Week 4 Report

Stats:

Poker Play: +$38.75
Casino Bonuses: +$169

Total: +$207.75

Finally I'm starting to see a turn around in my poker play. I'm starting to get the preflop strategy cemented in my head, although I still keep the hands table next to me so I can refer to it if need be. My game has really taken the first leap towards becoming a true winning player. I got down below 200 in my poker stars account but finished strongly at 270 at the end of the day. I managed to win $38.75 over the course of the week, where I played between 800-1000 hands total.

The casino bonuses went well for me this week too. I only played one bonus over the course of the week and that was VIP casino, but I did very well, finising up by $169. I also just started on the Private Casino bonus today (100% up to 75 Euro's), it shouldn't take me long to finish that. Then I'm gonna to Euro bet, finish of the sportsbook.com group (3 casino's) then do a bunch of cashable video poker bonuses. Then the fun really starts as I move on to the semi- stickies. I'm hoping my bankroll will be up over 3 grand before I hit the semi stickies, ideally I'd like it at around 3500.

This blog probably seems to be somewhat boring for someone reading it. As at the moment its only weekly reports. I often think at points throughout the week that I could go do a post about something, like a big hand in poker or a bad beat or something, but I am usually to lazy to get started. Its the getting started thats the hard part, once I get started its easy. Although I do have another excuse, I've been doing another blog project called 'The Greatest Blog Experiment.' Its like a blog directory where I do 'blog of the month,' and 'blog of the week.' Its beggining to grow quite big, I've now got around 85 blogs linked to me, and fast approaching 700 hits, so that cool.

I still stick by my 'Goals' that I stated in an earlier post, although I've added in some more parameters.


  1. I'll more up in poker stakes from 1/2 to 2/4 when my total bankroll is at least $3000, AND I'm up at least $400 from poker play.
  2. In order to start playing semi-sticky casino bonuses, my bankroll must be at least $3000.
  3. When my bankroll reaches $5000 I will withdraw $1000 ( AU$1300) back to my actual bank account.
  4. Before I move up in stakes from 2/4 to 3/6 I need to make at least $1000 at 2/4 AND my bankroll must be at least $4000

In other news, I've got myself a job, I'm gonna do one day a week at my dads office, just crappy filing and stuff, but hey... its money. Hopefully by the X-mas holidays or first break next year, I'll be making enough from poker that I won't need to work in a 'Real Job.'
