Operation Crumpet

OK, I guess now it's time to start one of my own targets (it's only taken me a month to be bothered!).

My goal is:

Bankroll of $200 in PokerStars by New Year

I'm currently at $92.25 and I'm mainly playing .05/.10 NL.

I'll do an update on this topic like every two days or something, and I'll put something in my sig aswell.

27/11/04 - End of Today's Play

Bankroll - $91.45

Here's how I'm 80 cents down on the day. Being an upholding FTR citizen, I entered the gauntlet event today, and of course did not make it into the money.

So now $11, I played .05/.10 NL for the rest of the day to get it back up. And I swear, I must've played about 10 different tables in 2 hours. All the tables I joined broke up eventually. So tiny bit by tiny bit, I got the BR back over $90.

33 days to go.

Mo' like operation Not Sticky!

Loser...

Can't you safely play higher stakes with a 90 dollar bankroll?

You are so mean rilla, have a heart. If he wants to play at that level let him! He wont make any money but we can humor him until he finds out otherwise Laughing

I asked him and he says he doesnt know what he wants to do.... Me being the open minded guy I am I am going to suggest the limit game for ya. Its easy to track your play and theres less risk involved than NL. Plus, you know, only cool people play Limit. Wink

Oh, I thought he was playing .05/.10 Limit. Which would be silly. Dwarfy, don't let the MAN tell you what you can or cannot bet on any given street! You're your own dwarf, be free!

And since you're *obviously* going to stick with no limit, I suppose that limit would do you nicely.

Give 'em hell.

I fiddled with limit for about a month, but to be honest, I really didn't like the game.

I find myself making better decisions and making more money in no limit.

And I don't want to move up to .10/.25 NL yet because in that stakes I could easily lose a quarter of my bankroll in one session. I'll move up once I'm at $200.

I think .05/.10 NL ($10 buy-in) is perfect for Dwarfman's bankroll.

In fact, when I get back from vacation, I just might join you!

As some of you on mIRC have heard, I have had a very horrible run this past week, ending up in me losing 80% of my bankroll.

That means my current BR is now $12.38, this means I shall have to set a new target.

New target = $50 by New Year.

Here we go again!

BUST!

I got fed up of the micro NL fish outdrawing me so I played 2 SnGs, losing both of them, so I'm now officially bust.

Hopefully I can find a friend to re-stake me, but probably not, so back to practice on play money with me Laughing

.

I don't want this thread unstickied yet because I may be able to reload and set a new target.

{Sticky removed per new sticky policy}

Righto, now that I have some more money deposited in stars, I guess it's time to revamp Operation Crumpet!

Today, I have $71.01 in my PokerStars account. I am playing .01/.02 NL Holdem.

So, my aim is to have $100 in my account by 1st February 2005, so I can safely move up to .05/.10 NL.

So the challenge starts now!

Current Bankroll: $71.01
Days Left: 51

So far so good. I am going slowly, but surely, I am still on track to make $100 by February.

I am now on $74.06 and I have 42 days remaining.

This means I shall have to make $0.61761904761904761904761904761905 per day!

Woooooo I've been on one heck of a run lately. I might even get the $100 done with by January. But we'll see.

I am now on $90.14 and I have 39 days remaining.

That means I shall have to make $0.25282051282051282051282051282051 per day!

I completed stage 1 of Operation Crumpet!

I'm now at $107.34!

I need to set a new target but I can't think of one right now. Later.

Take it all to the 100nl table and double up...

OK. I have decided upon a new target. I probably won't get near the target though as it will be too tough to keep winning consistantly.

My target is to increase my bankroll by 1% every day for the rest of the year.

I will set my targets for every week according to the 1% increase per day.

It will be ridiculously hard but I hope I can do it.

Today is Sunday 2nd January and I have $102.19 in PokerStars.
That would mean I need to make a profit of $1.02 today.

Sound like a good idea?

So with a lot of maths, I have worked out my overall target to be achieved by 31st December 2005:

Year Target: $3822.86

Mmmmm.

Week 1: 2/1/05 - 9/1/05 Starting Balance: $102.19 Aim for End of Week: $109.56

Week 1: 2/1/05 - 9/1/05

Starting Balance: $102.19

Aim for End of Week: $109.56
