You're a funny guy. I took a $40 freeroll win and a $50 deposit and turned it into the kind of money you think will take you 10 years to make, and haven't redeposited, and am still playing off that, taking out a weekly "paycheck", playing NL100. But I guess you don't wanna hear that made-up story. (If you don't believe people can do it, why do you think you yourself can do it?)

Anyways, it seems you are in poker for the money. Which is fine. You say you are a good player. Alright, fine. Get a roll together and play NL100. That's where you can start making paycheck kind of money. If you're good, you should be able to beat the game, no problem.

You play two weeks and you are up $15. I just won a $15 hand 2 minutes ago. I mean, c'mon. Realistically, you're not gonna build a roll, playing for those stakes. It can happen, sure. But you need to play higher to make any kind of significant $$$. Get a roll started from the outside somehow. Bring it in, play higher stakes, build it up.
