Kev! I've been subbed for so long and I'm a micro grinder on ACR. I've seen you win so many huge scores and feel like I know you. Don't want to put my email in yet. Hoping to win and get that stack to 5k myself to continue the legacy! Cheers my friend!

Brilliant series, tuned in every day. Thank you for putting yourself through this mentally and physically. Will be here for the long run! Take care of yourself. 🎉

Truly the content creator we all deserve. This challenge has been truly inspiring, not only in grinding the microstakes but also enjoying the hustle in life. Keep doing what you're doing man. Hoping for more positive energy and good things for you!

This series is an absolute nuts! 21 days of grinding from zero to hero! Thank you for sharing this poker journey with us, it's truly appreciated! Can't wait to see more from your channel. Keep up the fantastic work! 👏👍

As someone who tried to grind poker from 0 multiple times but failed,seeing you try this challenge as well has been very inspiring

Man that was a good run 500 if I played for 500 hours I would have lost 100k love the videos.

Better than average player and still only making about 3 dollars an hour in the grind, shows how brutal poker can be.

$3 an hour doesn’t mean anything when not mentioning the stakes. He’s making that much in basically micros, which is damn good

hes not really playing just micros. He has played multiple 50$ tournaments in this challenge and a ton of 20$+ tourneys. I think 20 are considered small stakes but maybe micros. 50$ is definitely not micros@@777shacob8

It's because tournament poker is very very high in variance...he would have done much better if he focused on cash games

I’ve followed every video from this series, it is really amazing to see how determined you are. I think so many people liked this series, is because it is such phantasy for so many people to spin everything up from 0.

Thanks for this crazy series. It was definitely an emotional roller coaster watching every day. Looking forward to whatever you take on next!

The fact that you streamed 500 hours is a W to me. Playing that much poker in real time with the stream always going had to be a challenge itself. You continued to push forward even when variance was pushing back and carried yourself very professionally. Job well done..

Every other video he’s made has 50-200 comments here we have over 2000 😂 someone paid to drown out all the actual comments about what a joke this “challenge” turned into.

Thank you for this amazing series! Incredible effort and discipline and can’t wait to watch whatever challenge you take on next!

Congrats man, 500 hours straight streaming is nuts. Let alone sharing all the ups and downs of the low budget grind. Loved every episode!

Do this again without a time bracket please Kevin this has been so fun to watch every day

When is the apology video coming out for backing out of the challenge, its been 3 weeks Mr Kmart

You're a victim.

You and your crew just completely reinvigorated my 🔥 for poker. This has been so much fun to watch. Definitely taxing on you. Thank you all for giving so much of yourself to this challenge. At 1 point in our lives we were all doing this!

What an incredible series, watched it from start to end! I was actually sad there was a day you took off that I couldn't watch a recap of, haha. Anyways, thanks for this incredible story and thanks for reigniting my passion for poker. Not many online options here in Florida but you got me back into it. Cheers!

What a ride man, was a rollercoaster watching along across these last few weeks. I’ve really valued your openness and willingness to share the emotional parts of the journey, and it’s been great to see the attention grow during the stream - can’t wait for your future successes. Favourite poker content creator right now, keep it up Kevin 😁

This has been the best poker series I have ever seen, many players have shown us the other side of poker and that you can really win doing this (I know you didn't complete the challenge but you did your best), so thank you since this series helped me motivate myself and grow my bankroll little by little.

Congratulations on wrapping up such an incredible journey with Poker from Zero! Your dedication and hard work shine through in every episode, and it's been a joy to witness your passion come to life on screen. Thank you for sharing this unforgettable experience with us all. Enjoy your well-deserved break and soak up that fresh air - you've earned it! 💙👏

Are we watching the same series? As someone who has always watched Kmart for his positive vibes and perceived hard work and perseverance, I'm questioning whether it was all an act ? Anyone can be happy and positive when things go well, but it's the true strongest who can still keep going when things don't go as expected and keep trucking along to really go after what you want. This series just shows a very weak mental that gives up at the first sign of resistance or push back. Grinding at micro stakes is a long journey and grind... and you can't expect to make it fast while having slightly above average skill level. A reasonable 0-$5k challenge playing nothing but microstake MTTs is probably closers to 3-5k hours, not 500 and that's if you are a TOP NOTCH player. Being average you should have not put such unrealistic and high expectations for yourself as it's a reality check that can have devastating effects on your ego.

