I shouldnt have added the amount i had won here becuase it was more of a thankyou to the site owner and thanks for the welcome,
I totally agree playing a $25 bankroll in a table that would make me lose it instantly was silly but look at this logic,
If i lose i reload with my money, in fairness i will have to deposit becuase i will want to cash out sometime,
I intially took the bankroll to get a feel for internet poker i didnt in the slightest expect to do what i did in one night, $25 - $265 in a total of 70 hands, is almost virtually impossible, i stopped when i felt uncomfortable with what i had in front of me,

Whilst i appreciate your concerns in this post about bankroll managment i have been playing for 4 years live events and cash casino's i hold up well usually leaving with +2 buyins and a min, and of course sometimes there is downswings, i am aware extremely that taking a shot is dangerous but for me it has paid off.
as you can see some of the members (men) here can be a bit sharp and occasionally they even throw there toys out the pram, but dont worry they love us really, if they get to annoying just tell them to fook off, well done again getting the roll up to a good size , yes you gambled but hey it was freemoney so what the hell, like you say theres allways that deposit option even though we hate doing it, now you can practice that bankroll management, I dont play cash games just tourneys and stgs and been runing bad this year ,lol, but I wont moan at you, anyway again well done,gl,
Look at all the negative posts above and smile, at least you didnt get any thumbs down I usally get at least 1,lol

Yeah I want to hear about your money now ? Have you made deposit and starting to cash them out ? it would be nice that you would read more about poker and do not lose this money, try to boost your bankroll

Well, i didnt play last night because i went to the casinofor the evening, funded by the other half.
I havent played today sundays are always bad so i havent lost anything
I am not disputing for a second that a streak can end fast and i also agree that that i have a lot of work to do to stay within bankroll rules for internet poker,
i think poker is fun and i really enjoy it, even when im losing in live games!
Midnight gets what im saying here, i promise that i will try and stay within bankroll.
Midnight, i dont play torneys or SnG's mainly becuase i find them boring and in the majority un profitable. but if you play on party poker shout me and i will play a game with you perhaps if we sit at the table my streak will rub on you?

nice start for a 25$ no deposit and good luck for the next games but tourneys and sng´s are not unprofitable maybe for you so every player find his own style one player is a cashgame player the other a sng or tourney player and the other can play profitable in cash,sng and tourneys for me i dont like cashgame online maybe a little bit omaha, in live games yeah i love cashgame but not online .So i play profitable in sng´s and tourneys online.But more profitable in live games cash and tourney´s it´s better for me to see the other players and i´ve see not a dealer mistake till yet when i play in a serious live casino.
