Posted by BeMyATMplz: Oh that's pretty good,I'm still living at home too so no own expenses (yet ) Wouldn't it be better to play on a site with a better rakeback deal though? There are sites that offer up to 80% rakeback,those deals are secret though (no,nothing illegal,it's still a secret deal though),I'm sure you could earn ALOT more using a good rakeback deal instead of the low cashback on betfair for example

It's called "propping". If you use one of those offers then you have to follow a few rules,like you have to open another table when one gets full (at cashgame),but the 80% one I'm talking about,the only rule is you can't play HU tables,everything is fine. The site I found it on is actually one of the biggest rakeback sites there are,and the offers usually come from the poker rooms themself. If you have MSN/AIM/Skype I can tell you more about it

Well if you're a SNG/MTT player anyways,there are no restrictions at all Just google it,it's called "propping" like I said before. If you are,however,successful on your current sites anyways there is no need to move

OOoOOOOoooh boy... I didnt write here long time. 116 days ago So I will try to sum all 116 days in brief post... For last 3 months Im regular Pokerstars player. Thanks to our friend Flippedchips who helped me with transferring money from UB to PS. I managed to build my roll from 90$ to 1100$ playing almost only 7$ SNG HU. In same time I got few $ here and there on various rooms so this 3 months was pretty standard In same time I almost stopped to play MTTs. Got bored with them... But I started to play them 10 days ago and managed to win second place in 5,5$ on 888. Not bad 320$ cash but I felted like I had to win that one since I had chip lead almost during whole time at final table and had 3 to 1 chip lead in heads up. But still its OK. What to say more... I was on vacation and I paid it completely with money I have earned playing poker. Actually I am still living from playing poker so its good for now I guess...

I think Im going to play 100 3,3$ 5max SNGs on Ongame. I havent sleep at all last night (swiched day for night ) And I want to do little experiment. I want to 4 table those 5max turbos (anything more is insane) and I think I will make 100 of them in 10 hours. I will not start new one until I finish all for (better concentration in late stages) Why I am doing this? 1. Because Im not normal person 2. Because I want to see how I will do when I look on every SNG as a small part of big session 3. To calculate my ROI on 100 games 4. To play by far biggest amount of SNGs in one day 5. To try to make over 50$ 6. To challenge myself
Here is my graph before thees games. I will update when I finish...
------------ BTW, playing on Red Kings. Started this month so Im clearing bonus too and participating in leaderboard...

lol,what the hell @ playing 100 SNGs in the way you described I'm playing ~100 games per day on stars by now,but I'm usually 12 tabling and reload new tables once I busted. The way you mentioned would be way too boring to me tbh - playing HU on 1 table or something,then having to go through the tight early stage everytime again :x To be honest I don't think you'll make it - simply because I'd imagine its getting boring playing 25 sets of SNGs on one day and having to go through the early stage over and over again without having any later stage game with action,but I'm looking forward to you surprising me gl
EDIT: Maybe I'll join a few of your SNGs for fun,my username @ ongame is IShoveWide (just started to clear the bonus on hollywood poker some "affiliate site" that I cant mention here offers )

I know what you telling me but you cant compare 9 people mtt with this 5 people turbo. Plus you dont have time bank on Ongame so you have like 10 seconds to act. I played more then 4 of them and I made lot of mistakes. Hmmm, Ishovewide I see you are quite a savvy
------------ I stopped playing because of maintenance...

Yeah when I play @ ongame I usually dont play more than 4 tables either,the software is really fast,no hotkeys for shoving etc.. Still reloading tables once I bust tho And there is no maintence,not anymore at least (there probably was earlier,when I logged in only 2 $3.30 turbo 5 max ran and I wondered why but its fine now)

Pozdrav
Uh, I dont actually know should I write it here. Im from VGD. Im sure you know which town that is. This is highly positioned site on google and I wouldn't like someone typing name of town and finishing here. Anyway you can find my username on PS here so you could find me and say hi in chat Or you can find my facebook on Bankrollmob group since Im sure Im only Jovica there.

There was some time since I have updated this tread. Well Im very sutisfied with last couple of months. I have good profit. In September I had around 700$ profits. Earnings are mostly came from HU SNGs on Poker Stars and 250$ 2nd place on MTT on 888. October was one of my best months so far and I have managed to have around 1000$ in profits! Around 500$ camed from 5max SNGs on Ongame, other half camed from various stuff including HU SNGs on Stars and some video NL20 on 888. I was bored by playing HU games so played them very few in October. Less then 100 I think. This month November was pretty good too (not over yet tho). I returned to playing HU SNGs and I started to play on Terminal poker a bit Got 20euros for free and managed to built it into 100euros (I have sick rakeback 85% there tho). Im up 500$ playing HU SNGs on stars and some 6max too. Won 300$ on 888 promotional private web cam tourney (finished 1st). Also up aroun 100$ on Ipoker including BRM gift but quit playing there after nice downswing... Lost couple of bucks here and there on diferent sites (maybe 100$). So overall I think Im up in this month like 800$ which I think is good.
Im thinking about playing HU on Stars and new video HU sngs on 888 with 1hour a day playing on Terminal poker some rush Whish me good luck! I think about updating this blog every week so I can motivate myself to play more and better. So here are my Sharkscope graphs on PS and 888. Funny, they havent tracked my 300$ win in that private tourney and couple of other on 888. Also they dont track cash soooo...

Very nice stats and very consistent, you proved to be a winning player thats for sure now, it reminds me of myself my profit was every month $800/$1200 incl all deals and every month my roll went up cos withdraw is for donks
Not poker much atm just playing a bit for fun just break even, bit rusty atm cos i didnt play for 5 months. My roll is the same but have to make new goals wot i gonna do with it cos lost a bit focus.
Anyway now or maybe not now but in the next months you have to try to step up which is extremely diffecult, i tried couple of times but failed due too nittying up playing higher stakes so didnt play A-game. I stepped down again and played again my boring grind game totally overrolled.

nice results jovi
but why do you use to play in so many rooms? don't you think concentrating your efforts in only one or two would provide a better return in terms of rakeback/VIP system?

Nice to see that you will be back to regular blog posting jovica. I find it very interesting to follow your progress because you are doing this full time plus you are beating the game plus you are young and have many years ahead of you.

Until a year or two ago, I would play regularly two or three rooms as well, but had to stop because my available time for poker has greatly diminished. The advantage that I found was that if I was having a lot of bad beats on one site, I could switch to another and often I would recoup the losses and post an overall gain. The other advantage was that it was harder for the regs to get used to my play, and so after a couple of weeks of playing elsewhere, I could come back and beat them with similar tactics that I had used before. Obviously you are searching out the best offers/tourneys out there to justify your time investment too. What are your reasons Jovica? The people of BRM want to know!

I played tons of rooms with mainly 1 main room (PKR). Gifts/1st dep deals gives you in many rooms so much rakeback, sometimes even more then 100%, so clear the deal and get out to the next one, simple

80%! Never heard for something like that...