Insane run! Ive really loved watching this series, thank you for doing it :) I really enjoying hearing your thought process through the days. Im relatively new to poker and playing in the micros and a home game, so far in the net positive but the wins and losses can be hard to balance mentally. Youve given me perspective about how to look at it overall and i appreciate that. Looking forward to your future content :)

Loved the series. Well played and even more really well entertained! Even got me into poker again. Learned alot. havent watched you before so looking forward to the next project, ill be there.

Coolest poker series I've seen on KZread. I thought game of gold upped the stakes, but this hooked me even more because of how well you told the story and how willing you were to explain your moves. Cool journey to watch!

Congratulations on playing poker from zero for 20 consecutive days starting from scratch! Your dedication and commitment are truly inspiring. You've shown incredible perseverance and determination, and it's amazing to see your progress. Your journey has motivated me to pursue poker further, and I'm eager to learn more about the game before diving into this endeavor myself. Keep up the fantastic work, and may your passion for poker continue to fuel your next success!

Congrats on grinding through the challenge, I love watching your videos to help me learn. Keep up the good work man!!

Thanks for taking us along the journey! Loved watching! Keep making great content!!

Love the work you put in on this series. As a microstakes grinder myself (1.5 years in), it’s enjoyable yet relatable to see a high(er) stakes crusher experience the peaks and valleys of these games.

its always tough for me to move down in stakes while i running bad.. but watching a pro having to deal with it also really gives me strength to know im not alone in what happens. it really does happen to us all. the margins are so small. thanks for the endless lessons Kmart!

Hey Kev, no matter the result ,you are def have won ! The content you made made 1000's of people happy every day and made them looking forward to see the next episode every day! It was and still is such a pleasure to see you doing your thing the way you do it ! A real inspiration to many ! Thanks man ! Much love !

Wow, what an incredible journey it's been! From the highs to the lows, you've navigated every twist and turn with grace and determination. As this adventure comes to a close, take a moment to reflect on all the memories made, lessons learned, and challenges overcome. Your resilience and tenacity have truly been inspiring to witness. Here's to closing this chapter with pride and excitement for all the amazing things that lie ahead. Cheers to you and your incredible journey! ✨

Very nice series, it is amazing to watch you keep your cool after constant bad beats, I will be honest, me as a poker player as well, one thing I find struggling the most is to always keep your cool after the bad beats. Love from Canada as well, keep up the good work k-mart!

It was quite fun :) thx for making those videos and taking us on this journey. Really enjoyed it. I have to say though, that you didn't make your bed in the morning bugged me much more then it should have. Pretty sure that and only that was the real reason for not completing the challenge. 😁 Keep making great content! Thx

Loved this series thanks for all you did man. Look forward to what you’ve got planned next

You are one of my favorite people and creators. My love for Big Brother has only gotten stronger from watching your gaming journey and I want to thank you for making this project. Keep killing it because I’ll be following you from start to finish! 😄👏🏻

I love how you as a high stakes pro went back to the micro's and grinded it out. I have a passion for poker, I have studied and took my shots. I was a break even player at best and one night decided to play my bankroll. It did not play out like I wanted. To see a pro struggle with your expertise in the game was so refreshing. Thank you for sharing your 500 hours with us. This was amazing to watch!

Been watching every day! ❤ this series was amazing K! Thank you 🙏 you motivate me to do my best ✌🏽

Man this was a sick series, everyday getting home and binging these episodes, sucks to see it end like this. keep the grind going!!!

Loved the series! The micros reminds me of my buddy and I playing while watching you stream all the way back in 2017. Great times and great content as always!

All the emotions that we've been able to experience through this grind has been incredible. To show the hope and the pain, the highs and the lows of micro stakes poker so viscerally makes this one of the greatest bits of content you could possibly create. Thanks @kmart poker!

It certainly validates the feelings I had when playing micros years ago. I always seemed to do better at mid-range and up. I’m glad I was able to see how this all went down, and I kept on cheering for that big win.

That was an incredible challenge and great content. Thanks for sticking to it through all the bad beats and run bad. It was exciting through and through. Can't wait to see what you have next.

