I'll start us off since I'm here.
Yesterday I made just over $2000 in one day playing cash games. Thats the most I ever made in one day apart from a MTT win.

This thread has made me pause though - the last time I actually *achieved* something in poker was months ago when I FTed a $10K freeroll, or maybe when I moneyed in my first (and only to date) $33 SNG. But it's okay to just keep on keeping on, right, working the BR up ever so slowly, enjoying and learning the game? | |

Today was a big day for me. I tried 8 tabling full ring for the first time. I played 5000 hands, the most hands I have ever played for a single day. And I won. I ran awfully (KKvsAA 3 times, 3 set under sets, 1 2outer (AAvsQQ unimproved all in on turn)) and I still managed to scrape out 4ptbb/100. | |

Absolutely. I think the idea is to give myself a target, even though I know targets can sometimes prove a hindrance. I also would like to be able to take advantage of the 35% rakeback site. But yeah, it's an arbitrary decision, pretty much. | |

This thread is a great idea. Always good to hear about achievements and the first-timer's poker milestones, as well as get words of encouragement in return. | |

i have recently accepted the fact that I am not as good as I think I am and set up a series of reasonable goals for myself to pull myself out of my crapola stakes. |

in my last 1k hands at 25NL, including a $50 win in a $5 SnG, my BR shot up over 13 buy ins! this was after a 3k hand just under break-even spell. definitely a motivator to keep learning - thx FTR. | |

I've recently moved up to $25NL and played 8000 hands at 5BB/100. I feel like I'm gradually improving, but I hope to work out more about finding leaks with PokerTracker. | |

I'm a beginner at 200NL, so 4.5ptBB/100 after 10k hands is good. My first $1000 day ever today (cash games) and cleared a 600$ bonus yesterday. I feel good. | |

I'm a perennial Low-Medium stakes player. But recently my BR got affected by life. Something I won't bitch abuot because it's a bankroll built upon a $10 I got for free at Royal Vegas and I've made around $2000 k now. But anyways. Back to the point. | |

Tourny no. #23112702 . It is basically a $1000 guaranteed tourny paying out on 20% award structure that you can only get into via daily freerolls. I'ts scheduled for Sunday, but I cant play then because in UK Monday is a bank holiday so I'm out drinking on Sun! | |

Just cracked $15,000 profit in poker (i.e. not including my success @ casino whoring). It's taken me 10 months on and off, with uni and teaching commitments getting in my way | |

This is weak and sad compared to most of you, but it's a milestone fo sorts for me. Last night I doubled my initial $250 deposit to $519 through a combination of bonus whoring and playing just slightly better than break-even poker |
