muddawgg · Oct 15, 2008

i dont deposit money . i have been over 100.00 twice but useally stay between 30-50 dollars playing on pstars. i play 2.20 sunday two hundred and use the tourney. 1.00 sit&gos now back to freerolls broke 3rd time

SeanyJ · Oct 15, 2008

I went broke once, but I used my FPPs in the satellites to the Sunday 100k to rebuild and haven't looked back.

Lost my initial $50 deposit. Started taking it seriously with my second $50 deposit, and with proper BRM it'll never happen to me again.

kingme620 · Oct 16, 2008

I've only gone broke off of BR's I got from freerolls. Whenever I deposit I'm within my br, so it hasnt happened yet.

When I was playing alot and managing my bankroll I played for 2 years without ever coming close to going broke.

Now I never have much to start with, so I usually build for a while, then get drunk and blow it.

wooo · Oct 16, 2008

i went broke 2 times.
Then i started useing bankroll management and everything is great.

I've been broke numerous times but now I can't seem to deposit money because my bank doesn't like gaming transactions. UB gave me $10 so I had to use that but now I got a 6 figure bankroll on UB. I got 89 bucks on cake. I blew all my money on FT when I got unlucky playing higher than I should have.

I have not went broke yet but I tend to play cautiously I lose sometimes ... but only small amounts I dont wager more then I can stand to say goodbye too

dweezel · Oct 18, 2008

Never went broke .......(knock on wood) ...and never deposited either...
Have about 300 on PS and FTP.

ph_il · Oct 18, 2008

I go for broke everyday.

jokish123 · Oct 18, 2008

well this is like my 4th time after having a bankroll that i have gone broke ...usually takes me about 2-3 weeks to bust my roll....so it happens to everyone..

The problems is that you have to start with more then a $100 deposit...Otherwise there is no room to run into a downslope

smd173 · Oct 18, 2008

I don't really like to consider it going broke, because I always have the means to put money online. But I have gone busto probably about 6 times. 7th time seems to be the charm though. I have not deposited since June and I've tripled my buy in, so hopefully I won't be depositing any time soon.

ra64 · Oct 18, 2008

went broke once on pokerstars, after three years, trying to come back with fpp now though.

i'm 10x up on my initial deposit on bodog now.

only made one initial minimum deposit on both sites a long time ago.

califantasy · Oct 18, 2008

Had to re-fund my account several times. Not so much due to bad runs at the card table, rather because I get the itch to bet sports through Bodog as well. I've kept pretty good track though, and cashed for a lot more than I've deposited over the last few years.

It would be quicker to tell you when I've had money in the accounts..

ActAsIf · Oct 18, 2008

You and me both. We could be from the same litter of dogs playing poker. lol

roker · Oct 19, 2008

how many times tonight or overall ???

also, i can put lipstick on a pig but i am still crap at poker :icon_porc :icon_porc :icon_porc

naruto_miu · Oct 19, 2008

Personally it's been to much to count (I really forget), but here's something, a close yet rough guess would have to be around 30-40times (maybe even more), but now haven't gone broke, just learnt to cashout

PokerVic · Oct 19, 2008

Although I don't consider losing my online BR 'going broke', I've been disciplined enough to avoid it so far. I've had some serious backslides, but by dropping down stakes and examining my game, I've been able to grind back each time.

Deltafrost · Oct 20, 2008

I went broke probably 4 times, then i made a $200 deposit so i was rolled for 10 nl, started reading some books and reading ALOT on here. that was 2 months ago. Now im playing 25nl and over halfway rolled for 50... I really think 2nl is a joke and I simply couldnt get away from tptk. now that ive learned to do that my biggest leak was plugged

tonydamage · Oct 20, 2008

i've technically never gone broke. why? because i keep my online pokerbankroll on a bank account specifially for online poker. every cent came from poker - albeit from different sites. atm, its around $5k - was around $14k but i "CASHED OUT" $9K for a dp on a beamer. whenever i want to play on a specific site, i deposit the buyin (say 100 xBB x4 if i plan on multi-tabling). after the session, i cashout immediately. call me weird, but this is how i do it. better safe than sorry

Are you saying you ran $10 to over $100,000 ? How long?

josh_dei8 · Oct 20, 2008

I've never deposited, and all my small winnings from freerolls wouldnt last but 3 or 4 games. I now have some on pokerstars that I have built up from the summer olympics and have been grinding away on the double or nothings and $1 sng's. If I play within my br, I shouldnt bust again. But I'm not sure if it matters, as Kentucky is about to do away with the internet poker if the PPA doesnt win the battle

how many times have you gone broke?
