session as it was snowing and I want to go play in the snow soon as I've posted this Accidently ended up with 25 sngs going at once which was probably a little too much, but got it down to 20 pretty fast and thats easy. Ran really well at early stages, bad late. That you can tell as I cashed 30% of my 180s but the ROI was pretty meh.
Good thing was I found 10pm is probably prime volume time as I was easily playing 20 JUST 180s, which is massive as my hourly is far higher playing these. So I'll be grinding at that time more often.

Session Begin Bankroll: $343.42
Session End Bankroll: $349.08
Session Profit/Loss: $5.66
Seission Graph:



Overall Profit/Loss: $49.08
Overall Hourly: $5.88

Now my uni is done for xmas I'm gonna be playing way more which is good and I look forward to.

HorvhatH, the software I use is an autohotkey script I had written for myself by someone on this forum, it cost $300 for his time which was probably too much but it does the job, I manually click F6 over a table for $3.25 45 F7 and it lables the table a $2.20 180, or F2 if I want to put in a custom name for it, and its resizable/draggable to whatever position you want, along with any colour text or font.

The guy that designed it said if people wanted it they could purchase it, but I dont think I can post about this in this thread and it would have to be in commercial software forum instead, lmk if you want me to make a post.

Thx and cya for now!

One of the more fascinating aspects of grinding online is what the average person (from my perspective American) would get from your hourly rate. They would say your a complete fool and wasting your time. What they wouldn't grasp is that once your bankroll doubles your hourly will essentially do the same thing. Next thing you know your doing better than most and making $20+.

As for the 180 mans I don't know anything about your style but make sure when the blinds get big steal like a crazy mofo who doesn't have a fold button. CO Btn for sure and you can add as you get more hands on people. Also, I understand your looking for discipline and comfort but don't forget the $6.50 isn't a huge skill jump. Don't be afraid to jump into a few 45s.

GL

thanks for elaborating it, think ill just stick to the good old title bar than as i feel playing the same gametype with 2 different buyins wouldnt really worth the investment=)

gl!

on the grind today chillin?

Yes, I've played a bunch earlier and im gonna play a bunch later and post the results together, I think anymore than 1 update a day would be overkill. Played 92 mtt sngs so far.
