Has anyone gone THE DISTANCE?.

A good LHE poker player can, on average, double his BR every 10,000 hands or so. Provided he/she finds games that he can beat at +3 BB/100 + rakeback. Let's give the player a full month to double his BR.

THE DISTANCE:

Starting with $500 or less, go from Party 1-2 to Party 30-60 in 5 months or less, and play there for the rest of the year for a total yearly income of $500,000 or more in 250,000 Hands or less.

The numbers say this is actually very possible in theory. Has anyone that you know of, gone THE DISTANCE?.

No.

No but that sounds pretty [censored] sweet.

i would say that doubling you BR every 10k hands is very optimistic.

I've went from a .50/1.00 bankroll to a $5/10 bankroll in less than 3 months. However, I don't think that's a great feat. If you add in the bad beat jackpots, I actually did go from a .50/1 to a 30/60 bankroll. The jackpot money was cashed out though to pay off loans.

I think some of your assumptions are incorrect. A player will find it easy to crush 1/2 2/4 etc for 3/bb, but shifting to 15/30 etc will be tough...i dont think allowing for variance this can be done without being a total lucksack.

That's 1/4 of a way there without the JP... You did well. The stretch from 5-10 to 30-60 looks harder.

That's why I allowed a full month to double, easy to put in way more than 10,000 hands in 1 month.

Its easy. I made about 2 million dollars on Bodog Poker last year starting in Jan.

the only person that made 2 million at Bodog last year was the owner
