Goal #1 is Complete
It's only June 11th, so I am going to revise my goal of turning $500 into $1000. I'll shoot for $1500 now. When I signed up for rakeback through PokerInside.com there was a 300% up to $500 Deposit bonus, but I never received it. Now it's gone from the site. Kind of annoying, but that's my only complaint about the site and I'll write it off as a timing issue. I'd anxious to see what items they put in their PI Store. I'm guessing it will be along the same lines as PSO.com
I think that between rakeback and my solid play at these current stakes, another $500 is easily attainable. I'm going to focus on reaching the $1500 mark and then I'll blast through my 50 SnG Goal and post my results at the end. I'm off to a good start but that doesn't mean much.
***
I built it up so fast by playing six handed games, but the variance is so high with these that I should probably go back to a 10 handed game. I dunno. I'll say this after I drop $30 playing short-handed but then I stick it out and stack someone later.
Reaching $1000 also makes me sufficiently bankrolled for 10 handed .50/1 NL games so I may drop the short-handed pushfests completely to play at higher stakes. It's probably EV+ for me to do that. I'll give it a shot and see what happens.
