Online Poker as your part time job!!!

[RikaKazak]

NL buy ins is based on the stakes...because the more agro game you play/your opponets play the bigger vaiance you get.

20 buy ins for NL 25 is PLENTY!

20 buy ins for NL10/20 is NOT ENOUGH!!

But I'm guessing you're more likely to need 20-35 buy ins than the 50 required for 10/20.

I keep 25 buyins for the stakes im comfortable playing. Just withdraw any excess of 25 buyins monthly. Play where your comfortable.

I must be the only one that builds, then goes on a horrendous downswing and yanks it all out. No?

I wait until i had 3 for PL25/NL25, after that i cashed out 700$ monthly. If i win more i travel to the USA and join vegas or buy a few bigger thinks like flat TV.
I must say that i dont need the monthly 700 and invest it in the stockmarkets. I am sure that poker is down earlier or later, and hope to live in the future with a part time job and investing, real estate or somethink like that.

i wait until i had 3K

Man, I can't believe that nobody jumped all over the 300BB for limit thing. 300BB is minimum for full ring games and even then a good player could go busto especially with a bit of tilt. If you play SH (which most of the games are) it's 500BB minimum and busto can occur.

Now that I have finally gotten to NL100, I plan to just leave it in there for now, as I have no need to withdraw any of it.

Going to Vegas for the first time in January for the CES show, so plan to pull out whatever I have built up over my bankroll and hit the tables with it.

After that, I will probably just have a set amount, like $1000 over my roll, that whenever I hit it I request a check.

You can't go busto if you drop down after taking a 100BB downswing until you build back up to 300BB. Recommend adding that to your BR Management Strategy.

It's probably better to give yourself an extra cushion in this day and age. I've had no method of deposit since neteller stopped serving the U.S., and I haven't looked into one because I haven't needed it.

I kept $6,000 in my account to play 2-4 NL and cashed out when I got somwhere between 2k-4k over that. Then I went on a bad run. When I dropped to $3,000, I went down levels and played 1-2. The bad run continued and I fell all the way down to $700 before building it back up over $6,000 again. So a little extra cushion is beneficial if you want to make sure not to bust your account.
