So, I reached by BR goal of turning $10 into $100.
Its a small step onto reaching my main goal of turning $10 into $1000.

To reach my goal, I played many $1 + .25 and $2 + .25 SnGs, as well as $1, $1 + .25, and $2 + .25 MTSnGs and MTTs.
Now that my BR is a little bigger, I can start playing higher limit SnGs but while still following strict BRM; only using 5% at a time.

Sweet chart. However, 5% of $10 is 50 cents. Did you start there?

Pigpen is right but you've done extremely well. Stick to the management plan and you're well on your way. Be very rigid about your BRM and especially have the discipline to play smaller if and when the downswing arrives.

Sweet chart though, you've killed it.

Well, no. I had to start playing $1 + .25/$2 + .25 SnGs and hope for the best. Once the BR got going, then I started following a BRM plan.

$2 + .25 Turbo SnGs are super easy. I also made a nice jump when I made 2 MTSnG final tables today.

There are on Ultimatebet, and the rake is only 10% ($0.05), unlike the ridiculous 25% that FT charges at the one dollar level. The fact that P. was able to beat this vig is a testament to his skill (and short term luck, as I am unconvinced that 25% can be faded long term).
