andymc1Just a quick update. This challenge is not over. I'm biding my time at the moment, recuperating. Feasting off all the putrid life of the swamp like Lestat while my ego slowly regenerates. I have been playing cash very sparingly and have made a couple of buy ins back from that and from freerolls. I will post a bankroll update soon. Plan to start playing regular sessions at 10nl again soon in the evenings.
andymc1Hi all. Thought I would start recording my progress as I attempt to grind a roll from 2nl to 200nl and even further if possible. I'm hoping having this thread to look back on an also some accountability will help me stay on the grind and achieve my goals.
A bit about me:
41 years old
I'm a single dad
Born and living up north in the UK
Been playing poker on and off since 2005
The highest I ever played was 50nl back around 2016
I started getting back into poker a couple of months ago after almost a full 8 year cold turkey, starting with $47 that was left in my stars account from 8 years ago.
I plan to play at least 1000 hands per day split up into 2 sessions, morning and evening. 2.5 hours in the morning, and whatever I can manage in evening. I will be playing regular tables on stars. I will move up to the next stake when I have 30BI and move down if I drop below 20BI.
BR needed to move up:
5nl: $150
10nl: $300
25nl: $750
50nl: $1500
100nl: $3000
200nl: $6000
I have already grinded enough at 2nl to move up.
Here's the graph and results for 2nl:
Then I moved up to the dizzying heights of 5nl, punted off about 6 stacks as is customary until I got dialed in and adjusted. I find it plays very different to 2nl. Bluffcatching in big pots seems to be much less profitable and people generally fold a lot more postflop. You could say they respect your raises even 😀
5nl Graph and results:
I'll probably post daily results but may change it to weekly and I'll post a full graph every week of the whole challenge.
Current BR: $127.64
