Started with zero, grinding away towards $10K, using very strict Bankroll Management. I'll only play an event if I have 100 Big Blinds and then only if I have 10 Buy-Ins. So for example I need 1000 times the Big Blind to play a Cash Game.
If I want to play $0.50 / $1.00 cash I'll need a bankroll of $1000 - a long way to go yet.
But $0.02 / $0.04 cash will require only $40.00. I have a ways to go, but so far a good start.
42 Games so far, 19 Cashes, 5 Firsts, $2.28 profit.
