Posted by MANUEDO: I voted for a small loss- But I never deposited: I played BRM bonuses only and some freerolls. Now I will play some points earned here
If you have never deposited then id say you can not be in the red, you started with $0 now at $0 (at a guess) total loss $0.

Let's say you are equal. when I started playing poker about 4 years ago won often small amounts of $. in last year, from what I attend forums strategies I can not even win, I lost everything I had earned over time. l contagious influence

Posted by GeneYuss: I have just over $5000 from $0. I'm on a $0 to $10k challenge but I quit sometimes for 2 months.
$5K wow nice GeneYuss Now 10K, play SNG or CASH?
I think cash, right now I'm playing 3-4 tables of NL 6-max. I enjoy sng more but I think I can make more money in cash game. 11k+ is pretty nice! Have you thought about playing cash game? And have you thought about playing at Pokerstars?

Nah i dont feel confident at cash-game so not planning it yet. And yes in future i am planning to go too PS but first my plan is to build my BR too 20K (PKR) hopefully end off this year then move too PS.
At PS i am not sure wot to play, or turbo $20 DoN SNG, or $10/$20 regular 10seater, or $10/$20 turbo MTT (45 players) I am not really thinking off moving up too higher stakes like $50, when i play at PS yes i try to move higher in stakes, but all with small steps
I keep the records of my all deposit, current bankrolls and withdrawals. Currently I have a small overall profit of about $120. I'm 100% amateur so I don't expect to earn huge money playing poker but I'm slowly moving forward.

$20k would be nice. I am having a hard time to choose the game I like too. I first started playing regualr sngs on Pokerstars, then DoNs and now I play cash game. I somewhat like cash game now and I can play 7-8 hours without it feeling like a grind.
Are you using a poker program to track opponents? ..$50 sngs is pretty high stakes. I just watched someone on youtube playing 72 $20 DoNs on Pokerstars. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYUQIzx_QMo

Funny question, the answer changes overtime. Evry1 that starts playing poker start by liking the game and then they get lucky get a good streak and end up having like 400-500$ up and then they lose it all. After that most ppl feel like they could win it bak and start dumping out more and more money out. Then there is those smart players that learn the game properly and play properly and start getting good and takes a little while to get back to even. At 1 point u start climbing up limits and all the money u loss is irrevelant to the money u win at the higher stakes.
