I don’t know if I got it very well, but taking a look at this numbers seems like you’re running very well. You are being able to release the bonus payment really fast, I guess you’re only playing there and you probably aren’t doing anything else except playing. You are doing it very well, this are the kind of results most of BRM users would like to see at their own accounts, keep up the good work.

Yeah it's a good offer. You need to rake $3.7 to release a $5 increment. Means you can actually earn $1.3 just to be BE after each session. If you also count your earnings - you get his result.
Downswing will come eventually, be warned. I'd suggest you then secure your roll by moving down in limits. Especially on CG, money comes and goes away really fast.

Thanks For clearing that up KowKain. I appreciate your advice, I should have read the post a little sooner haha I'm down a little bit on my bankroll but I'm still up there.
I took the day off yesterday from PKR (I had to work a double shift) I will post my results for today at the end of my day.
------------ Blog and bankroll updated above.

So I really got loose today and ended up where I probably should not have been. But as you can see above it was a huge benefit to my bankroll.
So here goes todays play-of-the-day . So I was browsing through the tables and seen that there was more activity than usual at the $1.00/$2.00 tables. My original intent was to observe the professional PKR player "Welllbet" and how she played her game. After watching only a few rounds I seen there were at least 3 loose Donkies at the table going all-in on horrible odds and Re-buying with $100. My urges got the better of me and I sat down with the minimum $60.00 (48% of my bank). I obviously should not have been there, but hey what the heck. After playing two rounds and down -$6.00 on my bank I was pretty much ready to leave the table due to lack of good hands. Throughout this I watching wellbet double her Bank by hitting pocket K's two separate times in the two rounds. I decided to play one more round then leave the table.
(BB) A6 off 6 outs Button raises 3x Blind I call -I really should not have called this raise. FLOP: A 8 6 (Rainbow) I check Button player checks TURN: 5 I raise 25 % of the pot Button player re-raises I 4Bet Button player shoves his stack all in ($102) LOL (I only had like $5.00 left at this point) I call Button player show two pair A's and 5's I Show River is unimportant I win the pot $117
I left the table just before BB hit me again. lol okay now go ahead lets hear what you have to say (I'm expecting hate) but whatever the case tell me you thoughts, opinions, just make a post. Later guys! good luck at the tables!

Well you got balls I give you that. Buying in with half your roll - insane, My neighbour is just like that. We "discovered" poker together and are junkies for it ever since He took the hyper-aggro, learn by doing approach, whereas I took the painfull one - studying literature, Holdem Manager, forum, etc. --> The main difference was I followed bankroll management, he didnt.
Long story short, we've both developed a habit of depositing regurarly, have played about the sametime: hes down 3000€, I'm up about 600€. Thats 4400$ minus. Don't jump limits, no matter how juicy the game is. Lol, the juicier it is, bigger roll you need, cause people get lucky,you know.
Anyway nice hand!
I'd play it differently, mainly 3beting preflop, then cbet 3rd pot on flop + call raise, shove turn. Given that he checked, you could be in serious trouble by the turn, and that 5 really brings some nasty combos out. But as played, u cant fold here - you are comitted. But honestly, you got lucky there.
So, no hate...
GL on felt, come down to NL4 sometimes, we'll play

Alright so today I played it safe and I still had a huge success. I joined 9-Max $0.05/$0.10 with a $10 Bank at the table I was playing for nearly 2 hours at this table. After a decent up I left the table with $33.32 ! I had a couple of lucky wins, hitting the strait on the river with one and just having some nice callers donating to me.

Today was not a successful day at the tables for me. I got 2 bad beats today... but like I have learned I should be upset about the bad beats because that just means my opponents are playing exactly how I wanted them to- Bad. Sometimes they get lucky but if I keep playing the way I should be then in the end I will continue to win. Gl at the tables!

Woow looks great. Starting with 10 $ to get to this is pretty awesome. KEEP it up mate, you really can make some money there and it looks like some bonuses really are useful
