Back From Busto (How I Quit My Job and Became A Pro - Pt 1)

UnblinkingEye · #1 08-31-2007, 01:15 AM

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.

That must be it.
Honestly I have no idea how tournaments are converted but pretty sure it would say t$ and tournament for full tilt not positive
