175k FTpoints in 20days?

To those who play at FT What do you guys think

achieving 175 FullTiltpoints in 20 days at 100nl only?

Im thinking of doing a prop bet on this and my math might be a little off.

Would anyone be able to calculate how many hours it be to pull it off?

175k??? in 20 days, gl with it

IDK the math but that is 8,750 PPs a day. That`s like IMPOSSIBLE. Maybe if you 16 table 10 hrs a day? I`d love to take some action on this if you decide to do it. I can`t say it`s impossible but......GL!!

You might want to try a game where you pay an ante every hand. Since you have money in every pot, you can earn FT points quicker. I have earned 50 points in 9 days playing about 1 hour a day at low limit Stud H/L.

Wait, that's 175,000 youre talking about. Well, same rule applies I guess.

You'd have to earn 6000 FTP points per-day if I'm understanding you correctly... 6k Per-day.

GL with that 1

175000ftp/20 would be 8750ftpoints I would need a day...I play 100nl FR and get around 500ftp per 1100 hands played playing a 13/10 style and probably a smaller rate if im playing more nitty since Ill be in less pots.

with happy hour im sure I can shed off atleast 1k ftp so it would be like 7500k fts a day.

I got around 16500 hands a day at 100nl FR (7500x2.2) and if i 16 table which I think is close to 1100 h/hour.

So with my math I got like 15 hours a day to achieve it...anyone get anything different?

How can you possibly think you can play 16 tables at one time and not make stupid mistakes to lose money? That would have to be one heck of a prop bet to make it worth the risk.

Cause 16tabling isnt so hard and plenty of people do it.
Just add 1-2 tables at a time while your geting used to it.

175k points requires paying about $20k in rake at FR. That means playing about 400k hands at 100nl according to my db. That's 20k hands per day. A little less with happy hour. So your math makes sense.

I'll give you action if you make that prop bet... It might be possible, but it's an epic grind.

epic fo sho, I wouldn't do this without huge propbet actioooonsz

A little similar to ChicagoJoey's 600k hands in a month, albeit his was at different levels and not just 100nl. GL with this if you try it.

yeah if I do go on with the bet Ill be asking for 2.5:1

pretty much because I never grinded alot before...

um...most ftpoints i got in a month 17k which is just this month, before this month I got 11k ftpoints. I never played more than 40k hands a day and never played more than 5 hours in a day.

:P

40k hands a day wtf!

How much action you looking for?

Have you actually played much 100nl before? According to http://www.pokertableratings.com/ove...?site=fulltilt , you have virtually no experience there. Or did you find a way to disappear from tableratings (that would be cool, btw).

If you're a 50nl reg and want to make a volume prop bet at 100nl, people will be taking side bets about how fast you go busto...

Yeah 100nl is my main game atm, koadyawn is the name my gf used and I play under "yuckymonkey", I had some bad sessions and broke even over the course of my first 30-50k hands.

Whoops, typo.. I meant to say I never played more than 40k hands in a month..I would like to get $3k of my money in action before I made anything official

Well, if you can manage to break even while earning 175k points, it's worth more than $5k in rakeback only. Not too bad for 20 days...

Will there be a stipulation in the bet that you have to profit? Terms + conditions of bet, Escrow, proof of hands played etc etc?

Thats a helluva lot of cash to risk just to get 175K of FTP's

profit wouldnt matter, if i were to do something like 150k ftpoints in a month then I could do a stipulation if someone wanted me to win at 1ptbb for the month, for 175k ftp in 20days Im sure ill struggle to stay in the positives as I have no stamina.

over my last 60k hands of 100nl im about a 1.5bb/100 winner not sure if its one lone break even stretch or I just suck.

but if it goes down Ill take a screenshot of my ftpoint balance before the bet and iron man calender, proof of hands played and w/e the bettors request as long as its necessary, Ive talked to Socalquest (pro instructor at bluefirepoker) and he said hell be willing to escrow the money if I get action, so if people are fine with him then he will be the escrow.

pretty simple, get 175kftpoints in 20 days at 100nl only. No purchasing any ftpoints using iron medals so that wouldnt count. some happy hour will be mixed in though.

OBV, profit will have a huge impact on the odds of the bet tbh.

If it's just a volume bet then the odds of 2.5:1 isn't that attractive imo. 2.5:1 showing a profit would be more interesting.

For just volume regardless fo winrate, then odds of like 1:1 or possibly 1.5:1 say.

Also the escrow would probably have to be a member on this site, ie mod/slanty/guide or whatever.

You're forgetting the propbet profits

I for one don't think he'll make it, willing to bet something small like $50 possibly.

thats true, still deciding if i even want to do this prop bet though. if i were to do it with a profit it would have to be like 150ftp in 20days while maintaining a 1 HEMbb/100..since thats about my normal winrate over 60k hands anyways. If it were 175k ftp im sure id be a goner in profits. I think that will be hard, considering ive only played about 170k hands lifetime and i would have to do around 300kish in 20days :P

why did you choose 20 days and not 30 btw ?

I am certainly interested in some action, although be much more interested if you at least had to break even or something.

Most poker players cant count these days lol! Honestly i think i earned as much in one three day binge. It all depends on what limits you play, the higher in the ring games can earn way more points that way. If you play low limits it will take years to obtain, but my answer would be you could do it in a week or less totally up to you and your dedication.

Yeah 300k hands in 1 week is totally realistic.

because 20 days is harder and more interesting imo + i wanted to do it sometime in April and 20 days gives me time to prepare if I still want to do it or not

yeah i geuss I can atleast breakeven, seems fair

well its at 100nl only, so I would need to obtain 25k ftpoints a day which is def. impossible at that limit :P

Interested in giving action when profits and odds are settled.

well i will definitely keep watching this to see how everything turns out. gl with your goal, and i look forward to see your updates!

thanks,

I havent started this bet yet, posted this on 2+2 and waiting for more action..if I get enough by this week Ill start it on April 10th...if not then I may try for may 1st

The bet is going to be 175ftpoints in 20 days while maintaining a positive winrate at 2.5:1 ....im a breakeven player atm or maybe im just having those long breakeven stretches and with me never playing more than 8 hour days before im thinking of just doing 175 ftpoints in 20days at 2:1 odds...let me know what you guys think

lol you beat me to it.

Ok let us know.

Ive been thinking about it recently and Ill probably just change my bet to 185k ftps in 20 days at 2:1 regardles of profits or possilby 200k ftpoints in 20days at 2.5:1 regardless of profits.

I posted on another forum and got action for 175k ftp 20 days while breaking even, though coming from a breakeven player I think I can break even, but knowing I have to breakeven to win the bet will put lots of pressure on me while im going through downswings and really effect my play resulting in me probably losing. (though if the profit didnt matter im sure I would show small profits)

So would most likely to make it 185k ftpoints in 20days at 2:1 regardless of profits and probably putting around $5k for this bet.

thoughts?

well, reading ur post on 2p2, if u are indeed telling the truth, you cannot do it
iif u have only played 40K hands in a month, u expect to play 400K in 20 days?
