Here we go! 🔥 @WSOP 28 Bankroll challenge. Aim is to try and win enough to cover my poker buy ins for my trip to Vegas / WSOP 2028.

I have decided to up my stakes which hopefully is not a bad idea and this time I am splitting the bankroll between @GGPoker and @PokerStars

The aim is to play at least 1000 MTT’s between now and June 2028 with stakes between $5.50 and $33 with a $3000 bankroll. 🙏 😬

@jjohnto22 Very hard way to make a living.

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

Nearly made my first final table on @CoinPoker_OFF last night but fell one place short. It’s coming I can feel it. Will not be playing this weekend apart from the $215 Million satellites.

@abbypoker_ Abby do you keep records of how many tournament buy ins you have blown through over the years?

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

@0xTimB1 @abbypoker_ Sadly a reaction of a gambler losing again. That’s all she is. Somehow has a popular You Tube channel but just blows all of her revenue and sponsors money in these games. She will look back in years to come and realise the opportunity that she had a blew.

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

Her and Corey have been blessed with huge opportunities due to the popularity of their channels and social media. They have free rolled major tournaments consistently over the past few years and have just blown through all the buy ins and have very little to show for it. They have wasted opportunities that people would kill for but they are just bad poker players pretending to be professionals.

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

@talkSPORT Exactly who are these really good players they are going to bring in?

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

@DillDall @CoinPoker_OFF Thanks D Money can’t wait until the next Vegas trip.

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

@Mrjamieohara1 Whatever O’Hara you were a bang average playera and now stealing a living on the radio/ crying about Spurs 😭

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

@JonnyVwins @CoinPoker_OFF Nice I will look out for you but I only play MTT.

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

@PropBetsX @jjohnto22 I had some awesome wins back in day on 2UP’s. Where are you located in London, I know of a great matched betting opportunity if you don’t mind APing and underlaying stuff?

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

Of course I know everyone knows these beats happen it’s just a way for me to moan and show people this shit happens and also my missus just looks at me blankly and says it’s all rigged , lol

I don’t really have a target audience. I just post as a way to stay accountable and have fun and if people want to follow along and they enjoy it then that’s fine. Like I say I play for fun and don’t study. Maybe one day I will, next video I will try to post me giving someone a bad beat instead.

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

Haha after my last Aces hand on @CoinPoker_OFF I took everyone’s advice and raised. I am so glad I do not do this poker lark for a living and just play for fun. It is just full on relentless now and how they get lucky time after time is beyond. It’s going to turn soon. How I’m only a few hundred down is testament to my bankroll management. Onto the next one. 🤦

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

@ThisCuteAznGuy @CoinPoker_OFF Why not? It’s only a bit of fun. You never know I might become the next Coin Poker sponsored pro and be playing a full WSOP / Triton schedule. 😂

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

@PropBetsX @jjohnto22 Nice start. I used to love matched betting so much, I took a year off work to do it full time as a loophole I found required so much time (I will share it at some point) it’s such a shame it died off you could make a grand every month pretty much risk free from 1 set of accounts.

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

@Gaijin_Han @CoinPoker_OFF Fingers crossed.

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

Thank you I appreciate your point of view but maybe I’m just posting these so that other people that might be silently following/ playing can see that these beats happen.

Yes some of my plays maybe trivial but showing someone putting me all in KJ off and getting lucky is hardly a trivial play on my part and before you spend your time posting why he made that play, I know why he made that play.

I post these videos for a bit fun and I am not a professional player. I suggest if they are annoying you, you are always welcome to block me so you won’t see my posts anymore.

Have a nice weekend.

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

@PropBetsX @jjohnto22 That’s awesome I look forward to seeing your progress.

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

@jjohnto22 Nice all I would say is set a bankroll and stick to it and try and have fun. I like to keep records of how I do so you can see your progress. Good luck and keep us updated.

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

COYI

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

@EliranMTA @WSOP @CoinPoker_OFF It was a real shame but I won’t be clicking on any other dodgy links to podcasts, lol. Thanks for following.

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

Grinding a very rare Friday night for the @WSOP bankroll challenge on @CoinPoker_OFF. I am really hoping this losing run comes to an end soon as it’s just getting silly but confidence is high so let’s print. 🤣

[James Eglinton @RealEggy0886]

@MikeWat43058155 @CoinPoker_OFF I’m just sharing my journey and results and showing what happens over a long period.

Don’t need anymore hobbies, and arts and crafts really is not my sort of thing. I will stick with the poker.
