Hey all! I am very excited to be here and i really love and enjoy playing MTT's for the 1st time in years. My goal will be to enjoy the time that i am playing and making a profit from it. The dream is, ofcours, to play poker professionaly. But as we all know that is easyer said then someone could ever do!
Ok, so here is my Goal and my Challenge!
I started with $54.03 in my Pokerstars Bankroll. Figuring out what i wanted to play and giving myself very strict rules, because money is short and reloading money is very tough for me right now! I enjoy the game of poker and really love the rollercoaster of emotions you go through when you play multitabling MTT's. I dont have any problem playing for the lowest stakes and really proving to myself that i can win at poker and that i am willing to learn and addept my buyinns to the amount of money i have. I allready started with this challenge and have played for 3 days using the following buyinn rules:
I can only play a MTT that has a buyinn LESS then $1 or the $1 180 man SNG. Suprisingly enough, Pokerstars has a couple of those running every hour and they are good to play in! atleast for me and for now. play is suprisingly serious. I will only register for tournament with a serten time frame depending on what i have to do later that day or the next day. Due to getting up early for work and being fresh the next day.
3 days in and really enjoying what my schedual. In the past i just played what i could register and never used any BankRollManagement. These 3 days have been really relaxing, knowing that i am not risking my whole bankroll on 1 night or 1 MTT. Also the fact that min cashing is so low in these UBER-Microstakes, that i really dont care about the bubbeling and i can really play like i see and hear other do around the bubble! (thanks TPE, Allready 2 major changes to my game). In these 3 days i managed to get to 6 Final tables and winning 1 of those. Running my bankroll up to $127. It might sound weird but i am really happy with this!
Now that my bank roll is over $100 i will be adding a few extra MTT's in my sessions, all with a buyinn not higher then the $1.35 KO Turbo on Stars and going to play 1 MTT on FTP.
I hope i still make sence to you all tho!
My Goals will be changing and that depends on my Bankroll. When i have more money in there i will try and add higher buyinn MTT's tho i need to have 100 buyinns in my Bankroll for that MTT.
My Big goal for the end of 2014 is to have a bankroll of $10.000,-. so lets see how i will go on my journy
I will update how i am doing every time something is about to change! I feel really confident about this way of playing. I know it might sound silly and a waste of time to play the UBER-Micro's, but we all have to learn at some level of play.
Thanks for reading and if you have advice, tips or Questions. Contact me!! 🙂

HEY!
so an update of my road to my $10.000 bankroll!
I really have been enjoying the time i spend in the chat room with others! sharing and hearing how others do is really fun! also the support is very warming, eventho i play the UBER-micro's.
when i made my 1st post i just moved up to the MTT's upto $1.50 and playing a good volume. Since my 1st post i have booked a few very good results! i won 3 Tournaments:
a $1 180 man SNG
a $0.50 500 cap with 337 runners
and a 9 man MTT, it was in the MTT lobby tho only 9 player registered but still took it down.
also made it to 6 other Finaltables
My bank roll is now $223.92 and i am very proud of it and i will be playing the $2 buyinns on Stars and FTP aswell. Changing my MTT schedual a little and now playing a few more big fields MTT's. Next update will be again on next weeks sunday and hoping i can report a few wins again and a bigger bankroll
Tho a few things i have learned and experienced before i round it up. I really underastimated Bankroll Management. Now that i have a proper bankroll management, I can play so freely and really dont care that much when i bust out of 3 MTT's in 1 minute. It still sucks, but it wont impact my poker and its only a small % of my bankroll. The bubbles are WAY WAY WAY more fun and interesting. I finaly know what the fuzzz is all about. Having 10 BB with 30 players left and 27 paying and then ending up with a 75BB stack the moment the bubble burst is a great feeling. I am experiencing a lot more deep runs out of the blue and poker has been a real joy instead of a boring grind. The experience i get now with playing a lot more final tables and the moment before a final table are also very helpfull and a great learning experience. Only aming for the top 3 spots, because of the lvl of play i do, you really dont care about finishing lower, makes the poker and my play way more interesting and makes me feel really good about my game.
I am slowly but steady moving up and i hope this continues. I still have a lot to learn and if any of you point me in the right direction i would be amazing! I look to improve my out of position play, specially when i am in the SB against the BB. I always seem to loose a lot of chips to the BB and really want that to stop!
Again the chat has been fun, great and supportive and i feel amazingly proud to feel part of the TPE nation!

Hey! time for a little update! I just broke the $400 mark on my Bankroll and i thought i was time to share something about my games. i made it 9 days in a row making it a FT of a MTT with atleast 100 players. Having my higherst cash of 6th for $101.34 in a $3.30 6-max with over a 1000 runners. shame i only played 1 hand on that FT tho really happy with the result. At this moment that i am writing it we are down to 9 players in that same MTT so i am hoping to play more hands on the Final Table.
I am still getting used to the new MTT Buyinns and it feels tougher to play at those tournaments because you really get played back more at and you get punished for you mistakes way harder. tho i really enjoy playing to win more and feel a bigger challenge in the $2 and $3 buyinns. Also thanks for some of the railing and getting to know more players in the chat, shame not more ppl use it! (hint hint)
So i am still playing in the 6-max and down to 8! it makes me really nerveus and excited. i want to thank TPE sofar and i really see i am picking up on things, tho i have to learn not to donk of my tournament with AK or 77 in the early levels of a tournament. i also been trying to avoid playing big pots out of position. I really struggle in those spots, tho in videos they seem so easy.
Well just made it Back to back to the Final Table of the $3.30 6-max, both had over 1100 runner.
so it is my biggest cash since joining TPE, $158.46. i so want to thank TPE and again proud to be part of the TPE nation! 😀
so the plan for now is to keep playing my schedual untill i am over the $500, then ill be adding a few $4.40 MTT”s but really need to get used to these newer ones. trying to find my confort zone and taking down a big score (and that be over $500 for now)
Ok enough typing! See you all at the tables or chat!
