dreamcrusher28 0 Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 VIP on AP is like 5,000 points... I did 820.80 today, in less than 300 hands of 5/10 HU LHE.The real money comes when you reach Elite (40k VIP points). For the month or lifetime total?? I think I have ~30K VIP points at AP. (total) I've never used my points there. Still not sure how all that stuff works. Just focusing on not losing takes enough outta me!! :icon_biggrin:EDIT: Just checked, I have 23K VIP's, 31K ARP's Link to post Share on other sites

Just focusing on not losing takes enough outta me!! :icon_biggrin:EDIT: Just checked, I have 23K VIP's, 31K ARP'sYou would have just made Platinum VIP at 20,000 VIP points. You now get 2x ARPs, so for each VIP, you get 2 ARPs.If you want to make money from this, wait until you get to Elite, and you can trade in your VIP points (min of 50k) for 1.5 cents/pt, just by contacting the VIP email. You can do it at Platinum, and all other levels as well, but you get a worse exchange rate. Still 50k min though.But yeah, it's 40k lifetime. There are some standards to maintain them though. For Platinum, I think it's 5k VIPs/month. For Elite, it is 10k VIPs. They give you one month, but if you miss it twice, they drop you down until you get 10k in another month (or 5k, or whatever level you were). Link to post Share on other sites
mikeysong 0 Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 off to a good start up roughly 800 in the first day....I put a cashout in for 900 b/c i am nowhere near ready for 3/6 or 5/10. Gonnna leave myself plenty of BB for 2/4 limit for a while so that i can improve my game before I try to make a bunch more money. goal is to make 1k more before the end of the month at purely 2/4 limit. I should need less than 15k hands, but I want to get that at minimum.there hsouldn't be a big jump between 3/6 and 2/4. Just hit up 3/6 cuz the rake at 2/4 is killer Link to post Share on other sites
whatgreatis 0 Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 I started an online bankroll this month and have been 3 tabling stud/stud hilow/.5 .10 nl so far I'm doing well.December Goals-profit 600 liveprofit anything onlinekeep working out on a regular basisget blufferdave to work outMissed my live goal. I made +374. Had 10winning sessions 5 losing ones for 15 sessions total throughout December. Not too bad since the holidays kept me busy. I was also sick for a few days and wasn't able to play.Barely missed the second goal. I was up 30BB two days ago but now I'm down 20bb. Pretty much nothing though compared to earlier in the month. At the beginning of December I started to play a lot of MTT's and they were a little too big for my BR. Then I started to only grind the .5/1 horse game and it shot up real quick. Half way failed work out goal. I worked out until I got sick and after that work got extremely busy. I didn't feel like working out after putting in 10+ hours a day at work.Failed to get Blufferdave to work out with me.Overall I'm not too disappointed with December. Things could have gone better though.January Goals:1. Profit 600 live (I haven't made this since Oct, it's time to meet it again)2. Make 100bb playing only .5/1 horse and keep silverstar membership3. Start working out again. Work is slowing down and its time to get back into the gym.4. Finish reading SS1 and read a few chapters of SS2.Weeeeeeeee, lets start the new year out right.

iggymcfly 0 Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 Decided to add one more goal. I'd kinda like to put in 40K hands online this month. I put in over 20K in 10 days at the end of December, so I think 40K is definitely doable. Link to post Share on other sites

TeeSludge 0 Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 December Goals were: Play 25k handsWin at least 5kPlay my best in the remaining Trump Classic events and Harrah's WSOP events if I play any of those.Convince Jordan to come to ACDecember Results:Played almost exactly 20k hands.. I'm not disappointed about not reaching my goal bc there was 8 days in the month I didn't play online at all do to the holidays and live events.I won close to $3.8k in cash games online and I cashed in one WSOP circuit event for $8.4k. I thought I brought my A game to all the live tourneys I played. I was one race away from a big score in the WSOPC. January Goals:Play 30k handsWin 7kPlay my best in Borgata Winter Open.

iggymcfly 0 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Hurtling toward busto with incredible speed. I am running $5,000 below expectation at PLO this month, but I didn't move down to 0.5/1 when I was supposed to, and I even had a really soft 2/4 table open last night where I lost $2,000. Anyway, here's an incredibly depressing picture: Link to post Share on other sites

bdc30 0 Posted January 4, 2008 Author Share Posted January 4, 2008 I really hope you destroy sell your seat to someone else for the HU matches on Stars and use that $2k to try and rebuild some semblance of a bankroll at the proper limits that you know you can crush, instead of being a stubborn moron and playing $400plo with ~$2500 in your account.Odds against this happening +250Any action?
