serious answers please (poker winners)(and losers)

[Graham C]

I'm slightly up. If I add up my accounts, it's certainly way more than I'd ever have deposited simply because I don't have that much spare cash. I only play for small money though.  One day I'd like to be almost at pro level.  I'd probably never give up my business unless I win the main event or something like that, but I'd like to be playing for serious money on a regular basis.

marriage?   moving overseas?   mass monkey cloning project to take over the World?    Setting up an antiques business?   You are taking your shot at being a golf pro on the American tour? 

These all cost money.  Am I on the right path?

No - not found anyone desperate enough to say yes

No - even though i do miss the Hot and Humid jungle at times

No - Thats going to happen anyway, the primate world takeover project doesn't need any financial help from me

No - Antique bananas don't go down too well

No - Though maybe once i sort out the consistency of hitting the ball straight every time i'll think about it

sell the 2nd house Matt, & go & play the High Stakes game!!!

Unfortunately the house is bringing in more of an income than my attempts to cash regularly at the lower mtt levels!! 

Having a modest bankroll can be no fun.

But it's much closer to a barrell of laughs than having no roll whatsoever. Stick to yer guns Matt 

It isn't too far off having no roll whatsoever to be honest. Have talked it through with BigArmo and i reckon if i stuck $5k back into the bankroll and went back to playing the $50 rebuys etc on a regular basis it wouldn't be long before the decent cashes came rolling back in.

Maybe i'll win the blondepokerleagueIII and that will be the catalyst to bigger and better things - how much was the bounty on your head again?

25 knicker

Anyone who manages to scalp my tight-weak ass deserves it.

[lazaroonie]

havent a clue, and to be honest, dont really care.

love playing....and of course love winning.

I dont have a bankroll, all my tournament entries and stakes come out of my own pocket....and of course then go and blow any winnings on fripperies and junk

maybe i should have a bankroll...what do the experts think ?

[turny]

very suprising results at moment.

11% reckon they win over a £1000 a week! come on guys stop kidding yourself. not doubting that some earn good money on here but £1000 a week week in week out is hard to do.100% i doubt it.

[thetank]

It's not 11% of the country we're talking about here. It's 8 blondies.

Entirely possible.

[turny]

11% of blondites who mentioned the country?

we will see if this figure falls as more vote.

will be interesting

[thetank]

That's like polling a group of athletes and asking who can run the 100m in under 11.5 seconds.

8 folk say yes, they're probably telling the truth.

It's only $100k p/annum, entirely possible for a few cash game players and MTTers here.
Even a fish like me can get round about halfway if he's lucky.

Ooh, and I can do the 50m in 11.5 seconds too. So I guess I'm halfway to the Linford club too.

[booder]

11% of blondites

wouldnt that be  427

[byronkincaid]

any half decent 2/4 player (not me yet unfortunately) should be able to earn $100K+ a year including RB and bonuses.

[thetank]

11% of blondites

Booder makes the point better.

[turny]

11% of blondites

of those polled ffs why do people rip whatever u write? if u read the whole lot and look at the poll ul c what im saying and would feel the need to point out and correct me.

[turny]

well done to those 8 11% or whatever you want to call them. most impressive

I think you miss the point we're trying to make turny.

Obviously you're talking about the sample of those polled, but we're trying to underline that the sample is very small. Talking in terms of %s will give you silly meaningless numbers in small polls.

The point is, of the 8 people, it's very possible none of them are telling fibs.

fair enough tank just would hate to think some of them are kidding themselves or are reading the crireria for the winning alot choice.

and as i say will be interesting to see how this percentage fluctuates as more people vote
