I am definately addicted to gambling, so the story of my bankroll is not a pretty one. Time and time again (about once every month) I lose my composure and lose 50-80% of my bankroll. I have done this for two years, trying everything.

Nowadays I have $1000 and I only have ten buy-ins online for the level where I play. The rest in the bank. In the future, and on higher levels, I will make sure that I have 50 buy-ins.

I get bored with poker pretty easily, so I have to change it up... Or at least I used to, sh NL is quite a bit of fun at somewhat higher stakes. I think I might stay here for a while.

I didn't want to put money into poker from other sources, so I started with play money on UB. After about a week, they paid me $5 for a royal flush, which I turned into about $700 in 6 weeks by playing $0.01-$0.02 limit, then NL $2, then SNGs, and cashed most of that out. I still haven't deposited on UB.

I started bonus-whoring, mainly blackjack at first, and cleared a total of about $25k worth of bonuses in the first year. After that, I started taking NL seriously, with several hundred buy-ins at NL $100. I've moved up when I have felt comfortable since my bankroll is not a limitation.

25$ on VCpoker on may 05 - lost in 15 min
25$ on VCpoker on may 05 - lost in 2 days
25$ on VCpoker on may 05 - lost in a week
25$ on VCpoker on may 05 - ran it to about a 1000, than hit a negative streak, moved up again and again to get even and had 1$ left.
Started grinding the 1$ on microstakes, bought some books, PT and didn't deposit ever since.
