Re: Bankroll Bragging...
More then a little. And less then a lot.
That's how it will be for life.

Re: Bankroll Bragging...
[ QUOTE ]
I never have/had a "bankroll" in the sense that all my poker $$ came from one source that was incapable of being replenished, instead I deposit money and withdraw profit when I have expenses. While this relegates me to the lower levels, it works for me and my financial situation (i.e., if i weren't a poor grad student, that wouldnt be the case). [/ QUOTE ] I'm a poor grad student, and that's exactly why I am so obsessive about bankroll. My unreplenishable source was a $500 moment of stupidty at Party. If I hadn't needed to get the money back I never would have learned this stupid game. It's a good thing I learned to play before I learned anything about how large downswings can be. Well, that and after I went on a huge tear. [Censored], Party is rigged.

Re: Bankroll Bragging...
if you win so much at the higher levels why do you ever go back down?

Re: Bankroll Bragging...
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] This thread would become slightly useful if people also posted what level(s) they play. $2199 4-table 33's or 8-table 11's [/ QUOTE ] $2199? Bah. I 4 table 215's with that. Nary a problem......... [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] More short-rolled than normal right now, about 4800 between 2 accounts, 8x 215. [/ QUOTE ] This is a highly-transparent attempt to get me to four-table the 215's on my $2199 bankroll. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] I won't be fooled that easily! I am too smrt for that!

hahaha, that is great, I have more money for the 22s than you do for the 215s. [/ QUOTE ] Maybe consider cashing out or moving up? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Re: Income?
[ QUOTE ]
If the first question wasn't rude, this one may be, but I'm just kinda curious what kind of incomes people who do this (semi-)professionally are making at different stakes. [/ QUOTE ] 11's: $4.37/hr 22's: $6.31/hr 33's: $24.10/hr 55's: $53.13/hr (I wish this one were real. Alas, N=6) Overall: N=1270, $9.07/hr Low stakes pride!
