I'd like to play the following games:
$25NLHE 6max
$10NL FR
$50NL HU (primarily this, but only with a buyin of $20 same with villian)
$5.20 DoN
PLO 9max .10/.25

on any given 'session' i would be playing 'this or that'
$25NL 6max - 2 tables (what i enjoy the most)
$10NL FR - 4 tables (i suck at this, but feel like i should get better)
$50NL HU - 1 table (my most natural game, but so hard to handle swings)
$5.20 DoN - 4 to start, w/ a new register every time one finishes
PLO 9max - 3 tables (collect FPP and wait to stack people w/ huge draws)

basically, i want to feel comfortable playing in any of these games on any random session. keep in mind that i don't feel i need something obscene like $2000+ just for the $50NL based on the fact that i will never buy in for that much. of course i expect with the cost of other things, the BR will be a ton more than i want to hear. but i'm just saying that i'mvery picky when it comes to picking my games is all. i don't have to buy in for max, in the other guys aren't either, right?

Extras:
Software
2-3 coaching sessions from somebody who isn't a pro. basically, i want to pay somebody to let me pick their brain and learn their game. let me obv. their games play while i'm on skype with them, and they basically speak their mind about the game out loud.
and of course, spend a little time teaching me a thing or two about my own game.



how much would i need to BR for something like this? i plan to play @ either FTP and try to get 30% RB, or find some place with a sick depo. bonus. any tips for that either? also, slightly off topic, but it does have to do with bank roll in a sense.
what's this i hear about FTP reducing your agreed upon rake back based on bonuses you clear from them and such?

thanks well in advance, guys.

and by bankroll, i mean, how much money do i need up front to get this rolling. obviously the money to buy software isn't technically going to be part of my final bankroll, but you get the picture =D

If your bankroll isn't horribly important, I'd say

$750 for $25 6max
$200 for $10 FR
$1500 for $50 HU
$1000 for PLO .10/.25

DoNs idk about

kiko sanchez is about right. but just a piece of advice, i would concentrate on one discipline... 6max cash games are completely different to full ring as is NLHE to PLO as are ring games to SnG's. you will severely stunt your development as a poker player if you attempt to develop a growing bankroll by playing all thes games. choose one and master it

Low stakes DON's you can get by quite comfortably on 30-50 buyins if you know what you're doing.

It's 27%. Also their $600 deposit bonus is pretty sick imo (though you might not be able to clear it completely playing micros).

Bonus is deducted from rakeback. So if you rake $100/month and receive a $30 bonus, you get ($100 - $30)*0,27 = $18,90 in rakeback. $58,90 total.

Oh, and FTP doesn't have DoN's.
