| Make a plan as far as your bankroll is concerned......Set a goal as far as a dollar amount is concerned.....If you want to step up in limits at a given time.....Plan to have your bankroll ready by that time....Setting goals will motivate you to play and play well. Life is Good :-) Roy Cooke | ||

| YES, THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. THE BEST PLAYER I KNOW (WHO'S ALSO A FRIEND OF MR. COOKE) TOOK SEVEN YEARS, TO PROGRESS FROM THE 10-20 THROUGH 30-60 LEVEL, TO THE 150-300 LEVEL. IT'S RATHER FORTUNATE, THAT THE TWO THINGS WE NEED, TO STEP UP IN LIMITS, (EXPERIENCE, AND BANKROLL) BOTH CAN BE AQUIRED OVER TIME. SO, IF YOU ARE DILIGENT IN YOUR STUDIES, AND IN YOUR BANKROLL INCREASE, BY THE TIME YOU HAVE THE NECESSARY TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE, YOU WILL ALSO HAVE THE BANKROLL. ALSO, I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH, THE IMPORTANCE OF HAVING SOME ADDITIONAL INCOME, OTHER THAN POKER. THIS IS SO IMPORTANT, I KEEP HARPING ON IT. FOR TWO REASONS: ONE, YOU HAVE THAT MUCH LESS PRESSURE TO "HAVE" TO WIN. AND, OF COURSE, YOU HAVE A MORE WELL-ROUNDED LIFE!! THE MOST MISERABLE PEOPLE I HAVE EVER SEEN, ARE THOSE WHO ARE NOTHING BUT POKER, POKER, POKER, 24/7. (AAAAAAAARRRRHHHHGGG!!! I JUST USED THE EXPRESSION: 24/7!!! AAAAARRRRRGGGGHHH) ROY COOKE, IS OF COURSE, THE CLASSIC EXAMPLE OF THIS. HERE WE HAVE, ON OF THE BEST AUTHORS AND PLAYERS OF THE GAME, YET WHAT DOES HE DO? BECOMES A REAL ESTATE BROKER. I DON'T KNOW HIM, BUT I'M QUITE CERTAIN, THAT THIS MAKES HIM A MUCH, MUCH BETTER PLAYER, THAN IF HE DID NOTHING BUT POKER. SO Y'ALL, WHEN YOU ARE BUDGETING YOUR MONEY, CONSIDER THE EXPENSE "BANKROLL INCREASE" TO BE ANOTHER VITAL "BILL" THAT YOU MUST PAY, JUST AS ARE RENT AND FOOD. IF YOU SPEND ALL YOUR PROFITS, YOU CANNOT PROGRESS UP THE POKER SUCCESS LADDER, UNLESS YOU BECOME SO GOOD, THAT YOU CAN HAVE SOMEONE BACK YOU, BUT THAT IS VERY, VERY RARE. | ||
