Also, I'd be careful about taking out more than winrate x number of hands. That +75BB session you had this month is just insurance for the -75BB session you're going to have next month.

Yes, but as long as you maintain a decent bankroll you'll be fine. If I have 500BB win 75BB and cash it out, I have the same risk of ruin that I had before I won. Independent events.

Default Re: Part timers - what do you do with your winnings?

I keep about 400BB in Neteller. Being the gekk/dork/loser that I am I spend the rest on LOTR and Star Wars statues and also on the Star Wars lightsaber replicas. I can justify this to my gf with the old. "But it's not my money"

However I think I need a new computer so that could be the next thing.

I bought a 2001FP (sweeeeeeet). I'm also planning to upgrade my whole computer when I get enough to do that.

Mostly though I just use my winnings to move up and test myself at higher limits.

I try and keep around $600 in Neteller at the start of every month. I withdraw enough to pay my boat payment, and fund my monthly home game. The rest goes to fun stuff. New computer, nice dinner with the family, toys for daughter and wife.

Vacations. Nice vacations.

(I also bought a new computer system with two 2001fp's earlier this year.)

I got a 2001FP in February. I may have to get a new laptop soon and I might get a new set of golf clubs. That'll be about it for withdrawals until I get a substantial amount in the BR after beating up 2/4 and 3/6 for a while.

Default Re: Part timers - what do you do with your winnings?

I had a good paying internship for the past two summers, so I have enough money saved up to cover all of my living expenses through the year, plus my Roth IRA contribution, plus leftover money without relying on poker. That allows me to use the poker earnings for nothing but poker related purposes. That includes buying poker books, 2 (cheap used) monitors, and a sweet new computer. The rest goes into growing the bankroll. Oh, and my online winnings also fund my donations at the B&M. I'm hoping it's a "small sample size" issue....