You are litteraly the only guy to showing us the reality of poker not only the wins but Also the losses and how hard can be some times to even get out with at least 20$ profit After 8 hours . Much respect for you and thank you again for taking almost a month of your Life to teach and entertain US ❤️

It was a great challenge! I enjoyed every minute of it. I was actually sad when I saw it will end, but I guess it’s very hard and demanding also from the video editing perspective to keep this rhythm. GG sir, I like your energy 💪🏼

You simply proved to be a beast. This challenge not only shows how difficult it is to live in the world of poker, but that even highly prestigious people are not in that position because they are lucky. You have made me realize that poker is not only about making money, it is something that I have fun and enjoy, getting together with your friends and laughing unconditionally while playing poker is a new experience that I have had recently and I would recommend it to anyone who likes poker . Thank you for showing us the reality first hand!♥

Has a part time player these days, I did learn a lot from watching up to date streamer, studying and playing myself. Thanks for sharing this with the world, keep a positive attitude and stay yourself. All the best 💚

Kmart I restarted my own poker journey on GG after years of not playing, when i saw your first vids, i got inspired spun it up from 40T$ to 430$ but just like u hit a brick wall and hovering around 200$ atm, i will continue your challenge until i can maybe one day play against you or bust haha good luck to both of us

loved the journey kev, spent all that time grinding just to give it away , shows your passion for the game. glad i found this channel right when this started.

That's brutal bro, hope you recover quickly, been here since day 1

Always love your content. It was very entertaining following you throughout this amazing series. Congrats! on acheiving your 500 Hr Challenge. I really appreciate your commitment and hard work to show us the ins and outs playing this beautiful game of poker. Looking forward to following your future endeavors.

It was amazing to see you playing lower tournaments, a lot to learn from you. You and the crew put on an amazing show, well done!

i watched every episode of this series, i learned alot while watching you play micro stake , the stake that i'm currently playing in. You've made a amazing series, and congratz for 100k Sub. Always support from Vietnam with love

Great series, Sir. The content was good, the play was good, and a great reminder to the world that it’s tough to make a living in the poker streets. Congrats to you and your team on executing a fun idea. Be well.

Dude thank you for the experience, it was a journey, a rollercoaster and it was a blast to ride. I can’t believe how many times that you got it in good and lost really quite crazy!

Kevin we already want more! I appreciate the hand play and your talk thought of hands. Helping me to become better!

Poker from Zero was truly a great experience to witness especially in the Ontario streets. Watching the grind every single day brought me back to online poker and even got me to play my first live tournament at the wsop toronto series. Although the challenge may have failed, thank you for the endless entertainment and continue pushing the boundaries for Poker content.

This journey really shows what small stakes poker is like. A 500 hour stream is a crazy achievement. Keep it up!

Loved the series. Can't wait to see the content you'll have in the future!

honestly watching the whole series .. you won 100% !! the vibe! the energy that the videos kept ! i was invested ngl .. and the harsh reality almost feels like a fairytale ending in the sense of ; sometimes you might not hit your goal on the mark but regardless you’re gonna work towards it (the grind) and that is where the character development & stories get built .. which in turn mold you into the either “good player” or “risky player” . & that’s what’s inspires a good story

Hi Kev, watched the whole series a little gutted that you stopped at the 500hr mark but happy overall with the show. Been trying to grind full time since the new year 5 timed per week and can relate to the ups and downs of it all :) Good luck thanks for the inspiration and for showing us that the grind is real and normal :)

I love the content you made in the series. That was incredible you did. Thank you for doing this challenge that activates me to have more passion for poker!!!

I think ya should of stuck with it and grinded until 5k. You used this challenge to reboot your streaming outlets, the least ya could of done is seen it through. I kinda feel used which is crazy lol.

I've been watching you live for most of the challenge and it's been so nice to see you doing your best at this levels. I really believed and hopped you finish with 5k profit, as I'm trying myself to win at the low-mid stakes. I think you did a great job with this challenge and will inspire many people. Waiting for you to go live again! Best of luck!💜

crazy bad luck in so many spots. Ive thought about playing poker for a living but watching you and brad owen has showed me to just keep it as a side passion where i can play for fun and make a few grand a year. Fun to watch this journey for you.

The most epic Kmart blue light special I’ve ever seen, but definitely watch the whole series again if you ever did, it loved every minute of it

Great series, re-ignited my passion for the game and learnt some moves on the way! Thanks to your team for the content!

I have done such a challenge to myself more than once. I just extended the deadline for myself. I appreciate it all the more to show it live.

It was cool! Thanks for the show! It was interesting to wait for your daily progress report. You showed by example that even a professional in his field cannot always win everything, this is life and it should be accepted as it is. Good luck in the future!

