I don't keep track of home games ($10 buy-in), but I am probably ahead $200-$300 since we began playing a little over a year ago.
I started playing online about 6 months ago on Pokerstars, but haven't played there in about 4 months...I am up a total of $45 there.
And does anyone remember that Powerplayer $10 free thing a long time ago? Well, I took that $10 promo up to over $600 in the past couple months playing only $5 and $10 SNG's. (And I have proof!!) You had to be real lucky at first and win your first couple SNG's, but I got lucky and did and have continued rising. I wish I had more time to play.
I would recommend that you read some books as well. I read Super System and The Theory of Poker (couldn't put them down) and learned so much. After reading I realized all of the things a do wrong (still a lot of things sometimes) but it changes your approach to the game and will surely improve your play. My winning % definately improved after reading and learning more about the game. Also, strategy forums like the 2+2 forums and Texasholdem-poker.com forums were helpful, though I don't visit them very much anymore.
