What is your BR???

Im just wondering what everyones br is or what limits they play at.

I usually play micro 1-2$ limits as my BR is only about 600


Also im wondering if someone should move up to higher limits if they have continued success at the lower limits/

My BR is about $1200 at the moment, I play $50NL. Have made several withdrawals and am just grinding it out.

I have a $300 bankroll, and play 10NL, but I am mostly a SNG player anyways. When I do play 10NL, I am normally a losing player.

Six hundred and thirty five million, three and ninety five thousand, four hundred and eleven dollars nineteen cent.

Makes sense. lol TB

well because of some bills having to be paid i have $0.00
but before those bills i had $260 and played 2c-5cnl and 5c-10cnl

My bankroll is around £150, I play micro and freerollsYes

$660

Six hundred and thirty five million, three and ninety five thousand, four hundred and eleven dollars twenty cent.

But seriously, read the signature, I update it daily.

a kagillion dollhairs.

Read my sex VVVV if you want teh real answer

My BR size always changes cuz I often have to withdraw money. Right now I'm at $50 but a few weeks ago I had $8000. Had to make some withdrawals to pay off a balance I had with my university, get money for books (books alone this semester costed me about $300), ect.

Its weird i usually make about 400 dollars in a few hours at the 1-2$ limits then just as easily lose about 200 dollars at the 3-6$ limit tables.

I think i need to adjust the way i play as i move up in limits.

Usually ill play tight at the lower limits because most players arent concerned with your play at these limits.

All their focusing on is their own hands so when you get a solid hand their unable to tell weather or not your bluffing and most of them will call.

If you're making $400 in a few hours, why would you ever go up? Unless "a few" is more than 4, you're making $100+/hour. If you worked a 40-hour week at 50 weeks a year, that's $200k+/year. That's a lot of money in case you don't know.

Right now about $2500 split between Bodog and Stars

Taking it out of Bodog though and either putting it into Stars or might try Full Tilt.

I should make Goldstar at pokerstars though this month...can't decide which site to stick with. Might have to go to FT long enough to clear a bonus at least lol.

Well i was giving an average figure. I mean I'll make that amount one day at one table then maybe half of it the next and perhaps more the day after.

And then i might lose 100 at the next table.

The thing with poker is nothing is absolute because for all i know i might never win a pot again.

But my main reason for wanting to move up limits is the quality of play.
I get better games at higher limits but of course the risk is also higher.

So you play poker for quality of play? Interesting. I play to win $$ and if I was beating $1-2 and losing at $3-6, I know what I would be playing.

~$600 at Bodog and a little over $200 at FT

Better quality of play inherently means better players. There's a poker saying that's basically says that it does you no good to be the 9th best poker player in the world if the top 8 players in the world are sitting at the table with you.

^^^This. And then you dabble a bit in 3/6 to get experience and adjust. But stick to where you're doing well to get your bread and butter.

Just started my BR. I started with $50, hit a downswing early. Went down to $23, dug myself out started the day before yesterday.. sitting at $53. Goal is $100 by next monday.

My bankroll is something over one million Venezuelan Bolivars.

man i have some catching up to do

What's that, about $6 US?

I have $5000 across my 4 main sites (Titan, Victor Chandler, Bodog, Absolute), and about another $1000 in bits and pieces across several others.

I am mainly playing tournaments at the moment, $10-$20 Freezeouts and $5-$10 Rebuys. When I play the odd ring game, it is usually $50 NL.

I build my BR to around $1,000 then cashout $850, i start again with the $150 builing to $1,000 and the cycle continues.
Right now i have $220 on stars.

My online BR is 0.03 cents but my live cash game BR is $1600, I usually play 2/5 NL or 5/5 NL. I just can't stay focus while I'm on the computer to play well.

WOW!, and I outlasted u in the 200K!

Spread around, in the $250 range. But at each site my br management is separate. Biggest at the moment is pokerstars a bit over $100.

OK let me put it this way. I don't believe you are AVERAGING $400 every few hours. You may win this on a good day but I doubt you sustain that rate, especially at $1/$2 limit. Unless you are keeping records and can confirm that including downswings you average $400 every few hours, I think you're lying to yourself.

Or, put another way, "Liar, liar, your pants are on fire!"

lol, well I'm not saying he's intentionally lying, he probaly believes that he is indeed averaging that. But unless he has the cash or the records to back that up he shouldn't believe himself, that's all I'm trying to say. If you make $1k one day and then lose $500 the next 3 days in a row, you can hardly say that you make $1k a day. I obviously have no idea what this individual has done and it's totally possible that he's simply multi-tabling and beating it at a rate that really does net him that kind of win-rate. I'm just saying I highly doubt that, because then he would be making enough to literally quit his job, play about 20 hours a week and still be making 6 figures. Anyone who's doing that wouldn't go up levels just for the competition, unless it was just spare time with spending money (the same money people with other jobs use to gamble when they know they'll probably lose it.

"The best players in poker are brutally realistic"

I am sure this has made it to the quote of the day thread?

I've heard this quote so many times, but however many times I hear it, it will always be true.

ok i have over $2.5 million pokerstars. full tilt $4 million at full tilt. bodog $3 million. golden tiger $1 million i like poker it fun sport

that how much i make each day
$15,000 at pokerstars
$20,000 at full tilt
$10,000 at bodog
$7,000 at golden tiger
yes i like building bankrolls
I play cash games sit and gos. online poker tourneys it fun high stakes

always get enough sleep before playing poker like 8 hours
play smart and no donking it up like luck box

Ok let me put it this way.

When i start playing on any giving day i am usually up by about 400-600 dollars by the end of that day.

I never said that this figure included downswings.

If i were to include downswings then that figure could be reduced to 150 or possibly even a loss.

All im saying is that its very probable that i will be up that amount at some point during the day. Im not saying that i wont lose the majority of it when on a downswing.

Perhaps the way i put it seems to confuse people. Its obvious that i am not making 400 profit a day or else i would be doing it for a living.

By the way what i said was;

"Its weird i usually make about 400 dollars in a few hours at the 1-2$ limits then just as easily lose about 200 dollars at the 3-6$ limit tables"

At no point do i say i make 400 dollars of profit. Im a gambler which usually means ill lose the majority of my winnings and only ever cash out small amounts.

My largest cash out to date was last week. 830 dollars. But only around 500 of that is profit.

I Play Poker the way retired people play golf. I try to get as good as possible, have fun and if im lucky make some money.

Can you say "Waffle"?
