Grazts on your challenge. Looks like I gotta step up my video game if I wanna get girls asking me out in response videos. I thought I did alright but I never got any groupies. Coach me?
Ty guys, was nice to win last day. Hopefully I didn't steal all your EVs
woop woop!! Thanks guys.
The legend enters my thread! Curious what you use in terms of gunners/f.lux or anything for reduced eye strain. 200K games I assume you're stacking?
Results and graphs below
Ty for the article, PM me a link and I'll see if google chrome can translate it.
Bigger thanks for the ladyboner comment. That one will stay with me.
I'll make a PG&C thread for 2014. I would have done so already but I'm still putting thought into what I want to accomplish this year and beyond. Likely I'll have some goals but also be willing to adjust as I go. Either way I'll make videos
"Ladyboner" might be my next euro-site screenname. Still kinda partial to "IStuffTens."
Either way, happy to have a social life again.
Ty Ty everyone. It feels good to be active in the poker community.
Actually it is I that ARE BIBWR
Yeah apologize for the delay guys. Drinking and eating restaurant food and stuff for the first time in over 2 months knocked me out a bit. Did a lot of laying around and my energy levels have been a bit sporadic. Video is below along with some results.
All told, I made almost exactly $70,000 in the 70 days it took me to complete the challenge. Here is the breakdown.
Results
Start 571,311 VPPs
Finish 1,000,025 VPPs
VPPs earned 428,714
FPPs earned 2,357,927
$1600 bonuses earned = 23.58 = $37,728
500k bonus = $3,200
600k bonus = $3,600
700k bonus = $3,800
800k bonus = $4,200
1M bonus = $20,000
Bet Bonus = $20,000
Milestone bonuses total = $54,800
BOP Bonuses = $1,880
WCOOP ticket = $5,200
Golden SNG 1x $100 4x $60 = $340
Pre-rb results = -$29,953
Total results over 70 days: +$69,995
It's kinda hard to put that in a graph tbh. My best attempt is looking at what I paid in rake over the challenge ($77,948) and the amount I made in bonuses from SNE, other promos and the Bet ($99,948) and treat this as if it was 128% Rakeback. That graph would look like this:
The above is basically what I made by doing the bet and getting elite vs not doing the bet and not getting elite.
Just looking at my results for the period assuming there was no bet and it's just 70 days in the life of a 2nd year SNE would look like this
Then if you add the bet there would be a 20k spike at the end.

Conclusion
Thank you guys for all your support. I'm not sure what I'm going to do for 2014. Been thinking about it a lot. Once I have a slightly more firm plan I'll make a new thread and hopefully you guys will follow me there. I've debated everything from 3x SNE to giving up SNE (and SNGs) completely. I know this is the skill set that I've worked on for years and I could put in my volume at a dollar a game and have time to study and make that number a little higher and table select across stakes and put up good numbers for 2014. I just don't know if that's what I want.
I always idolized Phil Galfond when I got into poker. He ran up through the stakes in SNGs, jumped into cash and became a crusher. Granted the games are tougher now, but there are still opportunities for those who are willing to seize them. My roommate is playing live PLO in Asia and sending me hands with people getting in 30K on the AJ8hh w/ a 6high flush draw. Us hyper grinders, we work hard, but idk if we're working smart. Idk if I wanna look back and say I played poker in my 20s and this was where I thought the money was.
I think I'm good enough to study, improve and do well in hypers, and I think it's the most profitable thing I can do right now and over the next year. I don't know if spending the next year of my life focused on that is the best for me in the long run. If I go on a massive heater next year I might find myself never considering switching games until a downswing in 2016 and I'll wish I did today.
It's a dilemma that's been on my mind a lot as I'm trying to make a plan of action for next year. I'll likely start out with a loose plan and adjust on the fly. I know I'm willing to work hard and that I can find a way to balance these factors and continue to be happy, successful, and most importantly to me, an inspiration to others to do likewise.
Thanks again.
you guys.
I wrote a bit more about the right time to walk away here if anyone is interested.
