January Review & More

January was a tough grueling month and it's only a indicator of what is ahead in this SNE chase. The good news is, I'm ready for it and even more focused now in achieving my goals. I'm currently at about 82k vpps, so I'm right where I need to be. Profit wise, I could of did better in my opinion, but I did make a nice comeback in the end from a 3k deficit and profited 500 at the cash tables. It's not what I had in mind, but as long as I'm above break-even, I'll take it and won't complain. Hopefully I can do better next month!

WBCOOP & Sunday Tournies Review

The WBCOOP was a fun tournament, it was my first time hearing about it a couple of weeks ago, so I decided to take a shot at it. I didn't manage to play in all the events and only cashed in one event, that being the first PLO event. I earned a $33 SCOOP ticket and free money/entries are always nice. Kind of funny how it was the only event I cashed in and went 0/3 for the NLHE event (Rarely, rarely play PLO)

I don't usually tourney, but I did yesterday, since there were a couple of big tournies running (Turbo Takedown, WBCOOP ME, etc...) I made only a small profit of like 40 bucks of them. Couldn't really get into a groove in them and before you know it, I was knocked out in majority of the tournaments I was playing. I however did manage a decent run in the Sunday 1/4 million and was where my profit came from lol.

Profit for January

Not sure if I should be discussing this, but I'll give it a go, since I feel like I have nothing to hide and it might inspire future SNE chasers. Also I guess people can sort of tell how much I make with PTR being so accessible.

Cash Table Earnings: $470 as seen above graph.
Tournament Table Earnings: $78 (includes SCOOP ticket)
Bonuses: 4K + Stellars ($900) = $4900
FPPs: I forgot how many FPPs I started with and earned, but I know it's no less than 30k and not higher than 50k. I'll choose 40k because it gives us a middle ground. 40K X .016 (FPP value of the 4k bonus) = $640.

Using my handy dandy calculator, it adds up to...

$6088. (Note: SNE is more end heavy bonus wise because of the milestones, so profits in the first few months are not as much in the latter months.)
