PT is much more useful for cash games IMO. For MTTs/SNGs all I use PT for is to keep track of all my games as if it were a piece of accounting software. I also use PT as a way to store HHs for later review. I don't use any real-time/HUD info while playing.

Cut from a post she made in the thread: For the bankroll management part: - For limit games, you need 550 big bets - For no-limit games, you need 45 buyins. For the cashout part: - Figure out your hourly expected rate. Important: BE VERY CONSERVATIVE! - For every two hours of play, remove your hourly rate from your bankroll. Example: You make $8/hr playing 2-4 NLH. You 4-table, so you expect to make $32 on average. Pay yourself $16/hr.

Ack, I think you are talking about my spreadsheet. I have no idea what I did to post it since I'm a noob. I'll try to figure it out so that people can get it.

This is where I originally tried to post this: Spreadsheet for Jennifear's Bankroll/Cashout Plan (Excel UPDATE!) Maybe the link in there still works.

[quote user="Russ P"]If I continue to put in this type of volume do you suggest getting PT3 + HUD or HEM? I know many successful cash game grinders use a HUD but how useful is having one when multi tabling MTT's?[/quote] I still use PT2 but I really only use it for accounting purposes/tracking results. I will record HHs on UB/FTP/Stars but I don't actively filter my opponents stats with them. I'm much more concerned with the tournament summaries.

IIRC you need at least 500 points before you can cash them in.

I can try to answer this as I've been using her system for almost a year now with great success. I'm sure she'll pop on here sometime soon but in the meantime: If you are still in the stages of trying to build up your bankroll, she would suggest keeping most of what you win in the bankroll. The reason being that with the way the system works, the higher the buy-ins you can play, the more you will pay yourself out with the plan.
