Default Re: How did you get your BANKROLLS********************

Got $10 free from royal vegas, played a few tiny STTs and broke about even, then came second in a freeroll for around $100.
Then started from the smallest NL stakes on prima and am now playing 5/10 NL on pokerroom over-rolled. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

My friend got $50 on Stars for his birthday almost two years ago. I asked to borrow a dollar and brought it all to the .01/.02. Got it up to 5 real quick, but then busted.
So the obvious choice was to ask for another dollar. That one lasted a couple orbits.
Well, the third dollar was the one that finally caught. Been grinding it up ever since. I have never had to deposit my own money.

$5-$30 home game tournaments....
started playing the following limits live, got lucky in that my holdem play was good enough to win fromt he start and an omaha8 book saved my life
$3-6 & $4-8 limit HE and O8
$4-10 O8
$5-10 HE
ran good for first 2 months (so no busto), never looked back, now playing $2-5 NL and $15-30 limit (all live) while donking around playin $1-2, $2-4 NLHE, NLO8, and PLO8 online

i did almost go busto at one point where I was going to donate plasma in order to rebuild bankroll, ran good for a weekend and got lucky in order to cancel appointment

A lot of the bad players in my weekly game in college ($0.5/1 NLHE) donated plasma in order to have $50/week to lose in my home game, now I just graduated, I am going to miss those guys

Yeah, he got his three bucks back when I got up to like 20 or so. The vig on that would be ridiculous by now, especially if he wanted a cut of what I made from it.
