Weekly Bankroll Update 6/3-6/9

Not too much to recap from last week other than the fact that Global finally credited my account for the pictures I sent in. I played the Daily Bonanza seven times cashing twice and that was about it. Here are my numeric digits:

Play Money: 7,093,000 Up 701,000

Real Money: $820.11 Up $41.63

Target for next Cash Game level: $1,000 ($50)

Target for next SnG level: $1,100 ($55)

Target for next MTT level: $1,100 ($22)

This week will be shortened by school and personal obligations, but the home game is Wednesday night and that'll be my chance to boost my roll a bit. I'm just $180 away from my next target and I need all the help I can get. I'm staying conservative and banking cash till I get there and then things start to get very interesting. I've already begun formulating a strategy for when I pass the $1,000 marker, and I'm ready to carry it out when that happens. I won't go into details just yet, but I'll be playing a lot more, that much I can tell you.

As a side note, I just wanted to briefly touch upon something that's happening in the poker world right now that I think any fan of the game should be aware of. Poker pro Justin Bonomo is having an amazing 2018. He's earned something like $14.5 million already and we are only one week into the WSOP and not even halfway through the year. What he's been able to accomplish is nothing short of extraordinary. He's won nine tournaments already with three of them being over $1 million, and two of those three being over $4 million. I think what's really impressive is that in his most recent win, the $10,000 No-Limit Heads-Up Championship at the WSOP, he defeated seven opponents heads-up. That alone is impressive, but the fact that he also won his last eight heads-up matches coming into the tournament makes it even more impressive. So basically, the last 15 times he's been heads-up he's been victorious. To say he's on a "heater" doesn't do this run justice. We will have to come up with another word to describe what he's doing right now. I can't wait to see how the WSOP plays out for him, and the way he's running right now should make the Main Event very fun to watch! Keep it up Justin!
