gettin there

well, its nothing spectacular, but im pretty proud none the less...one of my buddies sent me 1.00$ on pokerstars, and i have since paid him back 1.50, and still have a BR of almost 6$
also, last night i played in 2 tournaments, the first was a .10c buy in 360 payers, didnt make much $ out of it, but i finished in 11th place to win .40c

the 2nd tournament was on pokerroomschool, 2.20$ buy in with rebuys, 174 players, i didnt have to rebuy once, i paid the 2$ for the add on at first break, and ended up placing in 7th place for a prize of 49.75$

also, not as big of a deal, but i have played a few free rolls on pokerstars, and i always seem to make top 500... out of 12000 usual players...

im learning, elevating and actually starting to build a BR, i have put into my budget a 50$ deposit for pokerstars for next friday July 27th

im excited to be able to try with a good starting bankroll and see what happens (if i do well with this 6$ i hav on pokerstars, then i might not deposit, depending on how much is in my BR

again, thanks for all the advice and constructive criticism ive received on my posts, the members of this forum, have tought me much about the game, and im forever grateful...thanks again

Nice job. It seems you do well in MTT's. Make sure you start posting HH's and reading threads in the MTT forum on FTR. Also read some bankroll management threads. I suck at MTT's and play mostly cash, where we need 25+ BI to play. At MTT's, most folks suggest at least 100 BI, so you need $100 roll to play $1 buyin tourneys. If you keep learning and stick to established bankroll guidelines, you'll be able to protect and increase your bankroll and move up limits quickly.

Again, great job and good luck.
