Finally!!! I made it. The surgery certainly made this a bit more challenging. Not to mention I’m doing other poker related work that needs to be finished up before Jan 4th, so I’ve been pretty busy. I’m ending the year with 100,001 VPPs. I purchased my $800 bonus, and now have glorious red status stars instead of the boring platinum color which I’ve had for a long time. WOO HOO!!!
In December, I earned 28,691.39 VPPs. Whew. That’s 168,730 hands in 153.18 hours. Whew. The hardest part is that I have been running badly. I think out of the 7 times I got all-in preflop today with pair over pair, I lost 6 of them. Ugh. You definitely see more of this when you play more hands, but lately the odds are running a little short for me lately. Hopefully 2010 will be better!
Congrats! I’m curious…it looks like there’s one more level above supernova? (I see one more empty star.) What level is that? What could possibly be bigger than a supernova? And do you basically have to play 20 poker tables 24/7/365 to get to that level?
Yep, it’s Supernova Elite. There’s a chance I will go for that next year. If you notice I earned almost 30k VPPs in December alone so my earning wasn’t spaced out very well for the year (on purpose though). Supernova Elite is earning 1 million VPPs. I’d need to play higher stakes where I earn faster, but that’s in the works.
