    Just weighting in. First KJ, posts like your annual results are invaluable especially for relative noobs. I did a couple of months on a practice budget with spreads between 10 and 50 just to get the lay of the land and at the suggestion of some of the real aps on here.

    Now I've had about 7 weeks at my intended ramp. After six weeks I was up 11k then I lost 5k in one night at my best store.

    Here is the thing, because of the sharing of experienced APs, I was neither expecting my winning streak to last or caught off guard by my 5k loss. As a matter of fact, I slept fine after the loss, I had been expecting it since I was above EV, playing 17 to 20 hours a week. I think without the knowledge gained from this site, I would have been thrown into shock by the loss or been way to cocky from the wins.

    I'm finding it is a grind but generally there could be worse things. Happy new year everyone. Hoping I'm around at the end of the year to share my results.

    Sorry for the confusion. 10 to 50 was my spread while I was considering myself in training. I played for about two months at this level. I stepped up to my full ramp (max bet 2x250. with the occassional supermax of 2x300). That is my current ramp. I won 11k then lost 5k back in one night.

    Borderline black chipper just because of the 40-to-1 spread. Still the green chipper by definition though.

    Thread closed as it has to do with 2014, as well as someone is attempting to hijack it. Thread may be restarted with a new date by anyone.
