This is weak and sad compared to most of you, but it's a milestone fo sorts for me. Last night I doubled my initial $250 deposit to $519 through a combination of Bonus whoring and playing just slightly better than break-even poker Wink Only took me 3 months... baby steps, right?


Took me 3-4 months to make my first $500. In the 5 months since then I've made $16.5k. Welcome to the fast lane bro.

I've turned my initial $60 into $450 over a month and 3 weeks. The first three weeks were a very bumpy road as I had to learn the game (oh a flush is HIGHER than a straight?!) AND cope with the horrible mental fits that come with poker at the same time. (those have cost me SO MUCH in the past it's uncanny)

Cutting down on 'playing when I suck' is crucial and I'm finally more able to pick up the signs within myself when I can play a normal game and when I can't. Like now, I really wanna play, but I *know* I'm gonna suck so I have to wait until I feel I'm up for it.

I need to start Bonus whoring *badly* though.. but damn I can't seem to be able to get my money into neteller Sad. Maybe I'm better off just getting a credit card?

Oh and I can't wait for the fast lane Very Happy That would be so cool and welcome, although I'm not getting my hopes up (honestly) for it to happen any time soon. I suck too much still.

Yes.

Why can't you withdraw to Neteller?

Do they cost much? They seem rather necessary if you want to get the most value from PT while you are playing.

Well, they gave me a bank account number and a SWIFT number from a London bank. The swift number means that the bank is part of a new european ruling that dictates that you can make international money transfers with national fees. Standard international fees are huge. But I need an IBAN number (the standardized international format of their bank account number) not the normal bank account number, otherwise I have to pay international fees. So I emailed their support to ask for the IBAN number so I could make the deposit through internet banking, but they kept replying that they couldn't help me and that I needed to go to my bank.

So I went to my bank, and they said the same thing: without the IBAN-number, I have to pay international fees. (I wanted to deposit €100 and the fees are atleast €15 and probably more, which is stupid)

Nah that one was a joke. About 90% 0f my other 1100 posts are mature and helpful though. Sorry jack!

To make it up to you, I wen't through the same process when trying to put money in for the first time. Finally I got through to support and they gave me an IBAN so that my bank wire was free. Even though it never arrived in my Neteller. Eventually Neteller support got so sick of me emailing and ringing them they basically just credited me with €20 for free.

Perseverance is the key!

Hm seems neteller gives a lot of problems? Maybe I should get a credit card, it costs €20 a year. Or I could just email/call neteller again ofcourse.

But I'm not too motivated anymore to pursue it atm, since I've hit a downswing. Lost $70 since my last update here. The cards have not been kind to me, but it's more bad play than bad cards. Exams are coming up too, the most stressful period of the year for me. I'm also a lot more pressed for time to play than before.

WP dude. I am going to play one or two of these tonight and DAMN I need to FT a decent tourney - my poker life feels fraudulent without an MTT pedigree.

(it was like 7 months ago but my 5th in a 455-man $5.50 MTT on PokerRoom is the nearest I can get to having anything worth posting on this thread)

Good job Hartlin, congrats! I really want to take up MTTs too, but now isn't the time for me. I've gotten 6max ring down for the most part, but my MTT skills are too shaky still.

You're focussing mostly on tourneys btw?

Almost doubled my roll today in my first final table appearance.

PokerStars Tournament #24673318, No Limit Hold'em
Buy-In: $5.00/$0.50
928 players
Total Prize Pool: $4640.00

Dear ARK4748,

You finished the tournament in 5th place.
A $227.37 award has been credited to your Real Money account.

The only thing that hurt was the hand that essentially knocked me out. My AQ vs KK, Ace on the flop, K on the turn. What you gonna do, still had a great time, but damn these things are long!

I just registered here at FTR. So hi everybody. Smile

Other than that, in the three or so weeks I've been playing, I've managed to move up in rankings on the freeroll MTTs I enter. First I got knocked out after two hands (3000something), then 720th out of 5k, tonight 360th out of 3700. Sucks to not be ITM, but it does feel like im getting better, even though I stupidly went all in with ATo after the flop. D'oh.

Now to keep my head from getting too big. Razz

Damn nice, I've had one straight flush so far, never the royal though. And I think it'd be hard to get paid off with the royal flush.

My accomplishment is fairly minor, but I'm happy with it:
  • Added $50 to my 'Stars account on Friday of last week (first $ added ever).
  • Cleared the Bonus on Thursday
  • Withdrew the original $50
  • ...and have a bit over $50 left.
Now to play more SnGs (where I seem to do the best) when I'm both not tired and have time to play without distraction.

