My online poker tourney profit graph after 3000 games

Hello, I am Damavaco, an asian poker player.

I would like to proudly share my online poker performance so far. (The below picture includes some Korean texts used to share in the Korean forum which I am active)

Since the Pokercraft does not properly applies the tourney rake, I've made my software to see true value of my profit - Look here if you are interested. I will write another thread for the software I've developed.

- Total prize got: Near 20k USD
- Played 171k+ hands
- ITM: 435/3074 (14.1%)
- ROI: 14~15% (After applying rake)
- 4-digit winning in 4 tourneys

There were some moments that I've lost stability of my mental health(especially on 2100th~2500th part of the graph) due to too many losing. I don't consider that part as a downswing, and I am glad that I've overcame it.

For low stake tournaments I feel like exploiting bad players is very important because these people are usually source of your chips. The below picture is a good example for targetting calling station. I bet 3x pot with worse than flush but the opponent still calls it with even worse hand. There are many users like this in cheap tournaments and you have to dig it.

Recently I am more often participating in higher stakes like $15 ~ $25 tourney than before, but the bankroll swing speed still feels very fast for me. Perhaps I need some time to get used to it.

I don't think I will be a professional poker player. But I will still play poker and try to get profit in a long run, while occasionally playing out of line for fun.

In offline, I tried some abroad tournaments in Japan, Taiwan and Phillipines. I've got some medals and money from some of participations, but I concluded that I am not capable of getting profit from offline tourney. Maybe I will write another thread for this someday.

Thanks for reading this post, and have good luck on your tournament journey also.
