Posted by bullettooth1: That advice is just stupid (no offense) All it would take is a couple of bad beats and thats it, bankroll almost gone. No point risking your bankroll for the sake of a status Plus he would be playing scared and that definitely isn't the right way to play.
couple bad beats lol , why not couple of wins we ain't talking about freeroll MTTs here no one is gonna shove with 3-6 off suit pre-flop
no offense taking i am not giving advice here , i am just saying what i would do i ve done it before successfully and i am happy with resultat
You get 5.5 VPP from every dollar of rake on PS, so you will need around 24 dollars worth of rake in a strech of two weeks - making your task to play out $1.75 worth of rake every day until the end of the month. It's not impossible you got great bankroll for it but this is gonna be a long run if you keep grinding all those $0.25 SNGs.

play cash games NL2 4,5 days constantly if you have bankroll of 160 $ you cant lose so much if you play intellegent open up to 4 tables analyze your opponents and if you play 4,5 hours a day you will easily have 130 vpps in few days i remember when i played those limits it took me 3 days to have 70 vpps so you can do it in 10 days easily

I lied when I said I only needed 90, lol that was for my 10 dollar bonus and was confused however I have 95 to go this time for my Silverstar. I can play single table 5/10c zoom and within an hour get about 15-20 vvps. I have 1 week to go so along with some luck and no major downswings I think I can pull it off this month.
Its easy iff u play regular 1 $ spin and go's You go pretty fast silverstar,.. Its really not that hard,... But then again spin and go's a bankrollmanagement of 250 buy-ins is not crazy maybe even more. The silverstar is ok 100 fpp every week tournament..and its pretty soft

I find the spin and goes rigged most of the time. I play premium hands most of the time and always get donked out like 8 in a row.. I have a 35 dollar bankroll so juggling between those, cash zoom tables and 6max sit n goes!
i remember when i played those limits it took me 3 days to have 70 vpps so you can do it in 10 days easily 
).
