I know what it looks like but I'm doing this because all I do is play play money and I need something to motivate myself to put the volume in that I want. I want to play 100,000 hands this month of 1m/2m to win a total of 20b chips at Pokerstars considering that my win rate is at least 5BB/100.

A little about me: I've played nothing but play money since I was thirteen. I am what you would call a play money professional. I'm twenty-five-years old and I've dropped out of college three times, probably because I play too much play money, and I'm not going for a fourth time because three tries is enough.

My escapades in real money have all been terrible. I lost three grand in Vegas and several hundred dollars over the years online. I have no other source of income at the moment so I'll probably have to get a real job to support my play money addiction because if I don't have internet I can't play play money.

This is not a joke thread. This is serious. I want to feel what it's like to have a huge amount of play chips and have something to feel good about myself because otherwise I have nothing to show for myself for my addiction. Right now I have 9.1b chips and I worked my way up to 1m/2m all the way from 50/100. It took about two months but I'm finally there. I used a 20-buyin bankroll strategy.

I'm going to say that I started this challenge at the beginning of the month and since I want to play 100,000 hands that means I have to play 3,333 hands a day. Here's my results so far for each day:

2/1/2017
3,343 hands
+185,490,000

2/2/2017
3,347 hands
-516,240,000

2/3/2017
3,343 hands
+312,800,000

2/4/2017
3,591 hands
+231,110,000

2/5/2017
1,864 hands
+1,576,880,000

2/6/2017
61 hands
+310,010,000

My totals for the month are 15,549 hands and up 2,100,050,000.

Unfortunately, for 2/5/2017 and 2/6/2017, I didn't play 3,333 hands and so I'm going to have to increase how many hands I play per day for the rest of the month. I calculated it and it's 3,840 hands a day I have to play now instead of 3,333. That's nearly 6 hours of playing play money a day. I've already played 4700 hands today so I'm well above my quota thankfully. I'll post my results for 2/7/2017 tomorrow.

I know this may found funny but playing for that low doesn't do anything for me. I hate the software that's out right now. I really only like pokerstars.

A bit strange indeed...in all actuality you're playing lower than $0.02/0.05.

How bad you have to be that you can't beat playmoney more than 5bb/100?

What's your Pokerstars screenname? Once in a while I'm on the play money tables just for fun, don't have any options online as an American not living in Nevada / Delaware / New Jersey. I do think you should prioritize getting a job over play money poker and for a better main reason than being able to play play money, though.

Pretty sure this is just a troll guys. OP posted a thread about playing real money games in BBV like two weeks ago.

So I'm pretty glad this post is gaining some traction. This isn't a joke. This is 100% serious you guys. I want to be a play chip baller. So my last update was 2/6/2017.

Here are my results from the last two days:

2/7/2017
4,734 hands
988,020,000

2/8/2017
3,591 hands
815,820,000

Today I've already played 3,100 hands and so I just need 700 more hands to reach my quota for the day and I'm already up 1.5b. Hopefully my upswing continues. Some of you have asked for a graph. Here's my month so far:

laughing out loud at "play chip baller".

If this gives you fun, then all the power to you. Atleast you aren't losing money like most regs do at the start .

Maybe you could even do play chip coaching soon and make some real dorrars.

Edit: I would be up for some play money chip coaching. What would be your hourly rate in playmoneychip/hour?
