[QUOTE="feitr, post: 825600, member: 34106"] So I'm a little confused now. Do you intend to move to vegas and play live poker or planning to do this online??? I really wouldn't advise trying to go pro with live poker unless you have a HUGE amount of money behind you/live experience. I honestly wouldn't bother trying to do anything with $8. It just isn't enough. I still think you should try to deposit a smaller amount just to see if you can actually beat the micro cash games and get a part time job to help out your BR. Couldn't you do what tenbob said? Look for a shitty labour job that you can do for a couple of weeks and work for $10/hr. 2 weeks and you could deposit enough to play some decent stakes (obviously depends where you live as to this being realistic or not). But i'm pretty hesitant about suggesting that you deposit a decent amount if you can't necessarily beat the stakes you would start playing. Obviously it is better to deposit $50/$100 and perhaps realise you have too much to work on in your game to consider going pro, than to deposit $500 and lose alot more. I have no idea about limit, but you might want to consider playing SnGs at lower stakes. Everytime I've started a BR from small amounts i've always started with micro SnGs. Now i don't actually like SnGs, but i also don't like grinding cash games at anything less than NL25, so I've always played SnGs at the start (unless it is a site that offers a good deposit bonus, in which case i tend to deposit the max and start cash right away) then moved up to cash once i hit about 500$. If you try to start from $8 it could take you months to get to decent stakes. If you are about to beat micro stakes, it is very reasonable, and i mean VERY reasonable to go from $50 to over $500 in a couple of weeks on Stars. But i also think you really need to realise that you must be able to beat the micro stakes before you want to start playing around with larger sums of money. [/QUOTE]
