I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

Don't know what your BR management plan is, but it seems pretty sound so far. This post from Spoon has helped me over the last year:
Here is the plan I'm following:

Then, the higher you get, take a slightly higher bankroll requirement than the stakes previous so that you better protect your poker bankroll.
When you have $100, play 5nl. (20 buy-ins)
When you have $250, play 10nl. (25 buy-ins)
When you have $750, play 25nl. (30 buy-ins)
When you have $1750, play 50nl. (35 buy-ins)
When you have $4000, play 100nl. (40 buy-ins)
When you have $10000, play 200nl. (50 buy-ins)
If you follow this and regularly play and work on your game, you'll be making a lot of money in less than two years imo.

Hey guys I just wanted to say thanks and I appreciate the support. I am working on the next level. As far as bankroll management I have been using the advice that spoon gives out. I would agree it is pretty sound advice.
Thanks agian
