it sucks but I failed miserably on the GoldStar for this month. I got stuck at about 1.5K, and couldn't find the time to grind more.
That said, my internet connection seems to have finally stabilized.
Since upgrading my line to a lowly 4MB, every 3 hours or so my connection seemed to restart itself, taking a whole 5 minutes to do it. That, coupled with a few open SNGs, meant buyins flushed down the drain. Today I tried my hand at a session that started at around 6am, ended at 10AM, with only like a few secondlong hiccups, which are entirely tolerable for me.
This hopefully means that I can grind longer now with less worry of having a ton of big games open and my inet doin' its disco thing costing me a whole chunk of BIs.
And now,
Bring it on, April.
I am shooting for at least 1K tourneys total, if I get in 50 per day I can be done by the 20th and take the rest of the month off. After 1K it would depend on how I feel if I plan to play more. Obviously, 5 days on and 2 days off is better, so hopefully I will be done by the 26th or so at latest.
The aim is still at 8 tables min. for 4 hours min. per session/day. So 1K should be a little on the conservative side. @ $1+ average rake per tourney, should be a shoo in for Gold, and possibly even Platinum.
Adage of the day: if you get a bad beat and you actually care about it, it's indicative that you are playing too few tables. load more and stfu.
