My first deposit on FTP was in mid December 2004 for $140. In three weeks, I had built it up to around 6K, keeping 4K on FTP and 2K on Party. I then went nuts playing stakes way over my head and lost the majority of it in about 3-4 days.

If I could do it all over, I would have cashed out 3K and then started playing $.50/1 NL with a sufficient bankroll.
