Heh i was feeling really lame when i was thinking i am winning like 40 dollars my first months of playing (but loosing all NDB on party - when i was playing there i didn't know what people mean talking about fish , there are only SSS or i get only on them... so annyoing , and when started i played to loose out there).
I estimate I have a positive balance each month of btween 100 and 200$, played on different sites and mostly in ring games and S&G's. But I'm not really building a bankroll, othwise I could probably end up with more and more as the months go by. I do MANAGE my bankroll though, but not to go and play higher stakes when I have increased it enough. Poker is still fun for me, and whenever my bankroll has grown enough to reach a goal I have set myself, I go out and buy something I had set my mind on, mostly things that are usefull for my mother who is getting old and has a low pension, so I play for things like a new washing machine and that sort of things, things she cannot afford (nor can I with my low invalidity income !). so playing poker is kind of an additional income for "extra's", but not in the sense of gagdets. I try and do usefull stuff with it. And every time I reach such a goal, I get a very happy face in return, and that's the best reward I can get from my games

Cosidering i am playing low buy-in SnG's and micro cash games, i am only going to low amounts of cash per month. But sometimes i manage to earn up to 5$ in a monthat this levels, when i play a bit more(about 30 hours in a month). In normal months i play just a couple of hours which is not enough to win a thing, because sometimes i win, but other times i also loose what i have won. It happens to the best
It depends on the month in my case... After my last tilt at Full Tilt I changed a lot of things including the way I play. I decided to get some decent coaching, read the books, etc. I can already see a progress. Excluding bonuses and rake back I make about $150 - $200 a month playing only from time to time (I have other job which unfortunately is a full time one).

i think i win 10-60$ per month, last few months have been on lower side as i'm finding less time to play. its not much but i'm still young and my main objective is to learn the game well before i get my hands dirty

Up and down, up and down.
These past few months have been extremely swingy for me so I couldn't give you an accurate figure. I think it may actually be negative without rake back and reload bonuses, which is pretty s**t.

I make 30000$ a month. I go to live cashgames when the party is over and rob the winner. I always win!

No, the best keep winning (more than they are losing). If you play 30 hours a month and only win 5$, you are the worst player ever (jk, not worst ever, but pretty bad).

You are always bragging, so much that I don't even believe you (funny, cause I did earlier), luckily it's not about me believing you. Do you have a job?
