Day 2 was average. I lost a couple of big ones but managed to get in the top 50 in a $1000 GTD and
won $20. I also secured $1 in another freeroll.
I would not be so pessimistic. Calling things an unrealistic dream, you forget about the meaning of the word "dream" itself. I love the expression that sounds: be afraid of your wishes; they tend to come true.
OP did not write any promises about the timing anywhere. But his one wish and his path to this dream, as well as a report on one topic, will be good entertainment for the viewers. There are no promises, disputes, or any other obligations. Therefore, OP, my thoughts are with you, and I wish you great luck and the fulfillment of your dream. Do not listen to bores who will dissuade you, because there is nothing more exciting than a goal that we happily achieve.
Wow! Thanks for the much-needed motivation. You presented my approach to this challenge in a clear-cut sense (I have to admit even I could not have presented it this well). The way you philosophize—I mean, I always get so much positivity from you (if you remember our previous conversation). Thanks a lot!
If this is what you consider starting from zero then your journey is long and unrealistic, what you are into is much like gambling even though the money is free however you tend to loose all your earning. I will suggest you learn from the forum, do DCA and be realistic with your dream. Bitcoins worth investing with your hard earn money. No one will give you an award of starting from zero with unrealistic dream.
To be sincere with you, there is no hope that you will make money from where you hope to catch out to purchase bitcoins, what happen before that made you loose $10 will definitely happen again. You did not tell us if what you got paid with is withdrawable or is just a demo account you are running.
I am trying to learn many things from this wonderful forum through wise and experienced members like you. Although I get the point, I will try harder. Regarding my starting point, I was indeed pondering many options like 0.001 to 1 BTC, 0.01 to 1 BTC, etc., but I thought it would be more interesting and relatable to the majority if I start with zero. BTW, you have a valid point here.
And about me losing $10 in winnings on the first day, it's just how poker works—you win some and you lose some—but if you make more right decisions, you will be in the green in the long term. So I will keep doing that until I reach a couple of hundred bucks.
The easiest, most convenient, and most effective way to obtain bitcoins is to buy them.
Gambling generally leads to a loss. You are unlikely to reach your goal through gambling.
Most shitcoins are scams. Investing in the ones that aren't is the same as gambling.
Trading is no better than gambling. Most traders lose all of their money.
If you are serious, your best plan is to earn money and use it to buy bitcoins.
Poker is not gambling; the same could be argued for well-researched investment opportunities like meme coins. I am not sure about your conceptual understanding of gambling, but mine says stay away from -ve and invest in +ve. Thanks for your insightful feedback. Stay tuned.
You should have stopped after winning the freeroll.
I don't want to shatter your dreams, but it's not the best patch to owning 1 BTC or any other respectable amount.
If you have a job, why not take a percentage of your salary and buy bitcoin with it?
I do and I am invested in crypto for a decent part my portfolio.
I really don't know what could go wrong with your plan - playing poker and investing in meme coins in order to one day have 1 BTC
Anything that can go wrong will go wrong, and at the worst possible time.' - Murphy's Law.
My only add-on is that it could also be said for 'right'.
Since your journey consists of gambling your way to 1 bitcoin, this topic seems more appropriate for the gambling board. Apart from that, I'm sorry to break it to you, but there's no way you'll ever acquire 1 bitcoin through gambling; that's approximately $70,000; have you considered how much money that is? You're way more likely to end up going into debt than actually earning any money. Currently, the best way to accumulate is by buying, and depending on your income, it will take quite a few years. I've personally accepted the fact that I'm unlikely to ever acquire a single coin, and I'm totally fine with that.
I agree; with
gambling, it will be too hard to achieve that. I wish I could find solace like you with my present financial condition.
Trying to get to 1 bitcoin by starting with poker freerolls is like starting by picking pennies off the ground.
At least it will be a wonderfully
grounded start.
go ahead and see the results after a month or two and see if you still have that enthusiastic spirit to go on and achieve this 1 btc. So, with that I'd say good luck to this plan of yours and keep us updated on how it'll go but I won't expect that there will be some good runs for the very first days.
Thanks for the best wishes
. I will definitely try my best to be consistent.
We would also need some Proof of work, POW, as you make progress, perhaps you might be unknowingly inspiring some of us here to take similar bold steps and be successful in the end, in any other ventures including cryptocurrency related.
I will be adding more graphs and screenshots later on as I will have more data. Thanks for the positive vibes.
upon checking on the other thread this guy is like a well skilled player
Haha, I consider myself a barely average player (who knows a thing or two about the game
). Thanks for following my other threads.
Anyway, good luck! You might be the first person I know to build up enough from free rolls and reach 1 BTC for investing. Wishing you all the success!
Thanks for such hopeful words.
When it reaches thousands of dollars what if you are addicted and the money has been earned so much that it is played and lost?
Gambling is like that... it will always be hot and want to play when there is a lot of money let alone get it for free.
Thank you for believing in me that I can achieve that level of success (thousands of dollars
). I've definitely experienced what you're describing in gambling. In fact, it's possible in any financial endeavor, but gambling accelerates the process significantly. Poker, trading (especially the kind I suggest), and gambling share a similar nature in this regard. That's why I'm here among wise and experienced people like you to navigate the challenges that would be difficult for someone with an average IQ like me.
Sorry for being somewhat rude but this is more like a fun post then a serious journey. The chances of you making it to 1 BTC from playing poker or gambling is 0%, yes, you heard it right. Good Luck though!
Not at all! I like it hard and rough
. Thanks for making a distinction between poker and gambling. Many people usually miss that.
Not just will OP find it difficult to make it as he outline but severe repercussion will be faced, some like addiction and quick losses, since he remains desperate for a win, this will intrigue him into going in full to be able to make huge wins and only cost him to return back at zero.
