I think this is an interesting experiment and something many poor college kids, like myself, can relate with.
Background: Have been playing poker for almost two years but first deposited $100 in stars last spring. I didn't really know what i was doing or what limits or tournaments to play, lost roll within two weeks. So i learned. I lurked here, read books and made my return. This time i deposited $20 and built that up to about $900, mainly through two large cashes, but then tilted it all away in high limit cash games within a period of 24 hours. I even squandered my FPP's. This brings me to about a week ago, with a bankroll of o, but confident that i am an above average player. So i hit the freerolls. 1st freeroll: 5400 entrants, top 27 gain entry to a tourny with a $1000 prize pool. 113th place, great finish but worth nothing. 2nd freeroll: 4500 entrants, same setup, i finish in exactly 27th and qualify for tournament. 1st tournament where i can actually win money: 1200 horses, $1000 pool. I finish in 64th netting myself an astounding $2.00. .01/.02 nl cash game: Nut peddle my $2.00 up to $5.50. (hopefully the last time i will put the entirety of my enormous roll into play at once) So far: 12 hours of work, net gain of $5.50, but hey, at least i'm back. Plan from here: play 5 stars $1 tourneys and see if the odyssey can continue. Don't really know why i posted this but thought it was a pretty fun story. |
