10,000th post- My Mission: A JIHAD on SSNL opponents
 

MISSION STATEMENT:
I will be making over $1,000 per day at fullstack SSNL by the end of February

OK. First off, the money isn't that important to me. It's a way of keeping score and a challenging goal IMO.

second, my poker background is probably relevant. I've been a professional gambler for about 2 1/2 years now. I live pretty comfortably. Gambling is somewhat entertaining, but far from my dream job as I contribute nothing to society and am somewhat embarrassed when people ask me what I do for a living. Most of this gambling has been poker. Started in limit holdem. Done short-handed limit, o8 limit, pot-limit omaha, etc. Been playing no-limit pretty much exclusively since March. I'm about 6PTBB/100 winner at 100NL fullstack over a decent sample, but only a marginal winner over an insignificant sample at fullstack 200NL. I haven't played poker since September to be brutally honest. Only a few thousand hands here and there. I specialized in college football betting and was spending 50 to 60 hours per week on NCAAF stuff. Most of my no-limit past has been shortstacking, set-mining, etc. Basically, idiot strategies to lock in a tiny profit through crazy amounts of multi-tabling while I watch tv or whatnot. It's put me in a decent financial position, but is lacking a thrill factor and isn't 'beating' opponents.

I'm now going to start back at 25NL, probably 4 tables at a time, and build my game back up to multi-tabling pwnage at 200NL (8+ tables). I will become a machine. I plan to single table for at least an hour a day to get deep learning. The rest of the day will be automagical pilot multi-tabling based on basic concepts.

I feel the games are soft enough now and I need to tap the goldmine before it disappears. I saw what happened to limit games and see the precursors at no-limit.

Time to get the gold now.


I will be providing constant updates whether you all are interested or not.

With football season done, you can expect me to be back in this forum quite a bit....beware.

If I meet my goal, I promise to be the biggest donk at the SSNL boondoggle come WSOP ME time. Yes, I know I was the biggest donk last time anyway.

Prepare to witness my pwnage.

I am so glad that you aren't going to be a shortstack monkey anymore. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: 10,000th post- My Mission: A JIHAD on SSNL opponents
 

i think you are vastly overrating what you can learn from single tabling. Just 2-3 table, more situations and stuff, but you can still focus goot.

Why don't you go find your dream job and keep sports betting and poker as a nice side income?

I don't want to turn this into a poker doom thread (since there's already plenty of those in the zoo, legislation, SSHE, BBV, BBV, etc. forums), but to what precursors are you referring?

You're my new fav player, MT2R. Keep us updated!

Re: 10,000th post- My Mission: A JIHAD on SSNL opponents
 

Wow. Just read the whole OOT thread by the OP. Very good read sir. I'm sorry that stuff happened but I'm glad you came out of it OK.

When I first became a mod, this was my first custom title I gave out. He used to have iirc just a Pujols avatar when the whole Bonds thing was hot. But now, it has a level 2 meaning.

Re: 10,000th post- My Mission: A JIHAD on SSNL opponents
 

wow, another 'challenge' thread that'll never be accomplished!

EDIT: At the request of a resident old man here in SSNL, I do wish you the best of luck with this. However, the majority of challenge threads that start like this end up neglected 3 days later never to be bumped or returned to. If you're serious about this then by all means use us to the best of your ability and make this a reality. It certainly is possible. Good luck and we'll see you around.

it's an awesome idea and one I got from playing live poker. It's amazing how in the heads of the other players you can be.

yeah.....the world can relax
acutally, it was mainly OnGame's fault for having a 10BB min buy-in. It created a nice opportunity to double up twice. Plus, one could have multiple accounts across the network. Their anti-ratholing 2 hour wait was easily circumvented by just logging on to the table under a different account. I had about 9 accounts across the network and would be on 12 to 15 tables at a time. I made playing that site a nightmare.

both true....I think single-tabling will only be for an hour at 100NL and up


I've been playing 25NL for a session now and it's pretty bad level of play. Even my unsharp mind and minimal talent is pwning pretty hard. I was doing 4 tables, but quickly went to 8 as the 25NL is a jopke.