Oh: I tend to drink whatever's available when playing. I've learned that drinking a gallon of water at a sitting does not increase one's play if you won't sit out a hand or two and instead wait for a break to go pee. Sad

I made $2 by finishing in 133rd place out of 5724 entrants in a $1000 freeroll on Royal Vegas!

Yahoo! I went way farther than I expected, only to get beaten by an A on the turn beating out my pocket 4s.

But I won something! First time ever!

Due to real life stuff screwing with me, I had to cash out yet again (did so yesterday). It is becoming annoying that this is hampering my poker development, but then again, if I didn't have this poker money, I'd be in a lot of trouble lol. So I cashed down to $160. That meant.. goodbye 20NL Sad. So I had to grind it out at 10NL again, til I get back to $360, my personal BR requirement for 20NL. At first I had some small adjustment problems.. the lagg style that works at 20NL really isn't all that good at 10NL, but after a few hundreds hands I got back into how to play 10NL. And you know.. I really love 10NL. Lol. Dunno why. It's so relaxingly easy. But I do want to go back to 20NL ofcourse, as I want to move higher. $95 to go or something. I guess it's nice to know I'll always have good ol' 10NL to fall back on or something Very Happy

Heh, you should post it anyway. Personal victories are what it's all about. I run at 30-40BB/100 not too rarely. But not always, sigh. After the 7 hours which netted me the previous results, I played 4 more hours and hit an incredible dry of cards where simply NOTHING ever went right. You know, you rarely get a hand at all.. fold fold fold.. and then when you do get a hand, either everyone fold or mr. nit just flopped a monster. At the end of this 4 hour horror, I tilted off a buy-in, then quit.


Sad

I hope I'll have better luck today! Oh and if you are wondering what this is doing in the "winning circle".. it's a personal victory of sorts that I ran break-even instead of donking off a ton of buy-ins on such a bad run.

Considering I just moved up to 25NL, this did a lot of good to my BR Very Happy. So I guess I'll be jumping straight to 100NL now (or I might consider playing at least 10k hands at 25 and 50 first;) ).

On a more serious note, this was the catalyst I needed to justify dedicating this summer to really study and play poker, as opposed to taking my usual summer job.

Ok, so after cashing out $200 on saturday, I had to cash out $130 again yesterday. This brought my roll down to $130. Really sucks, but I had to, you know. Started today pretty sucky.. hit some harder tables, ran into KK vs AA, my "tilt situation" which indeed tilted me for a while (goodbye couple of buy-ins), but after these first 500 rough hands, it picked up over the next 500:



So the roll is moving up again, $212 now. Strange thing is though, I don't feel satisfied anymore. Not compared to the previous good run, where I was all happy about it. Hitting those harder tables earlier made me realize I actually suck at poker. You don't learn to play poker at 10NL. In fact, you unlearn it more than anything! When I run into aggressive players - rare at the lower limits ofcourse - it's suddenly a ton harder for me. That's why I suddenly just wanted to move up to 50NL asap. Ofcourse, not without the roll for it ($1k). I probably won't have to cash out for a couple weeks, so that's atleast comforting. But it's such a long way to go still.. sigh.. (I also read some of bdawg's posts in the shorthanded forum and they made me feel like I suck even more, for some reason)

Thank you for your patronage of PokerStars as we count down the exciting

Considering I just moved up to 25NL, this did a lot of good to my BR Very Happy. So I guess I'll be jumping straight to 100NL now (or I might consider playing at least 10k hands at 25 and 50 first;) ).

On a more serious note, this was the catalyst I needed to justify dedicating this summer to really study and play poker, as opposed to taking my usual summer job.



ya nice! come play 100 6max on party. Smile

I finally bit the bullet.

I am ordering DSL tonight - and I just bought a mic so I should be set for vent when I finally have DSL installed.

Sry for hogging this thread lol.. but anyway..

So when I got the BR to $230, I got bored with 10NL. Like I said before, I feel it's numbing there. So yesterday I moved to 20NL. First 800 hands I kinda played uncomfortable and scared. Made like $20. Today (which started some 4 hours ago) it already went better, both in mentality (being relaxed and playing my game of raising crap etc) and results:



I've set my goal at $800, then it's time to move up to 50NL. $410 to go..

(Ok I really should make a blog thingie so I can stop posting this here.. is it possible to make one on this site? I saw a few people had one connected to their name. If so, can someone give me a link? Thx)
