you guys are funny. i mean, i don't know how good you are or anything but do you realize how difficult it is to win $30k in a month?

[/ QUOTE ]

these money goals do seem grossly out of wack, I mean if you are making even 1/3 that now, don't see why you wouldn't be playing 600s already unless if there are big personal expenditures.

Last month was my first at NL400 so that's all I've got to go on. But if I hadn't played one night at NL2K... I would have made about 30k, and thats only running ~5PTBB/100. Seems insanely doable.

my goal is to not regret giving up 3 years, thousands of hours of playing, reading, posting, etc, and probably 40-50k a month in opportunity cost of not playing limit holdem in exchange for a game that i might end up sucking at

josh, what made you decide to give up 40-50k/month and start from scratch?

i just graduated and for over a year it's been my goal to learn to play NL, so now that i have some time off i decided to learn it. i've also tried to learn MTTs and PLO and i think NLHE experience will help me greatly in those. the fact that there's now more money in NL is kind of my fuel for working so hard at it (albeit doing more reading than playing). you gotta be a damn good limit player to make $1/hand. only the really elite players can make that much (i'm thinking <50 on 2p2). proportionately it takes much less skill and risk to make that much at NL.

30K Hands, limits varying from 200-600.
Not too concerned about money yet, but somewhere in the 5-10K range should be attainable if I run good.
