I lost 120m from my peak on the poker tables, and did not want to touch my stock blocks, so I decided to start the poker ladder!!

Stage 1: Noobie Corner- Gatlin Gun
I do not care about busting in the early stages, so I started in Hobo Holdem (Noobie corner table was full).
Hobo Holdem
1 day played
$48,897/ day played
136 hands played
With a 5000$ max buy in, players are prone to calling eradically, so I shoved a lot preflop, and bet massively when I hit.
Like this
01:48:14 - 10/09/26 You raised to $71,608 going all in on Poker with the cards Ac,6d
01:48:22 - 10/09/26 You lost on Poker with the cards Ac,6d,5h,7c,9c,Qd,2s vs 9s,7h,5h,7c,9c,Qd,2s
Tough luck I guess, but it is bound to happen when shoving preflop a lot.
When I got 50k, enough for min buy in at Gatlin Gun, I moved up. All the tables were empty between (50k min) Gatlin Gun, and (2k starting cash) Hobo Holdem. Staying at Hobo Holdem to grind more to get more cash before moving up would be a waste, as I do not care about busting.
While I was climbing up, I saw a few people on E-asy Street, and played a few hands, profiting 77,745$ (the stats were inaccurate on torn.report)
Also, began playing more speculative hands, hoping to hit, as if I hit I will get paid off big as people never fold. Like
23:15:03 - 10/09/26 You won $34,376 on Poker with the cards 8d,10s,2h,10c,8c,Jc,10h
23:15:24 - 10/09/26 You won $8,020 on Poker with the cards 6d,9d,8s,7d,10d,4d,6c
Then, I arrived at Gatlin Gun! Here, I raise preflop massively with good hands, going all in on the better side, as people call with basically anything. Like
23:43:22 - 10/09/26 You raised to $24,500 going all in on Poker with the cards 9d,9s
00:59:02 - 11/09/26 You raised to $25,000 on Poker with the cards 5s,5c
(This one was probably not a good raise, should have limped in and prayed I hit a set as it is a lower pocket pair.)
01:13:36 - 11/09/26 You raised to $35,000 on Poker with the cards Ac,5c
Then, towards the end of my run, I realized that I could limp into the pot with basically anything, and bet massively if I hit 2 pair of better, and take the entirety of my opponents stacks, as they are never folding. IM A FISHHHHHHHHHHH splish splash
00:49:39 - 14/09/26 You won $1,523,744 on Poker with the cards 2c,9s,10s,2s,9c,Jh,2h
23:53:59 - 13/09/26 You won $801,000 on Poker with the cards 3c,Qc,Qh,Qd,9h,Kd,3d
(Errr someone else had a queen and I rivered a Full house to beat them, lucky me - this why you should not be a fish against thinking opponents)
01:59:27 - 14/09/26 You won $754,000 on Poker with the cards 7d,Qs,Qh,7h,6c,Kc,2d
I rarely bluffed, as these opponents are incapable of folding. Only bluffing specific opponents that have shown they are capable of folding.
Final Gatlin Gun stats:
Gatling Gun
+$7,778,993
4 days played
$1,944,748/ day played
567 hands played
Ended up with $7,881,738 after 15 hours of play
Overdue to move up in stakes :p
I shall be playing with bankroll management in mind, would not want to bust at this stage :)
