hey guys im new to this forum but had a read through it and looked like a very active forum(unlike some) and thot id sign up and set myself a new challenge for the forum

iv not really been active on stars for some time and made a random 100 $ depo to test the waters to see what it was like these days as my main focus was really concentrating on my live game and studying the game alot more .

so im going to deposit 25$ today and set myself a goal of making 2.5k as my first challenge from now till the end of june(i should manage it sooner tho)

there wont be many rules apart from i will have set amounts to make each day and if i want to enter a mtt it will have to be exess is what i have needed to make(as youl obv all know the varience of mtt's are so wild i dont want that getting in the way of my increase towards the goal)

same bb rules of 500 bb before the move up i might go a llitle easier on the bankroll managment at the earlier stages as imo the play down there is really sub standard and really takes the skill out of the game and it becomes more a standard game of luck

i will add more rules in next few days once i get into full swing of things

i really plan on making 50k+ by end of year

you will be able to find me at the tables if ya wanna play along under kylemilne

il post updates of hands-profit(hopefully not loss)-general play-and any tourneys i enter and how i got along(the pokerstars open and any scoop events i enter wont count towards the 2.5k)

i usualy play from 3pm gmt through to 2pm gmt(obv with breaks) mon through thurs(with exclusions on trips to casino) weekend play is more limited usualy a few hours between 12 and 5 on fri and sat as i hit the bars at 6 lol,and sundays are all over the place depends how my head feels haha

hopefully see some you guys tonight

well guys i started at 11.45am gmt with 25$

i am starting out at the .02/.05 c 6 max cash games

and i have turned the 25$ now into 55.23$

i played for hours 2

the table was a very passive and tight table so agression went a long way in the first session,the general 3 x bb small ball aproach really narrowd the medium hands out

so thats me now got enough to move up to the .5/10 tables now

im going to sleep know was in a cash game for 7 hours last night and still have had no sleep but i will be doing a session from roughly 6/7 gmt tonight

my goal for today is to double up to 50$,then il stop bubble_lol.gif cuz i know il try get greedy haha

i havnt totaly worked out % for how much i should be making per day compared to amound of blinds i need and diferent amounts for the dif blind levels but will figure it out by next few days

cheers

lol. Make sure you make a thread where you think about going to vegas.


Seriously, if you're any good at poker now, start with more money. If you're a beginner, your goals are probably too high.
