Default Your biggest rush starting with not a lot of $$$

I cashed out a few months ago and haven't played much online since. Since I don't feel like making a deposit I want to build up the few bucks I have in my account (~50) into a decent amount

For motivation let me hear some brags about how you turned nothing into something quickly...including how much you started with, how much you ended with, how fast you did it and what you played (Cash games, sng, mtt, etc)

Last night on Sportsbook.com poker site,
Had 12 bucks in there.

Entered a single table SNG turbo, 6$, won it.

Then took monies to 25 NL, won there, got to 42 bucks.

Took $42 to 200 nl, about fourth hand got AA Under the gun.

Went all in, got the perfect one caller with 88, won,
Then got AK in late pos, raised it to 10.
Button raised it to 20. I called, flop was KK5. Before I had a chance to think about what to bet, he goes all in and has me covered. I instacall. He has AA.

I get out of the table with 362.

Took about 2 hours total.

Good luck!

I chopped two tournies with chief that ended his BBV bomber run (10k not pictured)... that started my run from the 500 he transferred me to the 43k (at one point, am currently back down to 36ish due to tilt and lack of NL skills) run that i've had..

not going to go apeshit with the graphs/pt ss's etc...but when i went home for christmas break like a month ago i had 0$ on online poker and about 102$ in my checking acct. 2nd day home my friend convinces me to play a 20$ sng on bodog with him as he has a couple hundred on there. this was post legislation so bodog at this point was pretty much the only site still accepting direct u.s. bank transfers.

so, pretty much i end up winning this sng. take the 100$ to two 50nl cash games and over the course of the day win about $400. mix in 100nl, get up to 1k the day later, lose half, rinse, repeat a few times. so im at $800 and at this point i need to cash out some dough cause i have 4$ in my checking acct. cash out $300. i break even for a couple days and then get coolered and tilt off my entire roll. with like 100 left i decide to do a donkament since my success in them is retardingly good, 1st one ever at the site i 2nd for $1300, 2/3 in chips get ai K9s vs 89 8 flop gg.

so at this point i have $1400 in my account and i cash out another $700 cause i want an xbox 360 that i havent even gotten yet go figure.[censored]. since then ( 2 weeks ago ) ive run the 700 up to 2k. over about 3.5k hands of 100nl and 300nl 6max on bodog. im up 1400 and an avg of 18ptbb/100 at 100nl and a buyin at 300nl over like 500 hands. this is only really the second time ive ever had a "decent" cash game roll. (the last was over a year ago before prep school[i couldnt play poker at my pg school and ended up spending my entire roll on car/college]). hopefully i wont bust this roll before i start taking this seriously and start getting better.

anyways damn thats long im blunted and good luck

cliffnotes: on my 2nd attempt of creating a roll for 1/2nl and 2/4nl 6max, i turn 20$ into over $3,000 winning a 20$ sng, 25+2 donkament for 1300 and the rest at 100nl and 300nl. ive cashed out $1500 because i am a broke college student and i have a 2k roll right now that will hopefully be robusto as [censored].
