The Finish

I made it to 200k VPPs. It's over. Done. Complete. Finito.

And it feels...weird. More on that later.

Games: 11,429
Profit: $13,715
VPPs: 72,016.11


Plus I need to factor in the bonuses.

$4k - 250,000 FPP Reward Bonus
$2.6k - 200,000 VPP Milestone Reward Bonus
$410 in BOP Bonuses

Then there's additional money from staking/coaching/videos/cash/etc which is somewhere in the neighborhood of $1.5k. So the total is $22,225 in profit for 50 days of work. Not too shabby. Annnnnnnnd I'm running $1900 below EV.

Right now, I definitely feel a sense of accomplishment. I knew it'd be difficult to earn 72k VPPs in such a short span and I'm proud I was able to stick with it, despite downswings and life-related distractions. I'm relieved I don't have to play another SNG until mid-January. At the same time, err, I might load a few games. What else am I going to do? The challenge has consumed my life over the last month and a half and I've somewhat forgotten how else to fill my days. What do normal people do? Haha. I guess I'll start with a three week vacation in San Diego/Las Vegas and figure it all out once I return to Vancouver. It's a fun problem to have.

Yeah, I'm obviously all smiles right now. If it were earlier in the day I'd go celebrate with a steak but it's almost 2 AM and I'm not settling for a t-bone from Denny's. No sir. I deserve much better than that. GL to the rest of the regulars grinding for milestones and for the low to midstakes STT players, enjoy the abarone68-free games.

Congratulations, well done sir.

I been playing MTT for 3 years at really micro level. With not much success, just a win here or there. But now have started playing 7 dollar 9 Man STT. I am loading 6-10 games a set and wait for all to finish and reload after a 5 minute break. I am thinking of increasing the volume/buyin at some point.

May I please ask you what games you play and how many games you load at a time if it is STT.
