If you can play a few tournaments, besides sng's you may get lucky, and win something big. Just push some of your winnings in sngs to other games also. No need to put a big amount in. With a small buy in you can win big money.

@mober Yeah,I'm hoping to earn a lot until then! Everything above $100 will be cashed out
You will get it cause you will get $50 cash by depositing and the jackpot often hit $8 or $12 prize poll. You have 3 months to catch up your goal. Just play carefully, much weak player there. if you patient and control your emotion, you will succeed .Good luck

It's really frustrating. The cashier doesn't work for me, no matter what I do. I'll have to contact the tech team through e-mail and hope that they can come up with a solution for me!

When you have a problem with cashier, it is the one that gets resolved, in the shortest amount of time. Especially when you are trying to deposit into a site Emails though take some time to be answered, and according to the steps needed, it can take a while.

Finally!! After days and days of trouble, the cashier is working for me! I have no idea what made it work cause I was doing the exact same thing over and over again, and then all of a sudden it started working just fine. No idea how that happened.
Oh well, in any case, I've now deposited the $25 I cashed out to get the welcome bonuses. So now my balance says $33 and I have a few more days of free cash to get. I'll probably get another $45 if I'm not mistaken, that would put my bankroll up to $78.
I've got a lot of work to do to reach a point where I feel that I can cash out my earnings. Over at PartyPoker I have a more conservative stragety and I'm also planing to move up in stakes. So in order to cashout there, I need at least $150 bankroll. At ACR I'm more aggressive in my bankroll management since I'm playing with only free money so it's not a disaster if I would lose it. That being said, I only have a 50 buy-in rule and with $2 being the lowest limit, everything above $100 will be my cashout amount.
I will make all, if any, cashouts sometime in the middle of december. I'm hoping to cash out enough to pay for some christmas presents.

Thanks! I'm really hoping that I can turn a nice profit over there! If things would turn out really well, I might just make a monthly withdrawal, time will tell!

I've decided to make some minor changes to my cashout strategy this coming christmas. I will cash out everything above $100 on both sites. This is to ensure I get the best opportunity possible to get some extra cash.
On ACR I will have $78 when I've opened all of my cards from the first deposit promo. On PartyPoker I currently have $84.37 after I got my Mob Points cashout! So it's looking pretty good on both sites!

I haven't played a single game on ACR since I made my cashout a few weeks ago. I haven't had the time. I wanted to use the tickets I won on Party since they could potentially give a much higher reward compared to the chances of hitting the jackpot.
Anyway, I'll start playing over at ACR again sometime soon, probably around next weekend.
------------ Actually played a few Jackpot games at Party Poker and managed to make a profit of $0.75 so I'm happy with that.

So I just finished up my first session over at ACR. It was a short one, only about 25-30 minutes but it's past midnight here and I need to get up early. Feels bad to end it when I'm on a roll tho! I ended todays session with a $12 profit which is really good! And from what little I've seen the competition is really soft, at least I think it is but I have quite a bit of experience playing these Jackpot games.

Congratulation !! so close to your target Look like you got $12 jackpot and win . If you focus spend your time at ACR maybe you can double your target, just carefully when downswing come (we always get it). Good luck

Yeah I'm gonna be focusing on ACR for a while. If things start going bad over there, I'll just switch over to PartyPoker. A few years back when I played at multiple sites, if it was going bad at one site I could just switch to another one and there it was all good. I just need to recognize the downswing early and not lose too much.

Keep changing sites helps a lot in fighting your downswings. It also takes your mind of f it, which i think is something important. At least it was helping when i was grinding. Even the change in the poker table, graphics etc was helping Small breaks for couple of days were also good.

Yeah Mober, you're exactly right! I do get my breaks during the week days every week so I don't have to worry about that. I'm gonna be grinding today, possibly about 1,5-2 hours. Based on the result I got yesterday, I'm hoping for a good payday today as well. Keeping in mind that I only need another $10 before I can start cashing out it's looking really good for me!
I have a budget on christmas presents that sits at $550 in total. I know I'm not gonna be able to reach that but every little bit helps!
------------ So... that was a really bad session! I lost $2 but from the circumstances I'm kinda happy anyway. I had a 94% chance of winning the last hand on a $12 game and, of course, he hit one of the only 3 cards that could help him on the river. Had that not happened, the session would have have ended with a $10 profit. So an all-in with a significant edge was what determined the entire outcome of this session. Next time I'm probably gonna get a better result.
In any case, I was playing a good game and just got drawn out after a few all-ins when I was ahead at the point that the chips got put in. Long run, I'll easily be making a profit at this site! Competition is really soft in my opinion.

I think yes, but when luck go away from us, anything bad result would happen,lol. Me too. won 3 in a row spin n go at PS, I went play MTT, lost and back play spin n go again, won 3 in a row again. Feeling good, play jackpot at ACR. 1st game my AQ lost to K7os at heads up. 2nd game with 1280 chips lost 3 times in a row, my premium hand lost to crap card,so I quit. wish tomorrow will better for us Good luck

Depending on my schedual I probably won't play until next friday :/ but I have a few days when I might be able to get a couple of tables going for half an hour or so. Better then nothing I guess.
Sounds like you should stick to the Spin & Go games as well
I had a case about 2 years ago when I won about 2 dollars in freerolls and started playing Jackpot and there I had wins for winnings and for 2 days I made 200 of these two dolors and then there was a trouble I discovered a casino on it site and there left all the money Casino is bad for me

You may not reach your target budget, but you can make a good portion of it. Plus you never know. IF while you are grinding your games, playing some side tournaments, with low buy ins, you may hit a good payout, and even exceed your target You still have like three months for it...
