Re: 1k Prop bet help...
I think the problem he mentions is the limited number of buy-ins so getting to the table with a smaller stack should be possible. What OP doesn't mention is his experience playing poker up to now. He has to be able to beat that level. but given the basic advice here it should be beatable...
(If you can rebuy your initial 20$ you can start with 100BB i wouldn't advise 5$ buy-in if you aren't experienced. It's tougher to play, even at this level (even though I've never played "down there") |

Re: 1k Prop bet help...
Keep the list updated, this should be fun. Here's a thread from Jan. '07 where Nate turns $5 into $1,000 in 7 days. A lot different than your situation but a great read nonetheless.

Re: 1k Prop bet help...
Well I wasn't going to update this until I got to 5k hands on the first level, only started this a few days ago and because I work full time I havent been able to play much but made a great start. As it has been bumped with some new advice ill post my first few screenies.
I know I have played nealry 2k hands at 2c/5c but that was last weekend before I started this and he said it could count towards it aslong as I didnt play anymore until I have done my 10k hands at 1c/2c. I happily agreed as this has made my bankroll double to start with. Im still only buying in with $2 though as I know I can beat this level now so just trying to rack in the hands as quickly as I can without losing focus. As Germanguy said I didnt say my previous expericane with poker, I have been playing offline now for about 4 - 5 years and have been a consistant winner, nothing much and only down the local pub but my results were consistant. About 12 months ago when I turned 18 I deposited on ladbrokes, ran it up a bit then blew it at the higher levels. done this for about the next 6 months on different sites then found 2+2. had a break online for about a month and focused on reading these baords and Harrington 1,2 + 3. Came back online and after reading posts on here brought PokerTrracker/PAHud and all the other bits and bobs. Signed up with PS about 3 months ago (I think)and deposited my first $50, all I have been doing is playing SNG's which sharkscope says im around $350 up and low limit cash games. I used to get to big for my boots and play $1/$2 limit but I soon realised if I grind at the lower limts I can eventually play these with hard work. I think thats about it. Any advice on my play so far, I know its a very small sample but is anything looking bad at these limits? Thanks |

Re: 1k Prop bet help...
Excellent progress!
I'd like someone more advanced to back me up on this, but I'd say blind steal more. |

Attempting to steal too much can turn into a huge leak at those levels cause you'll find nobody really folds preflop. Ever. And then- whoops, you have 6 J offsuit in a 4-way pot. Not fun. |
