I took out my $500 withdrawal from the listing because when I backtracked my deposits, it seems I had just recovered my early losses of late last year. This is now an accurate stand of where I am at ever since I started playing again online last August 2007.

Hope everyone is running good!

Broken The $2,500 Mark!!!!

Yeah baby!

I have just recently reached my second milestone after some good swings. I had been dabbling in a lot of SnGs and minor MTTs lately looking for a big score but sadly it was counter productive. I have found my place in 100NL and was constantly crushing the game cashing out $100 a night but my SnGs losses were pulling me down. I would lose three $26 sessions and would end up being up by just $20+

The worst is on Sundays with the frenzy of the big money tournaments. I usually played 3-4 satellites and even dabbled in some super turbos (starting chip stack of 100 LOL) and went 0 out of 6,580,236. For some reason I can't serve two masters and when I crush ring my tournament game sucks.

I then made the conscious decision to play primarily ring until I can break the $2,000 mark in my bankroll. It has worked wonders and after 5-6 winning sessions I have reached my second milestone. I have cashed out $500 on top of my $2,000 so overall I have now finally made $2,500!

It's been 123 days since I started with a $15 roll I am 1/8 of the way to making my ultimate goal of building a $20,000 bankroll and rolling with the big boys online.

Next stop..... $5,000

Imaginary Bubble On Bankroll

I have played the last 15 days floating around the $1,000 and not really making a breakthrough. I have gone all the way up to $1,600 and after a few bad sessions back down to $1,100. The weird thing is everytime I near the $1,000 mark I tighten up a lot and I am able to slowly build my roll again.

Is this normal? I mean it seems I am just playing $500 of my roll when I really have $1,500. I also tried my hand again at the $1/$2s with some pretty good results but I have to admit the swings are terrible since all-in seems to be the word for the day at this level.

Roll currently at $1,210 with quite a bit of 500 point days so I am planning to break the $300 mark on rakeback.
