Anyone building up bank roll from 888Poker's Blast?

You always have to vary, but I think that if you have a worked, solid and winning strategy over time you will see results, so far you are doing very well.
 
This poker format is most similar to a casino: a lot depends on your luck.Blast poker is a good opportunity to test your luck and quickly win big money in the poker room.

It seems I have played around 1000 matches so far. I climbed up by starting from 10c, 1$, 2$, 5$... and slowly building up. I somehow still feels like I can continue, but it seems no one believe that it is possible to keep this going. I think I may change game if I drop to 200$ below

This is indeed very impressive, but there is still big variance over 1.000 games, especially if you were not using proper bankroll management. If you take $10 into a casino and play roulette, you will also sometimes be able to run it up to $400, but this does not mean, you have found a way to beat roulette, or that you now have a "bankroll" for playing roulette.

I kind of gave you the answer to that already, since no such players pop up on the sharkscope leaderboard. I encourage you to check this out for yourself and see, which games the biggest SnG winners actually play. You see this by clicking on the player and then the "breakdown" meny point, the latter being a subscriber only feature. But you can just pay for 1 month of the cheapest subscription. Its $12 for a month, which is a very small investment, if it can help you make more informed decisions about your future poker journey 🙂

Sometimes I play blast, but sometimes it seems to me that it is roulette. More like multi-table tournaments

Normal spins are not complete bingo. They leave room for play and are beatable in the long run. I actually really started to like them the last few months.

But i agree Blast is like Bingo. But even there u need to know shoving and calling ranges for very shallow stacks.

I play them every now and then. They have accounted for a large part of my bank roll. Not intentionally mind you. The blast screen has click through problems. I’ve registered for a $1 and a $5 and clicked through and also registered for a $30 and $50 at the same time. It’s kind of a shock when it happens if you take BR management seriously. Thankfully I won both times. Think it was x 3 both times.

I am quite a casual noob player who is mostly playing online time to time
I've started from 25$, currently 400$ purely playing blast so far.
But if I search online, there isn't much people who is playing only blast and they says it's pure gambling.
Is it really?
Anyone who is doing well only playing in blast?

I play Blast tournaments on occasion, but mostly with free tickets.

As others have said. These games are more luck than skill. If you get the right cards at the right time you are guaranteed to win. If not you will lose. You can run good for a time then you'll run bad.

Even the 888Poker Pros have a terrible win rate in Blast. That would indicate that the top players 888Poker has can not even achieve a decent win rate in this format.
 
Hi
Blast is just another type of lottery. No more and no less. But if you have good results, then you are lucky and you need to keep doing what increases your bankroll.
 
blast games are not meant for serious games it is designed so that those with a lot of money can lose it fast


The odds of victory are as uncertain as they are enticing
 
My least favorite format is 888, there's no poker for 0.10 and $1 at all, it's just a casino, players will go all-in with you for any 2 or any 2 cards and they don't care about the chances of winning, they rely mostly on luck, like roulette,
 
dont expect any form of poker from the blasts, even at the 5 10 dollar stakes theres alot of pre shoving all ins.I have only played a few of the 20 50 and 100 but not enough to know how they play on those stakes, but usually its aggresive on all the blasts
