$50 GOAL

Now that I have $25 in my bankroll, I can finally apply the golden rule to use only %1 of the bankroll for buy-in. I'm gonna try a mix of $0.25 and $0.55 45-player sng's . $0.55 buy-in is only %2 of $25. So in this way maybe I can achieve my 3rd goal a lil faster.


BANKROLL:


$25 GOAL - completed

2nd goal - success. Took me 4 days to achieve. Haven't played for the weekend coz I was doing other things. On to the next goal!


NEW BANKROLL:


Almost @ $25

2nd Goal within reach... Just a few more sessions... Damn I gotta review and plug my leaks... o well.. back to the tables...

variance bites

I ran into a bit of variance my last two days of session... almost going back to $13.. good thing I came back up and ended my day/night with this bankroll. I'm hoping to reach my 2nd goal in the next few days.

$25 GOAL

2nd goal. To double my bankroll and reach $25 playing $0.25 45-player sng's. Upon reaching this, I can now follow the golden rule and earn my way to the ultimate goal.

NEW BANKROLL:



$10 GOAL - completed

1st goal - success.  After 3 sessions of 20 $0.25 45-player sng's I completed my goal and doubled my bankroll.

1st session

after 3 hrs and 23 sng's later, here's my  new bankroll

BANKROLL:

$10 GOAL

My first goal is to double my bankroll to $10 by playing $0.25 45-player sng's and freeroll tournaments. Although this is against the 1% buy-in rule, there aren't any $0.05 sng tournaments around so I guess the 1% rule applies when my bankroll reaches $25. Gotta lot of work to be done and cents to earn then...
and so...

STARTING BANKROLL:





GOOD LUCK TO ME AND MY POKER CAREER!!! $1,000,000 online poker earnings here I COME!!!

The Genesis

My poker name is adamos168 and I play at pokerstars.com. I'm learning to be a winning poker player. I'm gonna follow the golden rule used by poker pro's "To use only 1% of your bankroll for buy-in." My ultimate goal is to reach $1,000,000 in online poker earnings. I'm gonna start small and work my way up using the golden rule and sticking with it. Poker variance come and go. Good and bad luck will even out. Skill will prevail over time. This will be my learning process for my poker career.

I'm gonna start my bankroll with $5.50 which I won from a freeroll tournament with 40k participants. Below is the result:
