Turning $1 into $1,000 playing poker online - update #9

September 2nd, 2007 by Kenric

Wow, I can’t believe it has been over a month since my last poker update.  When I first started this journey of turning $1 into $1000 playing poker in May, I really thought I would be doing it playing cash games.  I hit my $50 milestone in just two days.  I hit the $100 target a week later.  On my last update I had $483 and it’s been hell breaking that $500 barrier and holding it.  I finally busted past it and was able to break $600 last month.

In July, I switched over to Sit-n-Go tournaments instead of cash games. Unfortunately, my poker software doesn’t combine cash and sit-n-go games so I can’t use the graphs anymore.

I haven’t been playing alot of poker.  I need to really play more if I’m going to make my goal in a timely manner.  To give you an idea of how much I’ve played to get this far, I’ve played:

• 31,403 hands in cash games
• 80 various sit-n-go tournaments ranging from $6-$16 buy ins

My running total is at $671.  With some luck I should hit $1000 within 2 weeks if I just continue to play at a consistent basis.
