Shoot away...
again I'de prefer the player side over the backer side was thinking of this when the Steps came out but I have come in 4th and 2nd on level 5 so probally don't need it anymore...though I'de probally still take it to be honest.

hey ryan, guess what, im 18, my parents give me nothing, i pay for my apartment, car, insurance, food and tuition, which is nothing cuz i am on scholarship. i built my bankroll up myself, by learning and reading and playing a lot. amazing what that will do for ya. hmm, interesting how i dont need a backer to 8 table the 109s. maybe a little hard work will get you farther, who knows? holla

Lots of people built up their bankroll on here through hard work,reading,etc blah blah blah...lots of people also lost their bankroll thru hardwork, reading,etc..cept they don't bother to post it.
The money is not the issue..especially as long as Law and Order is being re-run on multiple channels.

The idea is based... in part ...thought of it while reading all the post in terms of Gaucho,Irie etc.

Apartment..los angeles say $1000-$1500 a month thats say $12,000 a year..food say $500-1000 a month...thats say $8000 a year...Car..if its nice say $35,000...if its ok say $22,000...if its really nice say $50,000. So thats around 45,000 to 55,000 a year playing poker...thats pretty impressive...but I could never play limit poker that much...it would be too boring for me.
but to each his own.

well, i live in dallas, and my apartment has a roomate, and its around 500 a month each, food i dont really know how much i spend but i like eating, so ill go with the 1k a month. as for the car? where the hell do u figure those insane numbers, lol. i bought a used explorer for 8k, insurance is like 3k a year cuz im young. im 18, and i can pay all that EASY. i already payed off my car so figure 20k max for expenses. books for school are expensive as hell tho, add another 1k a year for that.

i dont know whats so hard about it. i could make that playing 10+1s. if you actually try to succeed its not that hard. really. i know this from experience. holla

you could make 55k playing 10+1's...somehow i find that hard to believe. Even to make 25k you'de have to play tons of sit n go's...a year in prison would be more exciting than that. It would make more sense to play the step system instead of just straight up 10+1 sit n go's.
I bought a new Lexus so obviously I would pay less for a used car...$500 bucks a month...aghhh how nice that must be.

sigh, you didnt read my post. why didnt you read my post. i said 20k. 20k. my expenses are not like yours apparently. i dont have to pay a bajillion dollars a year for everything. i live easy. and yes, i could make 20k playing 10+1s. and as for playing tons of sngs, you would be hard pressed to find someone that plays more than me. holla

Wow, only 18 and already 8 tabling the $109s?? very impressive!! How long ago did you start poker and how long ago did you start playing Party SnGs?

Also how many games did you play and what was your ROI approx at each level before you moved up?

Congrats on the progress!! [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
