It's ok,

I can afford it, so not much of disaster so far...
Besides I have fun which is worth every cent...

ok guys maybee i put up some wrong options maybee i might word it diffrent in a few weeks ,,try again sort of,but still im finding what i do see hard to belive imho

Irrespective of whether the options are misleading or not, it is an excellent thread that has created a good debate.

Statistically the sample suggests that a lot more money is being won than lost, which obviously cannot be correct.
However, is it not likely that the people who bother to visit a forum regularly, and learn from other people's experiences, are going to be on average more profitable, than those who do not? (i.e. if you did a sample of other players who did not put the same amount of time to Poker learning, the results would be markedly more negative).

As a case in point,I read a few books and watched some telly in the first year I was playing, but feel as though my game has progressed at a faster rate since I have been visiting this forum regularly over the last 3 months.

wow upto 14.4% now we either have some seriously clever guys on here or some real dreamers

the £1000+ per week gang
so far we have woodsey, rob yong and pab so whose the others?

why do you find it so hard to believe that people make £1k a week online? maybe the poll should include those that make an average of $27,183 per month for the last 10 months, then you would be even more amazed

Boosted J said he was gonna teach his GF to 8 table 1/2 to get $100K a year. I think that's very possible but obv anyone who can do it will move up. Maybe it's because most people on blonde seem to play tourneys that they don't get how much money there is in cash games atm.

I opted for win sometimes.
 
I don't keep records but, although I know I should.  When I win it comes in spurts, I don't tend to loose more than I can afford I sometimes leave myself a little short.

When I win my problem is that I move up the levels and end up loosing it, as I have stated in other threads I am going to start keeping proper records in the new year it would  be good to see at the end of year what my profit/loss was.

What do people find is the best way to do this?  Should I use something like poker tracker or compile a spreadsheet?

I use the MyPokerDiary service on the Hendon Mob site (which is free and I've been using it since I started).

Have looked at Poker Charts as an alternative, and was wondering if it offers anything more that means it would be worth my while switching to it?

They look very similar, although the Poker Charts one looks more polished.

similar to a few posts.

made some money on blackjack freebies and have never had to deposit since...i play rarely at the moment and have a smallish bankroll.

Yep, don't get me wrong i enjoy comps and i make enough money, it's just if i had stuck to cash then i think i would be making much more than i do now.

So then presumably you don't consider it worth your while to attempt to "retrain" yourself back into a cash player?
