I'm just curious where are you going to play, what games are you playing and from what bankroll are you starting.

GL!

good luck! i'm starting with $200 and I'm planning on making $100,000 too by the end of 2019. I'll play low stakes tournaments on Stars consisting on Badugi, 2-7 Single/Triple Draw, Limit Holdem, Razz, Stud/8, HORSE, 8 Game, 5 Card Draw, PLO plus other variations on Omaha, plus the $55 NLHE Sunday Marathon on PokerStars.

I was the chip leader at one point in the Sunday Marathon last weekend. I know I can win this tournament, because I find the higher stakes players play more cautiously and don't just donk off their chips like the lower stakes players do. So you can 3bet/4bet more with marginal holdings and get folds.

So I want to win the Sunday Marathon and then the Sunday Million to reach my $100K goal.

GOOD LUCK TO THE BOTH OF US! :)

Hello Richie,

I'll play low stakes tournaments on Stars consisting on Badugi, 2-7 Single/Triple Draw, Limit Holdem, Razz, Stud/8, HORSE, 8 Game, 5 Card Draw, PLO plus other variations on Omaha, plus the $55 NLHE Sunday Marathon on PokerStars.

Take it as an advice: If you try to beat all of them at once, you'll fail, just go for one and improve at it.
Second thing is Badugi, 2-7 Single/Triple Draw, Limit Holdem, Razz, Stud/8, HORSE, 8 Game, 5 Card Draw, are pretty dead games, yes, they're fun, but still hard to get to 100k in a year if you go with them.
Third thing is $55 NLHE Sunday Marathon on PokerStars. I mean, yes maybe you could be extremely lucky and maybe get in the bubble, but you'll most likely be loosing money, I'd recommend you to follow a bankroll management.
Good luck at the tables!

hey buddy thanks for your reply!

I was the chip leader after 4 hours of the $55 Sunday Marathon last weekend, and I got 76th place, so I know I have the game to win it.

Secondly, I think I will still play all the games on Stars. I'm only very weak at Badugi and even then I read a strategy article on it on this website last night.

Thirdly, I know all the money is in NLHE. That is true. I'm planning on winning the Sunday Marathon and then Sunday Million this year. That will get me to $100K. I'm just using the other mixed game tournaments to gain experience, so when I eventually do go to the WSOP, take part in SCOOP and WCOOP, I will have a good chance in all the tournaments.

Lastly, I just thought i'd say that there is no point being pessimistic when it comes to poker. Optimism is key!

Thanks for reading - even though this is someone else's thread :)
