I don't think you have the right to tell anyone what money is easy to replace or not. To some people yes $26 is nothing but to others thats a decent chunk of change. If op wants to consider that a bankroll he absolutely can. Also technically a bankroll is the amount of money you have available to use for poker, if thats 25 or 2500 its whatever you determine, so you are both out of line and incorrect here. And finally, whatever money you won is not meaningless, he started at $25 and is at $26.5, yeah its not a ton but he something he worked for and earned, I don't see anyone saying your bankroll is worthless and meaningless. Lets be a bit more considerate to the newer players instead of bashing them
