100-500 PLO journey + crypto investing

100-500 PLO journey + crypto investing

Hello, everyone!

I've had a few threads around 5 years ago at this blogs and goals forum, but everyone of those either ended up me busting my roll or just running out of motivation to continue updating it.
Back then I was a 20 year old kid, done with high school and not really having any goals in life other then being a semi-serious athlete in sports.

Fast forward 5 years, and I'm done with a bachelor in Economics and done with the first semester of a Master so 1,5 years left of that one. I'm still active and competing in sports. When Covid broke out here in Norway, I had a small amount of money left over that was going to be used for competitions which got cancelled. I used this to deposit it to poker which I had played on and off since these last threads here. The last 18 months went really well, as my first and only 100$ deposit to partypoker have now grown to just over 9k$ and 8k in crypto-currency where 80% of the crypto investment came from my poker account. On total i think I have won around 15k$ on poker since Covid came.

I think over the last 5 years I have grown alot. Not that going to university is a huge achievement or something but for my part it gives me more to spend my time on, as one of my biggest downfalls in my earlier years in poker is the fact that the only thing I did was to train 1 or max 2 times a day, for a total of 3 hours and then having the rest of the day to play poker. This lead to me playing poker when I was not really motivating or feeling it, but playing because I had nothing to do. Now I have a girlfriend, who I live together with and also study.

I don't really have a specific goal with this thread, atleast not any monetary goal. I have this kind of wet dream of making enough money of poker and crypto to be able to use my education on starting something myself, instead of being an employee. But other then that I want to use this thread to make myself more accountable, and share the ups and down aswell as getting feedback on everything.

Myself by numbers:
Age: 25
Poker roll: $ 9100
Crypto portfolio: $ 8100
Stocks and index funds: $ 2000
Other things: $ 2200
Debt: $0

So my net worth is about $21 500 atm.
I'm quite pleased when looking back about 2 years, when I was just living on the money that norwegians get for studying, which is around 1k$ a month.

I will be playing mainly 100 and 200 plo, where I've played for the last 3 months or so. Will shottake some 500 plo when the games are soft. I'm playing on betonline, some on the euro sites aswell, but 95% on betonline as thats where I find the softest games by a huge margin.
Will try to give an update everyday of hands etc, with maybe a weekly update of numbers if that sound interesting?
