Low-roller to high-baller Bankroll Update.

1.


1. Bank roll
2. Winter break confusion
3. Fuck books.
4. Challenge.
5. Gameplan.
6. Recap

1. So my bank roll right now is about 1700$. I have 6k FPP's which could be worth around 90$ if I play the 235 FPP Hyper turbo's and win in 33% of them. But if i need cash instantly, its around 65$ worth (cash bonuses).

2. I'm not sure exactly now, how much i made during break, it could have been anywhere from 500$ to 800$ after Steve looked over my sharkscope, and I negated my loses from cash games. I'm not even thinking about that, just thought I'd update it though.

3. I want to have a 4k bankroll by the time summer comes around. I think this is possible if I do not cash out and actually put in a decent amount of volume. I don't have to cash out at all right now, and I have around 900 in my bank. BUT, I have to buy 20 books this semester for only 5 classes... 20 BOOKS!?!?! lol. Most of them are cheapos, but there are at least 3 that could be 100$ each. That's going to be tough for my balance to live off of for 4 months. I'm going to be tightening up my spending in order to survive. Therefore, I'm doing a challenge!!

4. My challenge is to survive off of X dollars for 4 months. I will figure out what this X amount will be in the next few days. Most likely it will consist of a figure that is my bills for the next few months, and some small denomination for dates with my girlfriend and whatever. I will be posting it in 2+2 when i have that number figured out, and then repost in here. It's gunna be fun :)

5. I should able to make around 600$ a month (with rakeback) until the summer. If I can do this, then my online bankroll will be 4k$. I'm going to have to take advantage of GR88 poker's 700$ deposit bonus that I have unlimited time to complete. This kind of sucks for a few reasons:
1. No VPP's will be earned on stars if I'm playing on GR88. (will make it harder to get Supernova)
2. I don't have much information on the player pool over on GR88.com
3. It's 100bb poker, this could be a good thing, but it's going to make it harder to multi-table.

6. So, I'm going to be playing on GR88.com mostly, and Stars less. I'm going to play on Sunday's and saturdays the most and dedicate around an hour per weekday to poker. That should give me around 65 hours per month to poker. If im playing close to 10 tables it could be around 50k hands a month. That's pretty ideal for my situation. Wish me luck!!

  1. Nice job on building up your Pokerstars account again. That's pretty sick. Any idea what your expense budget is going to be yet? When I first started keeping close track of all my expenses I found that my estimate was substantially more than what I was actually spending.
