I made about 500$ from actionpoker $150 no deposit bonus, but got a bad beat and it went down to about 200$. After that I'm regulary deposit some money there and play with it.

I would say a lot of people on this site made a lot of money from ndb ..... i myslf have only got 1 ndb so far and its from Bigbet got $10 and at present have it up to $124 plus a lot of work still to go to finish it as i am only starting level 4..... but i did a thread recently and asked how much people put into poker weekly and a large amount said they never put there own money into poker have built there bankrolls up from the free money offers ... have to say it was very impressive

Aw come on, all you need to do is stick to a tighter BRM and less sportsbetting and you'll be well on your way to building a big BR . You can always read some poker books if you're not confident in your game. I usually just chat with other players and review our handhistories, it always helps

I have never been at zero and I have deposited at sites I like for extra bonus tickets etc. I started off playing with mcsnakeys favorite play money, then about a week into playing someone said freeroll, had no idea what that was, played it, won 1st and went from there.

All I can say is now that you know how to be a losing player, you are ready to become a winning player. After mastering the art of losing, by now you should know why you lose and be able to avoid it more often in the future. Poker isn't just about winning all the time (although it really is), but it's also about not losing the max amount of money when you lose-keeping your losses to a min when you do lose. (I hope this crap makes sense, if not then just pass this by and ignore me people)

I have only made out of one of my NDB that was on partypoker a few years ago... I really hated the site but was running sweet on it for about 3 months i had cleared the bonus and had about £200 in there (not great but not 0) I made a deposit then cashed out the £200. The £20+ i had left didnt last very long....after withdrawal downswing..lol But i didnt realize i had so many points and a few weeks later cashed them in and hasdanother play on party....didnt last

I've made a bit of money out of a 50$ no deposit bonus, and also took advantage of some neat reload bonuses...don't have millions, but I guess I could get myself a nice christmas present with the money!
