| Gotta find the game you are best at and the style of game, I believe for everyone it is different. Probably the #1 way is good bankroll management, others will probably agree that's one of the most important. Just stick to your BRM plan and grind it out, and if you are a good profitable player, it will happen! You will have good and bad players at probably every table, just figure out which is which. I mostly hear ring games is where you should be most profitable because it has the least variance. |

| $200 is 20 buyins at 10nl, so you could give that a try if you wanna play ring games, but starting at like 2nl or 5nl first and making sure you're beating those games would be better imo if youre gonna try 10nl move down a level if u lose 5 buyins |

| As for which games have the best/worst players, there are a good mix of both in every game! I've been playing omaha as long as hold-em, just because when we play home games we alternate between the two so it doesn't get too 'samey'. That has been giving me an advantage recently in the low stakes omaha high games and the horse tourneys, as more people are trying omaha recently, and are still learning the basics. My best advice would be to get more heavily into these games, particularly omaha and razz, so you not only have knowledge of how to dominate an extra game, but so it doesn't get too much grinding the same tables day in day out. Thats essential to bankroll management. If your not enjoying yourself at the tables and at any point see it as a chore rather than fun, your going to end up tilting and dumping some cash off. |

Sorry to be harsh, but the very first thing you need to change is your attitude towards this game. It's not a get rich quick scheme. Last edited by BelgoSuisse : 8th April 2009 at 10:39 AM. |

| BelgoSuisse, its not that i have a bad attitude about the game, ive been playing poker a little over 2 years, have read books upon books, i have a good attitude. I was jus wondering where other people think they win the most money at. b/c it varies from person to person. i enjoy playing razz omaha and hold em, i try to play each of them at some point in the day. i don't think poker is a get rich quick scheme cuz throughout my time playing i have come to realize it takes a good amount of time to "earn" money from poker |

| fair enough. Learn out to multitable NHLE cash tables. That's where most of the money is (until you reach nosebleeds where PLO is maybe bigger). And it starts to be really profitable where you reach 100nl and more. bw07507 here earns over $100/hour at 100nl. He 24-tables. |

| I agree with Belgo ... the most traveled path we've seen a lot of people have success with is to grind the full ring No Limit Hold'em tables. However, there is something to be said for playing 6max PLO if you have a knack for that game, but whatever it is, I suggest to specialize in 1 discipline and rock it out. |

| re: Build that BR!! poker Learn the $10 + 1 non-turbo STT's and you'll maximize your roll. Obviously start at the $2 or $5 level with your roll and go from there. And if you feel really confident in these games, I advise trying to qualify for the iron man challenge. Start at silver and move from there. And when your bankroll allows, play MTT's that are >20% of your abi for STT's so MTT variance never hurts you. I play a lot of $216 STT's and play the 50/50 every night and the 50-50 is essentially a freeroll. |
