I've won more than I've lost so far.


But I am grinding and grinding and I think my net winnings the last year is like $200.


Last time I made a deposit was in December 2020 - $20 on Unibet.
 
I am slowly, but surely making profit, I've been playing for 2 years now, and my bankroll is +$2000 atm. Tournament poker only.
 
Win or lose more money

Definitely losing more money than winning….. Sadly, I have come close to.final tables… and have premium hands AA or AK suited and somehow I get beat by an A 10 or AQ…. Running bad for years….. the odds should be in my favour to get passed this. So, frustrating…. You spend 7-8 hours playing and get hammered and beat with a marginal hand…. Poker Gods need to shake things up and start sharing the luck proportionately.

Ground out over $6,000 over quite a long time. I play for fun, not money. Taking the game seriously would take the enjoyment out of it.
Poker is the only gambling that has had a positive balance for me long term.
 
I sure made more money than I spent. I used to play a lot of cash games where I live and my city has good customers if you know what I mean lol.
I'm also positive online in almost every room I'm in, but it's not a big deal, but it's positive 🙂

winnnings online don't make up for live results

Since I mainly play free rolls online, and bank most of when I get into the money, I have a tiny bankroll. Live poker, I lose about five bucks a week.

Bad job for years... The odds should be in my favor to get through this. So disappointment... You spend 7-8 hours playing and you get pocketed and beaten with a marginal hand….

Poker GODS have nothing to do with it, it's all about you!!!!!!!
It will seem strange to you, but that's how it is.
Everything in the world is in balance and the more you give, the more you get..Give love and positive to the world. Start thinking positively, thank the world for what you have, Believe in yourself in your strengths and fate will reward you for your patience and perseverance, And if you complain, you will never get up from your knees, up your nose .. gather up a rag, you can , you will be able to, remember FAITH works wonders ...
 
It seems to me how many deposits and winnings, at 0)) well, or at a minus is not enough🙂
 
I play 3 poker rooms, pokerstars, GGpoker, Partypoker.
Each account has around 100 usd at the moment (give or take).
I Started playing freerolls in November 2021.....
Looking to get 10.000 before July 2022 and 150k until May 2023. (Due date for my rehab). If I don't do it - I guess I will stop playing anymore. Its not about playing but I invested a lot of my free time off tables into this and yes, results are coming.
I'm just smiling to everybody who thinks I'm a lunatic...🙂
 
I have earned more from various promotions and freerolls than from playing poker)

I'm up a few $$$,,,,i rarely deposit (don't have to because of CC) and make withdrawls when my account reaches a certain amount.Took out $250 last week from Stars 😀 A $150 from Party 2 weeks ago,,, 😀


That's awesome dude!
 
I won more money in poker than I lost plus I didn't put in any money at all than what I earned from freerolls.
 
I play with a loss of about $100, I mostly play at pokerstars, when there are extra $10 I deposit into my account. I mainly play freerolls, if I can win I play for money and lose it. I still hope that someday I will definitely get a card and in the tournament I will be able to take a high place with good prize money.
 
in my lifetime deffo lost more. but now I'm only trying to play freerolls, and cash games with the money i win so come back to me in 10 years time
 
I started playing on Pokerstars, didn't win much from free-rolls initially and started to play on a site called "Sportsbet" where I was doing well, Playing their free-rolls and winning quite a few. The player base was pretty small and most nights only 30 to 40 players would sign in for the free-roll games.
They also ran Point games where you played every hour for Points which could be used to buy-into Points to Cash games or you could save them and cash in for around 480 Points to the Dollar, The Point games were only 100 Point free-rolls but winning them was easy and at one stage I had over 4,000 Points in my account, .Plus around $150 Dollars in Cash winnings.
One night they stopped playing Poker and closed the site down, preferring to concentrate on the Sports betting side, my winnings were converted into Cash and transferred onto their Sports betting site, and I had to withdraw everything as I explained to them I do not like to Gamble, "But you play Poker" they said, and I replied "Yes! but I have never made a deposit and all the money in my account was from Free-rolls, so how is that gambling?"
I returned to Pokerstars but still didn't win much as the free-rolls there attracted thousands of players but I started to play in Live Local games with the money I won from "Sportsbet", So to be honest, my $600+ Dollars I have in my Pokerstars account Plus the £2,000+ Pounds I have in my home safe are all winnings from poker games which started from playing Free-rolls.
Yes I have won more money than I have lost from playing Poker because after 20+ years of playing Poker for Fun! I have yet to make a deposit on any site, and never risk more than I am willing to lose in any Live Game, and never lost a Dime of my own money. That's the truth and it is simple Bankroll Management

When the fun Stops, STOP!
(words I live by)
 
i can honestly say i have not lost any of my money at Poker. I have not deposited any money but used freerolls etc to gather funds and play with that, once the money runs out i go back to freerolls, have done now for 21 years
 
Yes, I believe I have. I started my online bankroll back in '08 and have made way more withdrawals than deposits. It's not up by 5 figures but it's not down either.
