Back From Busto (How I Quit My Job and Became A Pro - Pt 1)
Here's the deal BBV4Life. Got into a major fight with the boss tonight (and a stripper), causing me to go on life tilt and quit my job.
I have enough money saved to pay all my bills for three months, and I also have a barely above busto $28 in my FTP account. Here's the play. 28 Ferguson tournies in 28 days, attempting to build a big enough bankroll to play cash games. I've also made a deposit of $52, that I intend to use to buy into 2 $24+$2 180's. No cash games until I'm properly rolled for it. My goal is to turn $80 into at least $3000 in 30 days, without playing completely at the edge of my roll. I'm going for it. Its my shot. Beat: Lost my job Brag: A girl walked out with me, Jerry McGuire style Variance: Gonna go pro or busto. BTW, I am a little bit drunk, so this idea may not still be good in the morning. I'll be playing in the Ferguson. IM me if you want. AIM: UnblinkingPoker ~Mike |

Here's the play. 28 Ferguson tournies in 28 days, attempting to build a big enough bankroll to play cash games. I've also made a deposit of $52, that I intend to use to buy into 2 $24+$2 180's.

I am now at $32.15, and have decided to amend my method to allow me to play only limit games as well as tournaments. I am giving the SnG's some consideration, and may give that a try. For those of you keeping score, I'm $4 in the green. My schedule for the evening? My cousin is having her 16th birthday party, so I've got to go see her, I will probably begin playing around 8 EST. I will post here for sweat purposes what tables I will be at. As always, I can be found at the Ferguson at 130EST. ~Mike |
