Building a Bankroll
Well it's a new year and I am still grinding it away at low stakes poker barely making enough to live on. I have played poker for a living for about a year and a half now and up to this point have had some crazy swings and have almost had to get a job a couple times. But enough is enough, I am tired of grinding away at the low stakes and I am ready to move up to the big time.
I am ending this year with 100K in my bankroll and I plan to do anything and everything to get there with a healthy bankroll. I'm going to stick to 30 buy-ins at each level until 200NL and then 40 buy-ins for 400NL and up. I think that I should be able to move up one level per month and make enough rakeback that I will not have to demenish my bankroll for living expenses.
I ended last month 8 tabling 100NL and went on a horrible downswing due to over confidence and tilt. I cashed out down to 1500 and am starting this month at 50NL. This blog will document my progress, will share some of my insights into the game, and hopefully make the readers and myself better poker players.
