My BR finally hit 10K

Postby GooperMC » Wed Nov 01, 2006 8:40 pm

On a very nondescript +$47 session my BR just hit the 10K mark. It has been a long journey and I would like to thank everyone who helped me along the way. When I started playing I really sucked (see table below). Then I discovered UPF and broke even, then 2+2 and started winning, and now here and I am soundly beating the game. Monk, Greg, Kuso, Mute, Tom, and others have been instrumental in improving my game so thanks.

A summary of my poker journey by winrate (and hopefully encouragement for any posters / lurkers who are struggling):

First 4 months (learning to how to play): 0.2 $/hr
Next 4 months (discovered bonus whoring and started to beat low limit poker): 3.1 $/hr
Next 5 months (learned about PLO8): 8.8 $/hr
Next 13 months (graduated undergrad): 20.1 $/hr
Next 4 months (started grad school): 6.8 $/hr
Next 4 months (decided grad school and poker don’t mix): 0 $/hr
Last 4 months (last semester of grad school): $48 / hr

Before the immoral minority shuts down internet poker there are still a few things I would like to accomplish
- Hit 20K in roll
- Bring my overall (since day 1) winrate over $20/hr
- Have my table winnings surpass my bonus whoring winnings
- Break 10K in PLO8 winnings.

Hopefully those goals will be accomplished a little more smoothly then the previous ones.
Rhound - I got 2 outted in a $2000 pot last year, I have also broke a cup in half playing catcher. The feelings were similar.
