Jason (J-Lit) – Micros Fish to High Stake Mastermind
Hey everyone! My name is Jason, I’m 27 years old, and am located in the USA!
After attending college in Reno, NV, and putting the hurt on those 1/2 tables full of old retirees in my spare time, I packed my poker career dreams away and started working diligently at my current job over the past few years to rid myself of debts leftover from college. Now debt-free and understanding the pains of not loving what you do for a living, I am revisiting poker to look to relieve myself of 2 major pains that stem from my current career: A lack of passion/motivation & a lack of control over my daily life and growth.
The opportunity presented in today’s poker environment by the game of Pot-Limit Omaha and displayed in countless youtube videos and streams from the talented players running this mastermind has not only inspired me to pursue my passion for poker, entrepreneurship, and independence but has pushed me to the realization that success in poker is still very much possible for anyone with a sickening work ethic looking to make it happen.
My Goals:
- Pass my CFP Exam for my current job to free up my time outside of required work hours for poker, passions, fun, & relationships.
- Establish a deeper, elite understanding of the game of Pot-Limit Omaha
- Work to being a Low Stakes Break-Even to Winning Player on High Rake, American Sites
- Have injected 300 hours of study & training into my game by the end of 2021
- Play at least 50 hours by end of 2021
- Be ready with a strong foundation to take on 2022
- Focus first on short stack strategy to protect my bankroll and potentially scale quicker at first
Milestones & Actions
Study & practice off the tables a minimum of 8 hours per week throughout 2022. Prioritize study hours over play if available time outside of work is tight.
- Become a 5bb/100 winner on American Sites at PLO50, minimum 30,000 hands
- Crush PLO50 as a 7bb/100+ winner, minimum of 50,000 hands played
- Take proper shots to move up to PLO100 (short stack) and become a winning player at PLO100, minimum 100,000 hands played at PLO100 before moving up.
- Move up to PLO200 (short stack) and become a winning player at PLO200, minimum 100,000 hands played at PLO200
- Build bankroll to be able to safely buy-in for full 100bb stacks at PLO100 and shift focus to full-stack strategy.
- Build bankroll as a winning player at PLO100 (Full 100bb Stack) to be able to safely move to PLO200 (Full 100bb Stack)
- Understand which strategy I am better at and refocus on my shortcomings.
Major Goal:
Be properly rolled to move up to PLO500 ($30,000 short stack, $75,000 Full Stack) and reassess goals from there. Crush local 5-100 live spread limit Omaha game filled with lots of gamblers.
To be properly rolled for any stake, I will need 150 – 200 buy-ins to feel comfortable. I may reduce this number as my confidence and belief in my ability increases, but is never to fall below 70 buy-ins or I will move down.
My hope is for this journey to not only impact my poker ability & finances but my mindset and confidence in myself to be and do something different; leading me to a happier and more exciting future. 🏆💵😃
