thought I was down 5k for you
2.6k aint too bad"

You should've staked me for MTTs instead. It'd have taken me twice as long to lose that amount!

Really enjoying following this thread, good luck mate.
I had one question though, you seem to earn a lot in bonuses, considering I always hear people complain about stars and their VIP programme at micro/low stakes. Can I ask how many VPPs you've earned this month and over how many hands?
Edit: didn't realise the time, I of course meant the month of July.
Thanks buddy, appreciate it. Yeah Stars bonus structure is pretty good (IMO) if you can put in enough volume. I aim for 1k vpps a day, which means that I'll earn about $1600 every 28 days, and a milestone bonus every 90 days. I'm a bit behind that goal this month but usually I hit it no problem. It equates to about 5k hands a day!
July 2014:
Soooo as you all know last night I was going hell for leather to cross the 4k mark. What ended up happening was I went into monkey tilt mode and lost a fair bit. Still well up for the month but I should've just left it and finished at about $3700. Overall a great month and very happy with it! With $4200 in R/B I was able to withdraw £3500 (pounds, not dollars) and pay off a ton of bills, debts, bought essentials for me and my gf's new flat (bed, TV etc), and booked a lads holiday to Magaluf this month! My goals for this month are as follows...
* Make $2k profit (I'll be away for a week so 2k seems reasonable).
* Have $1500 in my account come 1st September (3 months in a row I've started the month underrolled and it means that a % of profit is eaten up getting back to $1500)
* Do a bit more studying (I did none at all in July, poor show)
* Continue to get in shape for the next 3 weeks until my holiday (will expand on my fitness history a bit later)
* Take a 5BI shot at 100nl and not win 4bi's this time and pussy out
I said it at the start of July and I'll say it again, what motivation I get at the start of a month...
My piss poor night last night saw my BR dropped to $500, but up to $1000 now. The sooner I get to $1500 the better! 35k fpps, might just buy the $600 bonus in a couple of days and be back up to $1500.
Gl to everyone for the month of August, sorry for the long post!
