0 of my own money. I lost only what I earned from free freerolls with real money. But it sure wasn't much

I am winning, not loosing money on poker.
Play free rolls and win.
That is my motto.
You can’t loose, if you play a free roll.

I'm a plus player at all poker rooms where I'm registered. I am also a plus player in offline poker. Although I admit, I haven't played that much in offline compared to online poker. But I hope to rectify that someday. :unsure:

Played first freeroll in 2003 i took first place....ive financed over 100 poker rooms I never deposited money didnt win in freerolls till hmm 2016 or 2018 range....ive put in maybe 500 dollars on acr....Acr is where had first big win was over 3k in 2003...I have done incredibly well in poker in as said over 100 sites over the years....I have rules I follow from jump very stringent rules that work most of the time....My stats i killed some time ago cause didnt want people to see me coming if possible.... In 2007 i was listed on bluff and other sites...sharkscope looks bad but its mainly acr....the whole truth is not there and im ok with it cause doesnt show winnings but during that time frame the 500 im still up at acr not sure how missed wins but sharkscope did...is what it is....freerolls are a good place to start...Im a planner why the rules ive learned to use etc...I used to keep very stringent records now im disabled more then even retired at 55 in poker and otherwise im playing for fun is all... been member here forever great people to play know competition is fierce id put it in 5 dollar mtt range in a freeroll or even 2/4 nlh cash games...its tough if you join the leagues freerolls you will get tested and your game will improve ...i prefer live play by a TON and dont like certain rng's online poker...I like omaha pl best for cash or tournaments probably now....change happened during covid probably....i got more serious playing that and made some good change

I won a bunch of money but I lost so much time. And then I burned a whole bunch of that won money on sports betting and roulette in the casino, so that makes the lost time even worse.

I've been playing poker for about 5-6 years. Over all these years, I definitely haven't spent more than $150-200, definitely not more. I get income from the game, but this income is earned solely by playing in our daily freerolls, increasing my bankroll and spending this money to play in my favourite tournaments.

I don't want to jinx it, but for now I'm playing poker with a small profit.

At first I lost $100 by making $10 deposits on pokerstars, but then I won it all back and now I don’t make deposits, I only play freerolls.

Not a Dime! not even a single Penny!
I started playing with Fun Money on FaceBook, Then Started playing Freerolls on many different sites, and only ever started to buy-in to games when I felt confident enough to play with the cash I had won from the Freerolls.
It is far from easy money but what isn't? It just takes time and Patience, and now I'm retired I have plenty of time to play when I want.

nothing because I’m in the green, if I look at my live and online results. i know I've spent thousands in buy-ins over the years of playing.

even if I wasn’t up, I wouldnt think about how much i spent / loss while playing. i see it as a hobby / form of entertainment. i don't think about money spent / lost when i go to a casino and play slots, but lottery tickets, or bet on a sports team. poker is the same.

In terms of money. Zero. But sometimes it costs time and study. I think there are two factors that take up more routine space if you want to evolve in poker.

I think it cost me more time than money, because a tournament can last 4-5 hours easily. Nowadays I only play poker when I don't have nothing else more interesting to do, because if I think about the time spent and the money I've won it does not worth it.

I already win money in poker, but it wasn't always like that. At the beginning of the game, there was a loss of about $600. Now other problems 888 does not want to withdraw $ to me.

Both in terms of time and money, but well, when you like something and you know it will work in the long run, you evaluate the costs differently

Actually, it doesn't cost me anything because I only play freerolls