Hey my W streamer! Super stoked you made it through the challenge. You've been my inspiration ever since I started dabbling in poker back in my 1st year of uni, and now here I am, wrapping up my final project. I started off like you, from freerolls and daily freebies, and now I've got a bankroll of $102. Your streams always remind me that poker can be tough, but it's all about staying focused and consistent. Keep doing your thing and inspiring us aspiring poker players, Kev! Sending love from Indonesia.

This journey has been amazing to watch, enjoyed every moment of it. Learned a lot and grew my love for poker!

When I get a bad run I can barely play out the tables I have going. Your ability to push through is really impressive. Congratz on not going crazy and ty for the show!

What an insane challenge. Had fun playing against you in the micros. Keep up the good work the content was great!

Great job , it was a pleasure to watch, you inspired a lot of people and it was great for me to see playing lower stakes . Keep up the good work with the channel ::D

Loved this series, really shows how difficult it is to spin it up, but it also shows how you should never give up and try and make the profitable plays

Watched since Day One and loved the series. You still did an Amazing Job my man.

Thanks for the series, can't wait for the next one !

Love the series, Kevin. Really proud of what you did! Have been watching the channel since the early days, and your energy is always amazing, even when the cards run tough! During the streams, you talked about possibly doing a "sequel" of sorts to this challenge. I've always enjoyed your content as edutainment, educational AND fun! Maybe the follow-up could be some kind of series where you help/train a recreational/losing fan of yours! Could be neat, and it'd be really beneficial to get your insight on how someone could improve their game! Regardless, best of luck and I'll keep watching either way!

GG kev, I watched you almost every single day and I believed in you the whole way through. I hope there is a part 2 so that I can watch every day again.

Unlucky, brother. What an amazing project! Shout out to your team too. I enjoyed watching it all. I just got back into playing poker after a few years’ break. I learned to play at university and started playing in the local casino free rolls and online. I fell out of love with it, but then came across your project. Now I’m back playing at my local £10 tournament haha. I’m loving being back and studying the game again. Can’t wait to see your next project. Take it easy, man.

when I first saw your videos I think it wasn't that original and now you're the only poker channel I watch. Way to go!

Great video Kev, just caught up on all the episodes. Some of the best KZread content I’ve watched in a while

I enjoyed watching your journey. You showed how starting from zero is fun and tiring at the same time. GL!

The best part of this series for me was just seeing your unlimited enthusiasm for the game, even if it's just a 3 dollar tournament.

Great series. Amazing way to showcase the grind. Best of luck in the future.

Was a blast to watch you on stream for this challenge. Great job!! 🎉

In a weird way this was encouraging to watch. Watching a better than average player experience the brutal reality that is variance (especially in tourneys) just demonstrates how tough it is to grind out a profit online.

Absolutely loved the series man, huge respect to you

I've been doing this challenge for about 2 years :). Anyway, it was great fun to accompany this journey. I hope new challenges come in with different formats.

Wow this challenge really shows how hard it is to win/make a living from poker. Such a sick game but that’s why we all love it so much. Good reminder at the end to just play for fun on the side and take care of your money. I shouldn’t be playing if a loss will greatly impact my mood and bankroll. Awesome challenge!

Loved the content and effort from you and the team. Congrats on a great series!

I watched every episode and I must say I would have lost my mind before I could get to 500 hours like you lol. Great effort and endurance from your side!! Props to you and much love from Germany.

Lovely series mate, dont be discouraged that you didnt achieve your goal you showed the harsh reality to a lot of us wannabe poker pros and showed everyone else how hard poker can be!

Awesome content! Keep up the great work! Tough challenge and nice to see that even a professional would struggle to start from zero.

Good work throughout these past weeks! Enjoyed watching it all!

I hadn't been familiar with you channel prior to this challenges, I'm so glad I found it. I really enjoyed the uniqueness of it all 100% fun time!🔥🔥

I found this channel through this series and I enjoyed every bit of it. You're very easy to listen to 👌

Learned a lot about bankroll management from this series. I think every poker player wanting to go pro needs to watch this and smell the roses 🙃

It was a great series Kevin. I also learned a lot for my own (casual) pokersessions. Keep up the gokd work!

Hell yeah man I’m a brand new fresh player and watching this challenge everyday was something else bro. Will deffo be following your career and hopefully starting one of my own with this inspiration

Beautiful way to end with authenticity and honesty. Even when you lose you win. Thanks for the content.

Nice series Kevin, watched every video and enjoyed every second of it! keep killing it!

I enjoyed your commentary and hand break downs thank you and I look forward to your next project.
