Poker Winnings: Did you buy anything special?

RogueRivered · Apr 11, 2016

Since you're members of CardsChat, I assume that you all have poker winnings.

My question is, did you buy anything special with your winnings? Or are you planning to? Like maybe there was some item you were saving up for once your bankroll got high enough.

Right now I'm thinking I want to try to earn enough poker money to buy a new gun. That would be cool if I could finance it through winnings. That sounds like an obtainable goal for me, and it's more rewarding than looking at my measly hour rate.

I have never thought about withdrawning any money. I just go up to the next level and so on.

I suppose one day I will have to make some sort of decision.
Maybe fund our poker cruise in 2025.

bike (250 $) .. laptop (350 $), clothing and footwear (300 $) two e-cigare(100$)

)

I always when I win some prize in poker, I usually always spend with electronic tours tours, because I think you only win then do nothing with the money of Poker would not be fun.

Paid off some student loan debt back when online poker was booming and neteller was the norm for moving money around. God, I miss those days.

I just try to go up to the next level myself. Save the money in case there are wsop satellites in years to come! I love playing for a chance at the Main Event.

I'm just a small time recreation player so I stick to the same limits (mostly) and pretty much make about the same amount each year online.
Last year I bought 2 1/4 oz. gold Maples, 2 10 oz. RCM silver bars and had just enough left to treat myself to a good Keg steak and lobster dinner and a night at the movies.
It's not really a lot for a year of playing, but then again I'm only playing while watching tv and unwinding from work.

Last season of league play, I bought an indoor/outdoor wireless thermometer !!!

Oooh, I like this idea best so far. Imagine getting to sit there and look at all the gold and silver you have won! That would be awesome and a good motivator to win more.

I was gonna get a laptop from carbon points, and a cake with cake points.

Next check, I'll make special plans.

Back in 2007, I started playing poker to support my DVD collection.
Ended up buying a car (Mazda 2, nothing fancy) instead, late 2008.

Now I'm just grinding it up until I make it to NL25. And then I'll see. No plans yet.

Yermek · Apr 25, 2016

On his win, I bought a new low-profile wheels on the car. The gun is not worth buying. From weapons too much violence

Sakolik029 · Apr 25, 2016

I've been playing for a year,but still have never won such an amount that I could buy for this money)

korneel · Apr 25, 2016

I would love to be able to buy a new bed with my poker money...

Henry Minute · Apr 25, 2016

I have cashed out part of my enormous winnings several times to buy myself rewards.

Mostly it's an ice-cream but occasionally a beer.

A few years ago I used money that I had won playing poker to move across the country.
