Turning $3,500 into $250,000 in less than ~12 months

Good luck sir!

According to your schedule, playing 35 hours / week you should be grinding NL600 with a healthy bankroll this time next month. I look forward to your update, it should keep me motivated while I play the micro stakes.

I don't know who you are, but the only chance you have to hit 250k is if you run insanely hot to start.

star's SN?

[litemyfire]

this is going to be great. GUG01, your BR now is $3500 right - and by this time next month you should be playing NL600. I am guessing your BR will have to be somewhere in the region of $12k to do this. Interested in a ultra low stakes prop bet to get started? Ill bet $100 and lay you 2:1 that you dont have a BR of $12k by the 15th of next month. let me know if interested or if you want to counter-offer something to me.

you're not going to make $800/hr at NL2k. Thats pretty much guaranteed.

[BlueBear]

Too optimistic. Learn to grind more tables at one go instead of planning to escalate the stakes quickly.

GL, man! Please update more than 1x per month as people on the internet need instant gratification. You'll be a distant memory by 11-15-07.

4 months? He's bound to succeed!

Good Luck.

I don't think the plan is reasonable, but it's good to have a plan. Just be willing to revise it every so often based on the current situation.

if you 12table for 40hr a week and are a good player 120K-160K is possible, 250k is also possible but VERY unlikely

"Background: Started playing 4 months ago, played every level all the way from 1/2 cent nl on stars up to 400nl. Played mostly full ring. Long journey, and have learned to play poker well along the way."

4 months is a long journey? Are you a fetus?

Seriously,nothing is impossible and I hope you do it but you need to have some respect for how hard it is to become good, nevermind an expert.

For now, variance is you friend.

School is a needless distraction. I hate to see so many young guns make the mistake of not dropping out.
