$75 to 1k in 12 days

Plan is turn $75 into 1k in 12 days.

And how do you seriously plan on doing that?

Going to start short stacked at 2nl then add some sngs at about $25 and take things from there

glad to see you're setting more realistic goals.

plz to be prop betting

Please know I wish you luck.......

but.......

$10 starting.....risking 80%.... Slevin, this is BRM at it's finest?????????

what happened to the last two "1000 SNG's" OPs . it all went very quiet after you posted them?.

Having said that , I would think that if Stacks or Spenda had the time and/or inclination that they would probably be able to give it a good shot.

at least ur getting the recognition u want so bad

Nothing never started them been working on my game with a heavy emphasis on 6max.

going to take a break been a long day apart from poker today, so far so good.

+ $6.80

Lolz. Hataz gotta hate.

Well, at least we went from 'Let's deposit 1k and play professional pokerz' to 'let's deposit the minimum and gambool.
It's an improvement in a way.

lol i haz to watch this.

Guys poker isn't' always about playing to be a pro or earning an income. For lots of people it is a form of entertainment or recreation. If you can't have fun playing poker why do it? Don't hate cause he's having fun by doing something you wouldn't.

GL slevin have a blast!

joking aside .
could this be done by
10 tabling 2NL buying in for $1 until BR=30
10 table 5NL buying in for 2$ until BR =100
10 table 10NL buying in for $5 until BR=200
then 25NL to the end

hyper aggressive but I guess as long as as the early bits survive it could be done

I would really like someone to lay odds on this because I want to bet that this gets done

Day 1: Starting BR: $10

best of luck!

I made $10 into 1k in 6 months. I guess you just don't have that kind of time.

It won't happen, but there's no way to verify. Slevin is silly.

shouldn't be too hard to verify as I'm playing on stars and all hh's are being saved

Slight change in goal post here guys. I told my coach what I was doing and he told me no way he wasn't happy, he's happy for me to try a challenge but wouldn't endorse me playing in 'donkaments' so starting br is $75 and I'm starting at 5nl, same target 1k in 12 days. haven't played yet today so br was still +$6 odd, just going to treat this as a new project and start from here.

In order for you to accomplish this you will have to 10 table for ~13 hours a day and run/play better than it is possible for you to do. Because of this I suggest you take the same approach as a slot machine player. It is much better to take one $100 pull of a slot machine than taking 100 $1 pulls. This is because over the larger sample size odds play more of a role and luck plays less of one. So you should take your $75 and shortstack 200nl to victory.

Actually no I don't I'm actually a decent player now =)

well we'll see i guess... +$34.95

taking a break now then resuming

it doesn't matter how good you are, it matters how lucky you are if you're not using proper BR management

Seriously with this comment in this thread?

IOPQ I'm using an aggressive br strategy, it's still br management. There is a luck factor obv but it's more skill than luck.

Dont understand the 'seriously with this comment in this thread' post imo =/

So you're moving back down when you lose some?

yeah i'll be taking a 15bi shot at 10nl when i hit 150, anytime i hit 10bi's for a level I drop down

hmm this should be interesting now that we've been notified of this stop loss.

and that you now have 12 days

took a bit of a bashing recently br currently $87.63

I'm kinda bored and am thinking of doing a $50-->$1k challenge, I figure w/ minimal variance it would take me ~5 days using proper BR management

why not just play your normal games

will be good to have a bit of friendly competition =)

TOO EASY DRILL SERGEANT

betting that flop, not so good slevinator

Don't tell him what to do Spenda. He's "Actually.... a decent player now =)".

Also.. I would think most decent players would be a winner at poker.

Good luck either way. The goal isn't impossible. However, it does fall into the category of another one of your goals, which as we all know have failed in the past. And it also makes you look as if you haven't learned much of anything about poker since you've been here, since you are using a relatively poor BR management system (or were before your coach told you not to), and you also still seem to have little to no understanding of how variance could come into play with this goal.

meh i've learnt tons about poker the last couple of weeks - also it's quite flawed logic tbh mr stax. If I've learnt more than I did before my past failings are obvioulsy pretty inconsequential.

interesting about the hand cheers spenda i'll review that hand a little later

I tend to bet like that to balance my range if I only bet when I'm strong I think it makes for a very exploitable play, but you I'll definately check it out seen as you've pointed it out.

Next session about to begin =)

GOGOGO

Thanks spenda i'll check that out !

You bet bottom pair in four way pots for balance at 5NL?

WHY HAS NO ONE TOLD ME THIS SECRET TO CRUSHING THE MICROS!?!?!??!?!?!

LOL I was hoping no one had gotten to this yet.

So you going to try this too Spenda?

IT'LL NEVER WOOOOORK
IT'LL NEVER WOOOOORK
IT'LL NEVER WOOOOORK

nah seriously slevin, if you want to do well at poker you need to get a decent bankroll going and grind like the rest of the world.. gimmicky challenges are maybe good for a laugh or an idiot hobbyist but they only delay and hinder a real poker student's development...

This is a challenge i have a great coach i don't need advice but ty, i'm doing this because i want to do it, also because i like the idea of making 1k in 12 days =)

Anybody know slevins stars SN?

i'm not playing on stars, it's not exactly hard to find it's all over my previous threads. lkyslev1n imo

3rd session finished after a bit of a rocky start came around nicely

br: $118

Hmm...

Are you paying the coach in books?

You said you were playing on stars at first, and now youre not? You also started with $10, now its $75... Things seem to be going swimmingly imo.

nice powers of observation there

What if spenda makes 1k in 12 days without ever being -75 net?

I'm not -75, I haven't been negative once since I started this thread =)

I love this. Great entertainment!

Best of luck to you as always Slevin. If you don't succeed, at least have some fun!

ty sir

I know I mean would it be the same accomplishment, disregarding relative skill levels, if spenda won 1k in the next 12 days without ever being -75 over that period even though he didn't actually start with only $75.

I guess if he's playing higher stakes than 5nl to start it'd be easier but 1k ftw imo - however you accomplish it in 12 days! =)

Another session about even, I'll tell you one good thing about this type of challenge it forces you to really concentrate on making the right moves, losing 2 or 3 buy ins could be the unravelling of the whole thing if it cascades.

I was 4 buy ins down at one point during the session but managed to pull it back together and finished even.

Going to chill for a bit before I start the last session of the day

Current br: $115

How many hands have you played to take 75 up to 115?

$75 into $1000? Sounds like a job for blackjack.

Decided against last session so am going to call it a day now as I felt bit tired and have a fresh start tommorow, so end day 1 summary:

Br: +$45
Hands played: 3900

Just need to make sure I get some momemtum in one of the early sessions tomorrow and should be a good day I think I spent last two sessions playing catch up today after losing some buy ins early or midway though!

<3

you can do it!

4k hands in one day? How many tables...
