Need to make 2000-3000$ monthly.

You need to start at .10/.25 NLHE and work your way up just like everyone else. At this limit, if you play well, you can make $50-100 per week (a conservative estimate based on variance), perhaps more on a good week. Before you know it, you'll be rolled for .25/.50, .50/1.00, etc.

It's September. So your goal should be to build your bankroll to $1200 by the end of the year so you can start playing .25/.50. That would give you 24 buy-ins at that level which should provide you with a good cushion should you go through a bad run (which we all go through).

The only way you're going to make $2000-3000 monthly is if you start at 1/2 and go on a sick run of cards and build your roll to $4000-5000. I'm just being honest here, I don't think it's a good idea. If you only have $600 and you play 1/2 and lose 3 buyins right off the bat, you're busto!

$100 per week in college makes you rich! Hell, when I was in college, $20 got me hammered with some left over for the coney island at 2AM. If you have a car, gas is gonna be your biggest expense, however, since you're on campus (assuming you're living in a dorm) you shouldn't be driving too far. What's your living situation? Are you commuting from home, or living in the dorms?

Listen to this.

Also, do you have any stats on your game? It is possible for you to build the roll in 10 months that could let you make 2-3k a month but only very good players can do this. Start within your bankroll and grind it out. You can do it if you want it bad enough.

anyone breaking even at 100nl/200nl in a month can make 2k+ on rakeback alone. you just have to play a lot.

LOL OP is Estonian - he isn't going to waste time on tite USA sites like FT with 27% RB or Stars with whatever his FPP's work out at..

He can pick the Eurodonk sites with much worse players and better bonuses/RB bonuses - crypto, prima, ipoker, party, B2B etc

If you need $2000 and can play say 100 hrs/month then that's $20/hr. You can do this at pretty low levels and conservative win rates if you are prepared to put in the hours.

So that would be 4 tabling the $50 6 max tables at 4PTBB/100 on the $50 tables with a 50% RB deal for example.

Or 8 tabling $5.50 Turbo SnG's with a 18% ROI and 40% bonus/RB deal.

Obviously at $100 NL or $10 SnG's $20/hr is pretty trivial with even a tiny win-rate.

I wanted to know also what game is best to play for living or are they all the same? Any of you make some thousand dollars monthly by playing small stakes limit cashgames only? :P
