My god its so simple! What a donkey Ive been [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Vulter, my plan now is to withdraw 50% of profits until I have 30 buy-ins. After that I will withdraw 100% of profits above 30 buy-ins until I feel I want to move up. At which point I will withdraw 50% of profits until I reach 30 buy ins for next level.

Is this a good idea? Don't know yet.

This is only correct if you are wagering all your profits on black.

Meh, I built my poker bankroll by earning $6,500 in a few months playing online blackjack. Note the term "earning." This was bonus whoring, pure and simple. I followed the advice I saw online and withdrew profits from almost every casino I joined. Nice little bankroll builder, but it did absolutely destroy any love I ever had for the game of blackjack. After 40,000 hands or so, it gets somewhat boring....

So, I bought myself some nice stuff and made my first deposits at poker websites, and I've been playing with house money ever since.

As to bankroll management, I haven't made a deposit in two years, but I also haven't withdrawn anything in a year. My bankroll is a bit over 100 buyins, and I don't plan to withdraw any time soon. To me, the money is just hypothetical, and just a way of keeping score in the game.
