Hi netsmasher. I have been running terrible for about a month. I know this will change and I just keep playing until it does. I've lost about $1000.00 over this time so now I am playing low stake poker and still not getting anywhere...............please help...

Congratulations Netsmasher! Always nice to hear success stories like yours, especially when they involve a fairly large player field. I have played quite a few 4 max tourneys but always with 20 player (on 888), but 600? Wow!

Sweet, i think you are one of the winners on Pokerstars, may of my friends that have the bankroll there said that for a couple of time they are all on minus, but you seem that you win pretty good which is great by the way. Big congratulations and keep them coming I didn't played too much poker lately because i have some exams in this period but i must say you can rela very good by playing poker and one thing is for sure: it's a lot better to play to have fun than starting to play only thinking that you need to make money. I've only had fast sessions on full tilt poker at rush nl25, i've won around 1 buy in per day, which is pretty good considering the time i spent playing, and in fact also by bb/100 improved a lot actually, which is great. Let us know what other personal records you'll break in the future! Good luck!

You are doing very well Netsmasher, just hope your winning spree continues so you can keep on giving good news to BRM comunity, to see if we all feel the will to do the same! LEts hope! I can say i am playing at PPlex24 with the NDB from BRM and, although i play very few, things are running nice. I am concentrated in playing only one type of game, $1.10 SnG Double Up. It will take time for me to see profits, but i need to stablish hard objectives on poker so i can see results. If i don't play that well, i start from the base. I received €10 and $1.10 is equal €0.85. I decided i will only play this until i get to €50. It will take time because i only play two or three times in every two weeks, but when i do i play for 3 hours. If i play two or three tables at the same time, which i am doing, i am totally concentrated and things will run well. Give me strength for my objectif Mobsters, i will compensate you with my super positive posts, giving luck to everybody!

Keep up the good work, you are growing the bankroll pretty fast actually If you like to play tournaments and sit and go, i advice you to continue to play them, i personally do not have enough pateience to play a tournament for 5 or so hours, so that why i prefer to play only cash games. But those that are very good in tournaments really need to stick to these since you can also win big from them. You need to be a very balanced player and strictly respect bankroll management, there will be times when for ten buy ins in a row you'll not even make a single cent, so it can be bad for your mental so thats why so important to play within bankroll Again, big congratulations and keep up the great work. Of course keep us posted with your latest wins

well done getting nice wins in big tournaments, MTT wins can give big boosts to your bankroll but there is a lot of variance. u seem to be running good but be careful of a downswing too in future, gl
