Default I dont know how to document

I lost about $20 right before work yesturday playing 5 card draw, I was kinda mad that I lost this so didnt document it here.

well I gained most of it back today plus cleared $10 in bonus so not sure how to document it here. This has got to go on the trust factor since I never said I was playing so dont know if you believe me or not.

my bankroll is 176.12 and ive played a total of about 150 hands from yesturday draw game and this morning games to get the money back. So you can either believe me or I will start back at $100 when I get $24 more dollars your all choice.

right now im sitting at samos with $51 which is a $25 NL table if you like to look.

You need to start playing by the rules. In order for a session to count, you have to post here when you start it. Otherwise, whether you win or lose, it doesn't count towards the contest. So, IMO, neither of those two secret sessions of yours should count.

I really don't feel like digging through all of your posts to figure out what your bankroll is, but again, only sessions you posted when you started and stopped count. And you should make a new post for each instead of editing the old one.

The rules are pretty simple. Just follow them.

Yeah, none of this counts since it wasn't posted prior to playing. If you could post stuff like that people could play and only ost their winning sessions, which while nice, isn't what this is about.

Prior to this post (the one I quoted) you had $142.87 with 1345 hands played....

Again, since you waited till you were up 100%+ from your buyin before mentioning it, this really should not count either. As with the game in general, you take the chance of going up or down in a session....
Before this your contest bankroll was $142.87, so winning +$2 you have $144.87 with 1370 hands played.
Other than the "about $27" the way you documented this session was ok.
Won: $25.60 + $15.50 = $41.10
New bankroll: $144.87 with 1463 hands played

That is where you start from here. Regardless of how much money you have in one site, many sites, or online in general, this is your CONTEST bankroll. There is no need for "reserve"s, just wins, losses, and hands played to add, subtract from your contest bankroll.

So, when ending a session the MINIMUM amount of info is:

Ending Session #
Won/Loss: +/-$00.00
Hands played in session: ##

If you want to keep your own running totals that is fine (some do/some don't)

And the session needs to be documented before (or as you are STARTING) it.

Not to be a pest, but...

Blibbity, when can we expect a pretty little spreadsheet (which by the way I think is very sexy of you )

Very well said. This was al I expected Brian to do for himself. I wasn't going to do it, but if you are willing to do it for him, so be it.

I REALLY think people should have to keep track of their total bankrolls though. It's just simple addition (or subtraction) at the end of each session. You know what you started with. You know what you sat down with, You know what you end with. Put that all together and you know where you are at now...... and therefore where you will be starting the next session. Pretty easy.
