Challenge Rush Poker an FTP

Hello guys,

I think about playing Rush Poker with Blinds of $0,5/$1 with a goal reaching earnings of 50k in one year.
I think this will be possible. Playing 5 hours a day (average) with 3 tables = 5.000 hands per day. Conservatice winrate will be 2 big blinds per 100 hands. So I win $100 per day + $65-$70 rakeback.

Does anybody has experiences playing Rush Poker constantly? Winrate? Rakeback? How do you think about my mind? would be interesting.

Sounds plausible and not a bad plan, but youve gotta handle the variance. And will you never move up?

RE: Challenge Rush Poker an FTP

correct,

i wanna start eith a bankroll of $5.000. I think this will be enough.
About moving up: I also played $1/$2. I think especially in Rush Poker this will be a big step because it will actually be the highest limit you can play there so the best player are in there. If FTP will create new (higher) levels, moving and beating this limit will be much easier. So it depends on this fact and my bankroll. Of course, moving up when you are a winning player on your limit is natural.

A guy on 2+2 won a prop bet in which he had to win 15k in a month at 100NL, and he ended up pretty much only playing Rush. With this said, 50k in a year definitely should be possible, especially since you can include rakeback and bonuses.

Best of luck!

3 tables times 5 hours is not close to 5K hands...

4 tables times 5 hours would be about 5,000 hands/day in average

My experience are 350 hands per table and hour!
That depends on you playing faster or not using the quick fold button so much.

Wanna give some experiences with starting the challenge. If you don´t wanna read it please go to the next post! BigGrin

(I have to say that I don´t have enough time playing 5 hours a day because I have a regular job and - of course - some friends, including a girlfriend!Wink

Startet on April 9th and played 27.000 hands of Rush-Poker $1 Full Ring with 1.050 hands per hour.

Winnings are about $1.150 --> 4,26 Big Blinds/100.
Also reaching $350 rakeback. (If anybody is interestet, rakeback is $0,013 per hand on this level).
In total $1.500 or $58 per hour.

I think its a good start and I feel comfortable.

If anybody is interestet in getting some updates let me know because I wanna share some experiences with other guys. Otherwise I stop posting.
