Some people don't need the money or don't have any financial responsibilities, so they they tend
to gamble a bit more than most and push the limits of their bankroll (me).

Then ouch. Nothing sucks more than winning big at the end of one year and losing big at the start of the next and playing on a bankroll essentially owned by the IRS.

When I first started playing about 2 1/2 years ago, I had deposited like $500 on one of the Crypto sites just to try it out. Had played some Sit-n-Gos on UB for $5 and decided to Bonus Whore....

Anyway, tried a little $1/2 limit for a while and lost a chunk. Moved to NL$100 and lost a chunk....finally on my last buy-in (what's bankroll requirements?!?) at NL$100 on like my 2nd hand I got KK and Raised, was re-raised, I raised again and called a push....he had AA but I sucked out.

After that, went on a heater to build the roll (started learning the game) and never looked back. Kinna wonder what might have happened had I lost that hand.

got a 10k+ bankroll from $26 i had in partpoker last september, 9-01-2005

ok here's the story

a little over a year ago i started playing online poker. i started out was playing $5, $10 $20 SnG's and quickly moved up to $50 $100 Sng's and won about 2k in 2 weeks. Over the next month or so i lost that cash back.

I played here and there lost $50 here $100 there then stopped for a few months. I used some of my PartyPoker point to get into a freeroll tourny and can u belive it i came in 3rd out of 1300 people. That was $275 in my account, so i started playing cash games $50 and $100 NL 6max. Turn my $275 into $700 in a week or 2 then lost it all back down to $26 omg. Thats right just $26. i told my self i had to win just $10 a day for the next month. I got that $26 up to $600 in a month and i never looked back.

got a 10k br now from $26 i had in 9-01-2005
