To serious poker players this isn’t much, but to someone who’s taking their game serious from this year on, this is awesome! I have never achieved Silver Star status in the past, due to mostly not having enough volume or going busto. But this year neither happened, I put in the volume this month, and I showed a profit. I haven’t been on any kind of heater, just learning more and improving my game, so that’s what this means for me on a personal level. But with this, I have gained an itch; I want to see how high I can grind up the VIP ladder. Even hopefully trying for SNE (Supernova Elite Status) next year (depending on how well this year ends).
I never realized just how lucrative Star’s VIP system (http://www.pokerstars.com/vip/) really is in the past, till now. And now I realize there is lots to be made just by putting in the time and effort regarding volume. If I can play break even poker for a year and grind to SNE I can earn six-figures for that year...surely time will tell. But this is a happy day for me. Now the next step is grinding to Gold Star Status in April, which is the month of my Spring Break! So I’ll have that week next month to put in some serious volume, so it’s definitely obtainable!
I’m stoked!
