Congrats on your success. I'm up more then 10000$ over the last 3-4yrs I've been playing poker but I've done a lot of withdrawals. Quick question 4 u what kind of bankroll management do u use ??? I play cash games mostly and I go up a limit when I have 30 buy-in's to the next limit and I go down a limit when I have less then 20 buy-in's of the current limit I'm playing. And I also play ShortStack strategy that way I can move up limits faster.
Congratulations..really a great score So I am still a donkey which plays on CD Poker and, after three months, I have, more or less, the same bankroll. Could someone suggest me a good book to study and to improve ?

I play the shortstack method which is great. You basically min buy-in only at tables (20BB). Once you go below 15 BB's u rebuy to 20. Once you get to 25BB's or more u leave the table. The reason y this is great is because u don't have to put that much money in. The reason y u rebuy at 15 or lower is because if u go all in u won't make as much. and the reason y u leave if u have 25+ is because the biggest mistake ppl make is the double up and have 40BB at that point the stay on the table get a really good hand but get beaten by a hand a bit better or by a badbeat. At that point the lose all there winnings and all the money they put on that table so instead of being up they are down. Only play Really Good Hands and play according to your position. For example pocket 8's is played diffrently from blind, late, middle and early position. Finnaly Bankroll Management. You play a certain limit if yu have at least 30buy-in's to that limit. If you fall below 20buy-in's move down a limit and if you have at least 30buy-in's to the next limit move up a limit. Most people to make profit from poker because of they're bankroll management. Also you don't want to b playing at a table that has less then 7 other ppl at that table because the blinds will eat up ur stack and you don't want 2 b playing with a table that has a lot of players playing short stack also because they have the same goal as you. Playing against ppl that actually have at least 50BB at the table is better as they make more mistakes against shorstacks then regular stack. Hopefully I've helped u and good luck.

Posted by M3turbo: WoW that is amazing, whan an accomplishment....congrats..you gotta feel great about it I have in the past made 50 $ into 500 $ and then made a withdraw but nothing like this. This time my plan is to buil build build......just like you. The other day i was actually thinking what my goal should be.....perhaps 10K I started here on bankrollmob on 10. december on PP with 25 $ im now at 825,22$ so still a long way to go.....but im still learning Truly a great story please keep us updatet on your game !!
Mago I don't have PokerTracker but I have PokerOffice nearly the same if you want it just respond here. And also what is your bankroll on now?
well this tools are equals you can use it to make statics calculate odds and much more but of course you ned a licence and now my bankroll its now on 15k almots 16k but well two days ago my bank its in a little more than 18k but some badbeats and bad playeds let me down well im recovering the waythere are the pics
LOL...its funny seeing everyone suck up to him 10k in 1 year is nothing... especially as he play 8-12 hours a day playing 2 tables...
lets do some math:
365days X 8 hours = 2920 hours
Lets asume he plays 50 hands per hour per table and as he said plays 2 tables.
2920hours x 100 (hands per hour) = 292,000 hands played.
$10,000 / 292,000hands = $0.0342465......etc cents per hand
which = $3.42 per 100 hands! lol or $3.42 per hour!
Now for the busting of the chops...go to the screen shot link thats quoted (top 1)
notice the white background...now compare that to close to the didgits...notice the greyish shade???? compare it to the link in his very first posted message, the tone by the numbers doesnt stand out so much...so much for consitancy.
But any if its real congrats (although for the hours youv played its not a very big achievment)
