Message: [QUOTE="Poker Orifice, post: 1110439, member: 33113"] I watch alot of the online pros (the guys who run deep in the bigger buyins on Fulltilt) fairly often and was quite surprised to hear one day on a final table when two guys were HeadsUp and were considering a chop. The one guy's stats. showed his MTT profit at over $90,000 but he didn't have $2,300 in his account to send to the other guy. My guess is.. he takes out alot, lol. Also discovered though with this guy is that he is a 'bankroll assisted player' (and found out that ALOT of them are... in some of the large field, bigger buyin mtts on Fulltilt, there'll be guys who have action on a dozen or more players in it). I think your question was already answered above in another's response here (it's a personal thing dependent upon the individual). I play merely for a hobby myself (but also play to win, lol) so I have no expertise on the topic although I've read some suggested advice in books written by poker pros (quote from Big Tony's book 'Tony Kaufman', if you win a substantial cash in a tournament, be sure to treat yourself right after it, ie. 'go on that trip', 'purchase that car',... "It's important to see some substantiated physical proof of your success...... then invest another portion of it in something solid (real estate) and then set yourself up with another 6mos. worth of buyins). I hope to one day start playing some decent buyin mtts online so for now I don't have to concern myself too much with withdrawling any funds (although I do sell some FT bucks to friends on occassion... easier than doing a withdrawl). For online play, personally I think I'd want to have at least $10k prior to taking any money out, as I'd like to be rolled to play in $216 buyins one day (for now I'll stick to mostly the micros, lol). GL on the tables!! [/QUOTE]
