1000$ to 10000$ » General Discussion

well, if your plan is to turn 1k into 10k in a year, you only need to make like 800/month. You can easily do that playing low stakes. If you have a 10% roi at 3.50 sngs (a fairly easy reachable number provided basic sng understanding) you would need to play about 2300 a month, not includding rakeback, which would lower that to about 2k/month.  8 tables, is pretty easy, which would be about 15 games/hr, that would be about 140hrs a month you would need to play, so a little less then a full time job.

These are achievable numbers for being new to poker. If your a lossing player it obviously doesn't matter what stakes you will play, your going to lose. Like if your a poker genious, and want to play a ton, you could turn 1k into 10k in a month using proper bank roll and not running horribly. If you suck at poker, your gonna turn that 1k into 0 in a short while.

If you are a legitimate winner, the $7 sng games on stars will be good for you with your bankroll, or the 0.25/0.50 games. You can make almost $20/hr playing the sngs if you multi-table enough, and you can make $20/hr 4-tabling cash games if you are good enough at those limits. If you are average, these numbers are probably closer to $10/hr, so that would mean playing 80 hrs a month, or 20 hours a week.
