while it is true that it is impossible to "go busto" when you have always been busto, i don't think that's what the OP meant

i got a free $10 at 7sultans poker......... and that was enough

Re: how many times have you gone busto
 
yeah, gotta be more specific. when i was 17 i used to deposit online from my part time job and lose it all so i probably went busto like 10 times.

however, since i actually started to make money, i've never gone busto

I deposited $50 at Party Poker several years ago. Have never deposited again. The funny thing is, I'm not much better than a break even player.

Re: how many times have you gone busto
 
when i was playing just for fun and not caring like 10 times at least. once i took it seriously, 0.

Re: how many times have you gone busto
 
i think it's 6 but honestly i lost count. 2 straight years of busto in college will blur your memory of these things.

Re: how many times have you gone busto
 
I can only remember one time I went busto since i started playing semi-seriously. It was just bad luck+ bad BR management + unexpected expenses + playing horribly due to tilt all at the same time, not a winning combo imo.

Re: how many times have you gone busto
 
Had to move down from $200NL to $50NL after playing way to thin a few years back when I was only semi-pro. Bustoed my FTP account with like $35K in in it but I still had lots to redeposit with. Really wish I had a definition of Busto, but this is BBV and posts are supposed to suck here I guess.

Re: how many times have you gone busto
 
I was pretty damn close to busto at the beginning of the year. I turned things around and have had a ridiculous year since compared to what I'd done in the past.

I think I lost my first couple $25 deposits on UB years ago, but the 3rd was a charm and I've never been officially busto since.

Re: how many times have you gone busto
 
I've never gone truly busto meaning $0.00 in all my poker accounts I have been down to $5 and less before but never got all the way. Lowest i've been is 23 cents but luckily i'm expert at .02/.04 lhe.

Went busto on my original roll on Party blackjack. I'm so glad Full Tilt doesn't have blackjack.

i find it hard to belive that since the poker boom that 46% of people who answered this post on this have NEVER gone busto. if you have never gone busto, and you are not a millionaire you just suck ass. i have bustoed probably 12 or 13 times, and have still made aprox 40k in PROFITS between live and the interwebs, and if i had never gone busto i imagine that i would have made close to 500k by now not even playing full time. and in my opinion, i have only the slightest edge gainst breakeven msnl players. i would venture to say IMO the number of players who have actually never been busto is closer to 15% again just my opinion.

I'm not sure you can estimate the actual number of bustoers, but I agree with your basic point here - so many more people have gone busto than are admitting here. And if not, this thread is obviously not a good sample of the SS/MSNL community in general. This might actually make sense, though, since these are 2p2ers posting and we all know 2p2ers are all megapokersuperstars.

Re: how many times have you gone busto
 
4-5 times maybe. Last time I had less then 4$ in my everest account online. I started at nl2 shortstack and I worked my way up to a 5 digit bankroll in 3 months.

But then, recently I lost it all back and I had 200$ left. I play and I'm well rolled for nl100 at the moment and hopefully no more busto for me.

ahhh...thats right i forgot there all superstars. in reality im sure if we all had to show our deposit histories, that many of the people who claim to have never gone busto, are frequent deposit junkies, that while i suppose they actaully never went "BUSTO", they have been doen to a level that they could not play anything but the smallest stakes, and had to re-deposit many times.
therfore i suppose that they never went busto, although i consider busto to be down to 25% of your original BR. for example if your starting Bankroll is $600. and you get beat down to say $140 -$150 bucks, technicly you are not "busto" but you are severely limited as to what games you can play in, basicly having to risk your remaining roll to continue. obv if your staring roll was 150 then you would have ben whidled down to $40..etc.etc.
i will admit that many times however i have been to flat assed ZERO, even on party sadly, but i leraned from it and now i....still have to hump a day job
