Since there is a forum section like this, i think it's my duty to thank Bankrollmob for offering us no deposit bonuses.
I've been playing for several months now at (cannot say the name of a poker site?). After i received my 7 euros(10 dollars) no deposit bonus i started on playing texas holdem in micro limits. I was able to raise my bankroll and i started to play omaha instead of holdem. Now i have approximately 150 euros in my bankroll(few days ago 190 :< ) and i'm very close for the additional 60$ what you get after you have reached certain amount of points.
I've had a decent start and this would have never happened without Bankrollmob. So thank you.
I hope that someday im able to withdraw some cash to fund my studies.

Congrats rtwl!!
Build a solid bank for microlevels starting with some little no deposit bonuses is difficult to do. In what site you do it? I see the change Holdem for Omaha works to you, i´m thinking to do the same change...

What a nice first post you did. If you already have something good to say about BRM and you are just in the beginning, let me tell you it only gets better and better with time. You will enjoy more no deposit bonus, then you will think about taking profit of a deposit bonus, or one with a gift, that are also very nice. As time goes, you join mobpoints, you try to open the safe, you open the doors in the mobcalendar, you have nothing to lose and a lot to win just waiting for you to give your shot. About advertising, you can say poker sites names, do it if you really have to, and you can write it in a different way from what really is (like Stars, or Party). Welcome and enjoy!

Congratulations and really nice job mate but since you took the no deposit offer from bankrollmob make sure to make public the name of the poker site too
All poker platforms that have ofers on bankrollmob are safe to advertise on the forums

One of the biggest leaks that i used to have is that i played for the money or when i got nothing else to do. Now i only play when i feel like i could play my best and when it's fun.
I don't think i am the right person to give advice to anyone since i am still learning and playing micro stakes . I have managed to make profit for a short period of time by being patient and avoiding big mistakes. What really worries me is the omaha downswing. I've read some scary things about it. I think managing the downswing will be the ultimate test whether you are a good omaha player or not.
I can only hope that it will never happen but i must be prepared for that.
Reading poker articles and poker books is definitely a good advice like Serpang mentioned.

wow dude you rrooock- awesome achievement- from 7 euros to 150- brilliant...i a, also good at numbers, but they usually end up being like this: from 150 to 7 really nice to see that someone is making the cash on the micro limits, good luck to your poker career
That´s pretty awsom, congrats! Have a Story pretty close. Got my Account at PKR, cashed $10 in an after just one Hand got $5 extra. Played way to agressive, so i went down to approx. $5. Got my skill back, went in mikro Tournaments and got my way to spend $5,50 into a Tournament. To make it short: From about 750 Players i got 5th, getting a nice $165! Ever with the thinking in my Head, that a "black Friday" could appear, i cashed out twice, but still having about $100 for play. Could be $80 more, but when it runs i sometimes think i can fly without Wings. Cashgame 0,5/1, $40 went down the drain within minutes. Still flying got back with another $40, but they went down with a sucked 2 pair at the River (Yes, PKR is rigged!!! ). So with this more Money my first Plane would be a Fingertip ahead. Need something so get to my Island i will buy from my winnings!
