Staking: One hand leads to another ..ALL NIGHT LONG

Never Ending!

Well firstly I completed the staking deal with the previous staker. I made a tidy profit completed the 100k hand deal and reached my normal old jobs wage, which i'm suprised at since I litteraly played terrible at the start of it. But in reality what actually happened was 60% rakeback deal saved my ass lol. the staker was happy also, but my actual non rakeback winnings wasnt even noteworthy although the rakeback made my profits worthwhile I hated feeling like a rakeback whore lol.

After the 100k hands (which split in 50k chunks), I was about to do another 100k hand deal with the orignal staker. However after talking to my original coach discobisco (dragthebar coach) just friendly banter at first and me vexing about the current site software being abysmal, he offered me something I really couldn't refuse.

The Deal

He wanted to stake me, offering a 60/40 deal in my favour, whilst offering coaching on top. This deal was to amazingly good to pass up. The website he had in mind was on the merge network which is offering a 50 - 60% rakeback deal depending on the amount I rake in a given week.

And as I said before I wouldn't even be this far in my poker career without his coaching, so I knew that alone sounded perfect. I'd get free coaching from a coach I was once trying to get as many sessions with, which was costly at the time. plus i get a 60/40 deal on a better website, more fish better software etc. it was a no brainer for me, I had to take the deal.

We agreed to the 50nl stake for now depending on how well I do after the 100k hands he might promote me to 100nl games (which i'm gunna really try and strive for), profits being split every 30k hands but the deal woundn't end until the 100k hand mark, where we would then decide if the deal was going to continue or not.


So my previous staker and I ended on good terms and said I was welcome back and all that, so that ended amicably, it was strange though, felt like I was breaking up with some one lol.

thats happened all in over a week and during that week I've been grinding really hard in just over 10 days i've managed 25k hands.

The Grind

I'm putting in hours from 6 hours min to so far my max being 9 hours. minmum of 6 tables max of 9 depending on how I feel. I'm very carefull not to go overboard like my previous blog entry explained of doing 10 hours a day min. however on this new site it seems with more tables i'm actually putting in even more hands that that period of 2 weeks of 10 horus a day. my daily average of hands per day is usualy 2.5k but it sometimes creeps up to 3.5k I'm doing pretty well in winnings better than the other site, I feel more intune with this site everything seems clearer to me. so on top of winnings i'm getting a pretty good rakeback deal and also a rake race i'm now ranked nicley in, so good times to come hopefully.

something I can relate to, except for callcentres and my performances are average just had to put that disclamier in there - LMFAO
love this guys vids.



Good luck all, Keep grinding.
