Come on doomdy you really think im like that, haha nah I was just on viacation.
Regarding my Party bankroll, im actually at my first goal and have been for a while. 10.000$. My goal was to build a steady roll for NL200 since I love to be way overrolled, it gives me confidence and security to not worry about going broke in some of the evil swings I meet. So right now im playing NL100-200 with 10K$ bankroll, laugh all you want I know someone will but I like the security. My next goal is to build the roll big enough to play regularly at NL1000(blinds 5-10) but I got a feeling it's gonna take some time. I make aprox 5000 $ every month but im pretty good at using them

Posted by M3turbo: Yeah better safe than sorry im not in a hurry
That's great doomdy ur growing fast I think, are you multi tabling?
I am not growing fast but i am growing lol For now my goal is growing $1,000 a month incl bonusses and rakeback ect. Want to have bankroll $5,000+ at 1st of januari after that i want to set new goal. New goal i guess is going up in limits so my bankroll can grow faster but dont know yet
And offcourse i do multitabling Thing is..., PKR can only do 4 tables multi so thats littl bad but no problem.

Posted by b9meer: Nice work. Glad for you but for NL200 you need 6000$ and for NL1000 50000$ if 3000BB rule gl
That depends if you full buy or short stack. Shortstack 4 NL200 (100$ buy-in) = 1000BB so 2000$ Mid buy-in 4 NL200 (250$ buy-in) = 2500BB so 5000$ Max buy-in 4 NL200 (500$ buy-in) = 5000BB so 10000$ Shortstack 4 NL1000 (500$ buy-in) = 1000BB so 10000$ Mid buy-in 4 NL1000 (1250$ buy-in) = 2500BB so 25000$ Max buy-in 4 NL1000 (2500$ buy-in) = 5000BB so 50000$ If you fall below the BB amount u should move down till u r back on track. You should move up a limit when u have at least 20 buy-in's preferably 30 that way you have some room in between moving down and staying on that limit. If you fall below 20 buy-in's you should move back down to the lower limit.

excellent job. I can never get very far ahead in the bonuses. I might take the $25 and get it up to $100 or so but then always get on a bad run and lose it all. Oh well, I guess I'm not very good

@gamblorjb I think some bankroll management will do the trick for you.
@andosalado
Play with discipline, selfcontrol and patience and you are well on your way. Make sure you get in with the best so it's your opponent that needs to get lucky and not you. Get in with the best and do it over and over again that's poker. Make sure you allways got MINIMUM 20 buy-ins for the level you play at. Use 5 min to find good tables it will really pay off, you don't have to be a shark to win you just have to find someone worse than you Start with your 56$ from the button and work your way up, slowly but steady. In this way your bankrolll and skills will fit the next level when you reach it.

wow, really impressive, congratulations for that great job, hope for you, you can continue this and we'll soon hear from you as a highstakes pro, gl with that; I'm awaiting payment for about 2 days now and I'm very excited, I 'll try to build up my bankroll just in your way, seems to me the best bankrollm. I' ve heard from till now, I made a 5000$ once in 5 hours by playing an aggressive pot-limit-omaha-style with only 75$ to start approx., of course my damn bankrm didn't bring me very far in the end, so I hope I learned from it, maybe I can be more successfully now , wish me gl pls, I think I could really need it this time

Thanks man, I will continue but high stakes pro has wait some time im affraid
I wish you best of luck on your way, remember this time to ALLWAYS have ATLEAST 20 BI's at the level you play.
@cyclonisx2
Sadly I haven't been really lucky with big tour wins or anything just good old grinding many long hours at micro and low stakes steady but slowly building up the roll. Only luck boost to my bankroll was when I cracked the SAFE for 130$ still think it's the record
In one of the following days I will make a proper update on this thread if anyone should be interested.
