Re-learn the game from 0.50sng to WSOP Main event Re-learn the game from 0.50sng to WSOP Main event

Hi everyone ,
I am 29 years old guy French/Tunisien guy working as a sellsman in the sofware industry.
I am playing poker since 2006 and for sure I'm not a winning player :http://officialpokerrankings.com/pok...01814.html?t=3
I play on Pokerstars under the screen name : Tenor75013
I always dreamed to play the WSOP main event ..so my goal will be easy :
Make enough money on stars to play the main event
After reading the Andre Coimbra challenge blog http://acoimbra.com/page/18/ I understood what I had to do..RELEARN the game..I am aware of my leaks and I know what I have to improve.
To do so I will follow Andre challenge but I will set a smaller goal :
From 100$ to 10K playing only sng and mtt's



I know it is ambitious but I think that with enough work and study it is possible.

I will play every night and all weekends.I will try to update every week

I will start with the 0.50 turbo 45 mans sng in order to relearn push/fold mode again
I did not set a bankroll management stategy yet.It will be a bit tight for mtt's because I really do not want to lose the roll


Game study
-I am watching some video on youtube: gripsed tournament review , ander coimbra straegy video and jaime stapled on twitch.
-I am planning to read again some books.
-I am on runitonce and 2+2
-Want to interact with players in a study group on skype

Any advice or help is welcome

Here is my BRM strategy :

100 to 120 0.50 45mans turbo
120 to 150 0.50 90mans turbo
150 to 200 0.50 180mans turbo
200 to 250 1$ 180mans non turbo
250 to 440 2.50 180mans turbo
440 and up switch to MTT micros investing no more than 1% of of my bankroll into a single MTT

If I feel more confident with my game I may change it

yesterday received this message on twitter couldn't resist

Today I spend a lot of time on 2+2 and runitonce. I red lot of post and comment and it is always interesting to see what other player thinks or the advices. I decided that I will only study today.
I started by watching the "Pokerstaples" stream and then watched video strategy from Andre coimbra.He made videos of 0.50$ 45 mans sng..closer to the format I am playing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-LkZyoCOqM

I also spend time looking to this chart http://www.pushfoldcharts.com/fullring/#bb10

Lot of infos that I wanted to try so I started playing. 5 sng was enaugh and using this guide gived me a better idea to what to do about pushing. If you guys could take a look and tell me if you agree with it or not. Made two FT but was really tired so made some mistake.
Here is how I finished the day

I really need to start using icmizer or pokercalculator...

tomorow I will play a lot so I really hope to see some changes

Today I did not play as I wanted..Here in Tunisia it was a holiday and I had to spend time with my family.
I watched a strategy video on youtube : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YO-ho9akRo

In this video he use a chart that I found on 2+2 here :
http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/23...nk-you-824728/

really nice infos

I did not play as I planned...only 10 sngs and one 0.27$ MMT
In sng I finally won one and thats a great feeling
In the 0.27$ MMT I played straight foward and with the chart.I do not really know what do think about it because I endend up "Runner-up" for a huge payout of 74$


I run well,winning lot of 70/30.Feel really great!!!I needed that to show me thaT I am going in the right way.
now the bankroll is


According to my BRM strategy I have to move to the 90/180 but I feel I need more practice in the 45 format.Maybe I will change this week end.
I have to change my country on pokerstars I will do that in the next days
I really enjoy this Challenge diary

The bad new of the day..I read that she stoped GG

I played all the week after my work. Started with 45 and then wanted to test my self in the 90/180.Made some FT but no 1st place. Then I wanted to try some 1$ non turbo and I made a one FT
Sunday I played some MTT and sats ... not alot but I need to be more disciplined with bankroll management.

I played a lot of sng's and I am still struggling. I know that I have to study but I dont know really what I have to do. I am thinking to sub for one month at run it once but the bankroll is still small for that.
If anyone has good study material to share that will be great
This week I will not play a lot I need to study more.... a lot more. cause with my 0%ish win rate no matter how much I play it is not profitable
To be honest, I lost confidence.. BUT I really want to improve my game. If anyone has some advice, feel free to tell me
