Hi,

I'm ScriptWriter. I live in South Korea.

I used to play MTTs professionally until I got a full-time offer from a reputable TV station in Korea for script writing. My job is fun, getting to meet with famous actors and actresses.

My job has a lot of free time during off season. Therefore, I started to play cash game, which I have never played until now.

Since I had taken all my bankroll off PokerStars for living expenses and savings, I recently redeposited $1000 onto Stars for 20bi @ NL50.

I will primarily play ZOOM to get more hands.


My goal is to keep building my bankroll to a level where I can play NL200 comfortably.

My strategy to climb up is the following:

NL50 : Reach 3000 -> Move up to NL1000 -> Reach 6k -> Move up to NL200
NL50 : Down to 750 -> Move down to NL25

I have PT4 and HM2, so graphs are from each different program.

Here is my graph for today's session.



Here is my graph for the last 4 days
