  1. Hello all!, i would like you to help me on my daily games...i have 1k bkr and i need to make 3k per month, wich games should i play and in wich volume? any useful help will be really apreciated, thank you all!!!
  2. Lol, if it were only that easy
  3. B = Buy-in
    R = ROI
    V = Volume
    P = Expected Profit

    Here's the formula....
    B x R = P
    3,000/P = V

    Simple as that.

    As for which buy-ins... whatever you are the most profitable at..
  4. I mean really, u are asking how to have $36,000/year profit, while only playing with a 1k br, with no downswings.... When u figure it out, let me know
  5. If you wanna limit the BR to 1k gonna be hard. Starting w 1k and getting to 3k a month isnt absurd tho. I wouldnt be cashing out the first month is all.

    I mean, turning 1k into 4k consistently each month as a source of his only income is absurd

  8. If you NEED 3k a month, go get a job..got get 6 jobs. Don't rely on poker with a 1k BR and until you have CONSISTENTLY had a reasonable ROI.

    Def would be difficult I cant imagine most poeple not going broke at some point for sure. Pretty sure I could do it consistently if only there were some money in it for me. If only I could do 10k BR into 30k profit each month.
  10. Change 1k br to 10k br and you have a start.
  11. $24 45 man sit n gos FTP..run good...n 1k HU sit n go at the end of the month if u come up short

  12. don't be results oriented as you already sound to be. be effort based where you say to yourself, if I put in the hours, manage my monies correctly and continue to evolve my game then the results will come.

    Remember that PERFECTION COMES LAST.

    I'm a huge believer in inevitability where if you work hard, it will happen. Look at my 2010 graph on SS. I had a 1k BR in January and grinded my face off playing nothing over 10$ and mostly playing EVERY 3-5$ double stack, reg stack and turbo (mostly 12 tabling) until the game became like flash cards. all my work payed off in March where I upticked 15k in one weekend. it's December and I had a 36k year which I am very proud of for what I call my freshman year.

    Get a coach if you need to, you didn't learn algebra by yourself and at times poker can be just as troubling without direction.

    he didnt ask for your opinion on how to chit all over him.......he asked on how can he make something work.....its very posiible.......if you can spare 100 of that to join a training site.....

    keep your abi at 3-5 and what jlizard said, dont cash out after first month.....lotta great stuff at micro levels, i run a stable with 10 micro players and some of them do very well on a abi under 5 dollars.......some easily make 1-2k a month....

  15. Play the hourly $8.80 180p max at FTP as a starter.
     
  16. How'd you get the 1K? Just do that 3x a month.
  17. The time u spend at the grind with that BR isn't a guarantee. But u can work half days make like 10$ hr. Low very low pay. 30 hrs x 10hr = 300 after taxes about $250 x 4 weeks = $1000 now u grind rest. Rent should be payed. Sell car put in savings account for rainy day fund. $1000 -2k. If lucky. 2 months rent. Wait food what to do get job at a place where u get free lunch breakfast or dinner. Hotel jobs some restaurants pizza always can trade a pie for other foods. Now we need Internet. Steal wifi from some place u can sit for 6-8 hrs maybe 10 if deep runs late entries in the day. (but I will lose connection. find good spot your problem not mine. )what about social life. Please search top 100 pros in like 2 days opr see who played on Xmas. Social life when u have the money. Extra time travel on bus read poker books or mags at the store. While walking or riding bus listen to podcasts about poker. Have u figured out where I'm going. Simply put u CAN DO IT. BR and life management. Last but not lest why invest in something if u don't believe in it truly. Set realistic goals and 1dream goal. YOUR DREAM has been said now go do the little things. GL out there.
  18. Search BOKU87 !!!!

    uhm, true grinder.
     
  21. You aren't going to listen to anyone telling you that you need more money to start soooo...

    Play the 90s kos on FT as high as you can as many tables as you can without busting your roll.

    It is the most realistic way to do it.
     
  22. try star and those 3r,60k/40kgtd,5r,50kgtd, 11, daily 40k/25k gtd. 5r,1r,1d 25k gtd. 1r 15k gtd,2r 7k gtd
    sometimes take shot at 55, DNG or 70k..

    above tourney are usually huge field size.but if u manage to get though.would be great.

    also.don't put u hopes too high...poker is gambling.and gambling does not always equal profit..
  23. Play 100x $3.30 DS-T-KO on FTP. Multi-table your sessions & repeat each step until you have your bank roll advanced to continue repeating the 100x games. That should be about every three days to start.

    If you don't like KO events play the regular 90-man SNGs or the On-Demand SNGs on the same schedule as below. You pick a buy-in where you feel comfortable starting. If you prefer stars, start with the MT-SNGs starting at $2.20, $3.25, &/or $4.40.

    When you double up the cost of $330 for that 100, play 100x $6.50 DS-T-KO on FTP.

    When you double up the cost of $650 for that 100, play 100x $13.00 DS-T-KO on FTP.

    When you double up the cost of $1300 for that 100, play 100x $26.0 DS-T-KO on FTP.

    Repeat as often as necessary. If you have a downswing, drop a level to begin rebuilding.

    You should be able to get in 25+ games per day to start and adjust as you become more comfortable & increase the volume.

  26. Maintain a 50% roi and play 53 3$ 90 man KO's per day. Although, I would suggest putting 60 in per day.. And buy alot of redbull

    Wouldn't the money needed for the red bull hurt your endgoal more then it would help???
  29. Play 25/50nl and grind your way up to 50/100. Once you have enough liquidity to handle those vicious mtt downswings, start playing the smaller field sngs and work up to those 3r,5r etc. IMO
  30. with not so much money, cash > MTTs 4sure
