I have decided to return to this forum even though the site of it hurts my eyes.
I am as I once was broke as a joke, A victim of black Friday and a victim of poor life choices.
I have gone from boat loads of monies, to now a couch surfer who is lucky he has friends and people he has leant extensive money to that can help him.

I sit at my friends table, drinking a cup of coffee and reflecting over the years of poker and staring at the bookbag across the room which contains all of my possessions.
My wallet gasps for breath and my mind is just a wandering nomadic odds calculator not in use anymore
I have no real stagnate lifestyle to reach to, and cannot get a job because of my constant moving around.

I am in the south now, far different scene from the old seedy cash games, and shady connections of the north city, so I have had trouble getting my feet about me. No money left, nowhere to really go, not much left to really strive for. With an floating amount of ~32k on FT sitting there laughing at me locked in a space of time that I cant get back for the time being

I have decided to redeposit into the online poker world.
I am very broke, and will be putting from 50-100$ of my last 700$ to my name on a US poker site, which scares me, but alas I have no other choice on how to acquire money accept to sell drugs or something of that nature.

I am going to grind, and grind and grind, all day all night playing MTTs until I reach 600$, then I am going to delve back into the world of 6 tabling 25 NL

I am going to be posting my progress here,
I don't care what anyone says about it, my progress, myself, or my goals.
I don't have a set stake im trying to beat or anything
I used to beat 2/4 and play MTTs on stars

I will post MTT results, and cash once I am rolled for it
I will post graphs and HH because my friend is kindly going to buy me PT or maybe you recommend HM...?

I made this thread to help in my own discipline, not for pure entertainment
anyone who plays 1/2 2/4 NL can relate to then stepping down to 1$-2$ tournaments

Its going to be a long hard grind, but I will update this a lot, Just for the fact that the more people in the thread commenting, the less dumb I want to look stacking off at micro stakes with question mark hands polluting the forums

Anyway to those of you out there who are life broke as I am, maybe you can help give me hope to one day again be sitting at 2/4 3/6 etc... with out the US taking it away.

To all of you kind 2+2ers, and life broke people...
Its will always be ok. Always stay positive no matter what happens to you.


Till next time.

GL!

Play super micro cash instead of MTT's to start imo.

Deposit $100 and play 5nl and move up every 20 buys.

You can do itttt!

Ummm, not true? ACR has good cashouts as well.

I have sent many many emails throughout the time its has been froze...
FT is shady business

And yes I have filed a claim, and am awaiting payment via stars I guess since they are suppose to hook it up...
sell my bankroll?
ill take 20K for the 32~ if someone wants it, but transfers and trust have dissapeared it seems...
Plus im not some known player that would have the community behind him as trustworthy etc..
Maybe one day I will get it back before im literally under a bridge TT

Unfortunately, its stories like yours which is why some people look down on "gamblers". I wish you luck in your adventure from busto to robusto.

Just do not take any "shots"

It's better to open few 2NL tables, grind for couple of hours (and then some) and have, almost guaranteed, 60 to 70 $ at the end of a week.

GL today man. I deposited 80 on Carbon 2 weeks ago today, after about 7000 hands at 4NL got up to 200, so far after 6000 hands at 10NL im right around 410. Hopefully you can do the same, although I dont think I want to see you at the same table :/
