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.

What if you are drunk out of your mind or smoked some serious purple hair before the session?

Then I will probably have to pull up the calculator anyway to try to figure out how $100+ $20 = $346.82

ONCE....and it looks like it was time wasted anyway since he requested to be off the list and out of the contest....
It is MUCH easier if players put the "Total Bankroll:...., Total Hands played:##" at the end of their "ending session" post, since then I just put those totals over to the leaderboard (NO MATH ) unless something looks out of whack.

The win/loss and hands played for the session is key though or things just get wacky
