Slowly beating the rake..

Wilhelm

It's that time of year when we make 'resolutions' that we might be able to manage for a couple of weeks but we know we could never keep up.  In 2012 I hope to add a zero to my bankroll. That equates to winning about £4000.  I plan to do this by starting at £1.15 DYMs and moving up when I have 22 buy-ins for the next level.  I've played 120 £1.15 DYMs in December.  That went something like this:




Not great.  120 DYMs and a poultry £4 profit.  I take solace in the fact that if the rake had been at the standard 10% I would have a 7.6% ROI instead of my 2.9%, although, that's still not great.  I'll be updating this thread as and when I feel is appropriate, or alternatively when I have a bad beat to share.  I plan to get about 250 games in next month so hopefully in 31 dyas I'll be chirping about my £11.25 profit.  Can't wait.

Good luck mate.

I used the JC Method (22 BI's to move up) and was able to move from £2.25 to £3.30 and get to the stage where I had my 2 shots at £5.50 next month, and all this using JC's guide with hand ranges and when to shove etc so it can be done. You say you played 120 in Decemeber, this needs to increase a lot if you want quicker progress but as long as you're playong correctly it's not a massive issue.

All the best and try and run good early !

Dude,s right Wilhelm
playing only 120 a month could take you a while
before you see any big changes
(as a matter of interest,i play about 120 games
in 3 nights  on 6 tables @ £3.3o level,and will
probably take a month or so ,i think ,before making enough
to move up a level....hopefully!)

think it all depends on what YOU want

anyway,like you say u r up £4
not everyone can say that.

good luck buddy

looking forward to the next up-date

I agree.  I should say that I have played 120 £1.15 DYMs this month amongst other things.  I plan to give more attention to them next month.
