For the last 2 days I was on a roller coaster. One session I finish 40$ profit , the other session i finish even money or less.

But now I'm up 35$ on full tilt and 125$ on partypoker. I still have 2 bonuses on fulltilt + rakeback so I expect to release 40$ a week + the 100$ biggest bonus in one, one and a half weeks. also i have a bonus on partypoker.

By September 1 I expect to have 1000$ combined. I will cashout soon from party and move it to full tilt since I get rakeback there.

Bankrolls

FULL TILT : 285$
PARTY POKER : 175$

Party poker is so much easier on the 3$ SnG's, you always get paid when you have AA KK QQ AK ♦.

Good job buddy....keep up the hard work and look forward to more posts

Told you AA KK QQ gets the money everytime on PartyPoker. I've never seen so many donks in my life. Maybe the structure is so unusual for them. And most of them are European players.

Flop: ($4735) 6 :heart:, 3 :spade:, T (3 players)

Turn: ($4735) 4 (3 players)

River: ($4735) 9 (3 players)

Final Pot: $4735.
Results follow:

BU shows high card king(K 8 :diamond:).

Hero wins with a pair of aces(A A :club:).

GOAL UPDATES!!!

With an average of 50 SnG's per day I realize I need much more to reach my final Goal. Even tho my ROI is at 20% now and I have great bonuses and rakeback deal. So I decided to slightly change one goal into a few smaller goals.

1. Clear the 100$ biggest bonus from FullTilt in one week

2. Clear the 50$ bonus from PartyPoker and reach a BR of 250$ by august 10 (I'm at 160 now)

3. Move the BR from party to fulltilt

4. Clear the 250$ bonus on FullTilt by September 1st

5. In the meanwhile reach Gold or even platinum status at PS.

6. Reach 2500$ by September 15

7. After all the bonuses sre cleared and after i move the BR from Party, generate a rake of 600 - 750 $ per month.

8. AND THE FINALE - REACH THE 10,000$ BR by December 1st.

Also I'm allowed to party and clubbing and getting wasted during the challenge. 2nd year of college is starting soon ♦

Also 3 new songs in my playlist that i love. ♦

Sean Paul - so fine
Lady Gaga - paparazzi
Santogold - you will find a way

Gotta love them

July 31 Bankrolls:

FullTilt - 306 $
PartyPoker - 165 $

Bonuses: FullTilt: - 220 $ still to be cleared - 10% of the 100$ biggest bonus cleared

PartyPoker: - 20% of the 50$ is cleared.

Somebody i know used to say very often " I'm sick ant tired of this bullshit!!! "

Well, today I'm sick and tired of the bs I got in my evening session at fulltilt. Out from a MTT in 70 with 54 paid. I had KK against A7. I was about 6th in chips and a wiseguy with a bigger stack thought he could throw me of a 9 3 3 flop by pushing. he hit the miracle on the river and I was out.

Then, on a 2 table SnG, 6 ppl left, i was 3rd but second and chipleader had a lot more than me. so i'm dealt my QQ on BU and I run into AA from the shortstack. right after I have JJ and the same guy called me with AT and hit ( wow so fucking surprising).

Also I had no chance winning with my at least 60% today and my BR dropped 50$.

It was my first weekend at FullTilt. I didn't think I could run that bad with those donks.

but I'm even money, i have a nice rakeback and still the bonuses to clear. So back at the tables.

right now i'm thinking: Please don't tilt Please don't tilt Please don't tilt Please don't tilt

AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF THESE HANDS. GN

Today i started more seriously than ever. I was at the highest concentration mode. If I lost another 8 in a row I would have to move down a limit.

So I got started and after a shortwhile things seamed to be bad for me when i pushed on the bubble with QQ against AA, but I sucked out on the river ♦.
On another table, 5 people left, I'm dealt AK of hearts on the BU with a push from the shortstack from CO, I repush obviously but the chipleader called also and I'm against 99 and AA, but I make my flush.

I grinded my way back to a 10$ profit + i need just 15 points to receive another 20$ from the bonus.

Anyway, here is the best hand of the day. My first ROYAL FLUSH ♠_cool:

plane886 wins 19,200 chips from the main pot with a full house, Aces full of Jacks.

I hate it when i turn the monster and he redraws with his 2 outer.

Anyway, i think i'm gonna start doing some reading on NL SSS and BSS because PartyPoker has the 1 - 3 $ SnG's on a too fast blind limit and I don't really like what has happened until now. My roll is at 140$ there and i think i'm either changing to SSS or BSS. Still thinking

Hardest day in my SnG career was today. Nothing came for me and I was running into AA or KK with very good hands.

I also started the day with a mistake with JJ ,which I could have folded easily, but I went broke with them.

On top of that, I lost my internet connection in the late phases and when I reconnected with my other provider I was blinded out of 3 of them.

TOP 3 HANDS. WHAT DO YOU THINK ?
I must say that in the JJ hand I was against a donk and a multitabler whom I had reads that he is a though player. Still I went broke with JJ. Worst play since I started the challenge.

Word of wisdom

Did you know that you need a T or a 5 to make a straight, if you hold T5 in your hand, the only straight you can't make is a 9 high straight.

Also TJ is the hand that gives you the nuts most of the times. It's proved i guess since i found this statement on a poker site.

Today I played a few DoN's and i made a 5$ profit. I won't play cash games since I need to do a lot of reading, but I'll play DoNs and MTTs until i make 250$. Right now I'm at 180$.

I'll play later cause I don't feel like playing today that much, also I have Entourage Season 6 which started, and also True Blood season 2. I love these series. You should definitely watch ENTOURAGE, you'll love it i guarantee.

Hand of the day. 4 August:

I'm BB. SB is the shortstack and raises first in. I decide to call and push on whatever flop. but...

thought this was a ring game- you had me creaming over the number of noobs at these stakes!

First graph. About 220 games

I reached the 500$ roll.

PartyPoker - 203 $
FullTilt - 318$

I hope I will not get any variation for at least a month so I can build my bankroll to a not so dangerous line. And I'm cashing out at Party to move it to FullTilt.
