1/2 Year Report

When I started playing, I quickly decided that one of my goals was to make enough money to be able to travel and visit my "international" friends. One of the benefits of playing is that I can still earn my moneyz where ever I am in the world with my laptop. Having this freedom is great, and with nothing locking me down I'm free to go whenever I want, for however long I want.

This crazy dream is now becoming a reality! My first stop will probably be to visit one of my best friends in Perth, Australia, and see how life is treatin' him. No doubt, I have many other places on my list, and it does play on my mind that I should really be saving some money, but I'm young and quite frankly being cooped up in this miserable country for nearly 2 years since my last major travel (I <3 CALI!).

Other places on my list is New York (gonna go in October), Thailand, Vancouver, and Tokyo. Also gonna try and go to Hong Kong with my parents at the end of the year.

So June is over and I've had my most successful month ever. Course, strangely enough, the more I'm not worrying about the money the better I'm doing. Playing higher stakes has allowed me to get 10k VPPs this month. I'm pretty confident I will get Supernova, the question is just when. Sharkscope is saying I made $2680 in June, but my PT is adding my rakeback, which I'm now spending on 280 FPP satellites.

Here are my half yearly results by month;

January: -$1.10
February: -$544.50
March: +$246.70
April: +$323.74
May: +$2032.50
June: +$3485.80

Total Battle of Planets Bonuses: +$487.50
Total Prop Bet Winnings: +$705
VIP Cash Bonuses: +$800

My results are pretty sick, as my buddy put it, "Your graph is like a rocket ship ready to take off... lift off!". But I'm still feeling humble about it and trying to not let it get to my head. I know it can turn around in a second so I want to prepare for it. I still have a ton of learning to do, and even if I'm not as good as some of the top players I know I can still try to outgrind them onto that leaderboard.

I do yap on a bit, so to end this blog I would like to share some conceptual art;

"This is not a pipe" - Rene Margitte

"This is not a goal" - Sepp Blatter FIFA President refused goal line technology in football (soccer for you yanks) before the World Cup.

At 2-2, who knows, we could have lost 4-2 to them instead! We were still shit tho, just waiting for a spark that never came. Brazil look hot, gonna pip them to win!
