It was a great year 2010 for me! I cant look back at my Poker Achievements, without forgetting where I come from, though. And it all started with Bankrollmobs free bankrolls (shoulda done the rakeback thingy every time from the start though. only thing i maybe regret). Thank you Bankrollmob!
EDIT: if you want to know what i removed here, look up umarplus profile on pocket5s. im not much of a member there, but their way to present your cashes is just so slick
so yeah. Happy Holidays all Mobsters, hope you had a good 2010 too and if not: may your 2011 be better!
Im out of here again, for now. GLGL!

nice 1 .... very very nice graph .... great what can be achieved from a ndb ... my year wasnt great but i wont complain ... still playing still have money in my poker accounts and still havent deposited using my own money. But am making progress slowly ..... i remember this time last year writing in a post what i would like to achieve for the coming year which was to be making a weekly income from poker even if it was only a $100 a week .... failed miserably he he he . so for next year going to aim for it again ..... will have a look at what iv been doing and where i can do better ... Anyway hope you manage to keep that roll going up ... and maybe let us know how you did it

the reason is you are a hardcore cashgame player, isn't it?
I am a cash player yer, but not sure if thats the reason...my end game needs a lot of work..thats why iv been playing lots of HU and SH small MTTs games recently. Its hard for me to actually play tourns due to time issues and outher commitments. Im not hardcore tho, nl100 x2 for a few hrs a night or nl25 x 4-6. I actually want to play a lot more touns, goal f next yea break the 1k line.

thank you, guys
yes, this is my graph on full tilt poker, where bankrollmob did start me with a ndb and most my games are still played (i like small fields better, so...)
how i did it? well... you obviously dont get a graph like that without having had some luck at least. i was lucky enough to get my good run of cards in the few bigger buyins i approached this year.
this generally would be my secret to success so far: play satellites (look for promos and big guarantees!) and if you hit a hot streak, dont be shy to play the target event each now and then, if you can beat it.
i also worked superhard on my game, like minimum 20 hours per week. and yes: a fair amount of the money won has went into coaching oppertunities. sure well invested as you can see, but to be quite honest: any forum with a good strat section will help you (needless to say i picked up some very valuable advice here already, back in the day).
im glad to see so many of my old mobster-pals still around. happy holidays yall!!!
