hey all I'm pretty new to the site and thought i would share a few stories of my great to very fast sad online stories realy fast..lol
I started playing on full tilt about 3 years ago..put on 50 bucks and thougth i would give it a whirl. I went to atlantic city 2 days before this for my 21st birthday and won 1500 bucks on 1/2 dollar nl tables in just 2 days and was feeling real good about my play.
Well after just a few weeks online I took that 50 bucks and turned it into 8000 dollars in 28 days. Played a bunch of heads up and won my first four 500 dollar heads ups that i played and was pretty much having unstoppable nights. It was a great feeling...well...for a short time.
I must admit that i was playing out of my bankroll the entire time, thats how i got 50 bucks up to 8000 so fast...but hey..it was working!...until i ran into a guy online that changed everything for me......
I played this one guy in a 500 dollar heads up and i had AA vs his AK..we are all in preflop..and BAM..he rivers the straight for the victory..thats when it all started..and i then lost 5 straight 500 dollar heads up to him.what made it worse is that about 75 percent of the time i was all in with the best of it on the flop but shit happens. I had my first negative nigth and sadly it was about 3000 bucks worth. I had a few bad runs and before i knew it i was playing 5 dollar heads up with the last of my money. Granted, I cashed 2k out and paid some bills but it suuuuuuure did suck losing all that. Ever since that time i have had some real good nights on stars..and reeeeal bad nights..but im stuck now just scrambling a few bucks together to deposit 10 bucks or so online to play with.
I have had a couple great nights...made .80 cents into 500 bucks once...won a 70 fpp table..cashed in the ticket for 10 bucks..and made that into 1000. But nothing was like that run 3 years ago when I put that first 50 online and in a short 28 days turned it into 8000k....
Let that be a lesson to everyone to play good bankroll structure...cause I can only amagine what I could do right now if I had that kind of roll online.....
Feel free to sharkscope me..im xx frankie on fulltilt and pokerstars
drop me a line if ya want..gl to all on the tables!

hes talking about you meeting neilly lol
he turned like 100 bucks in 10k in one day and lost it all playing nl5000 heads up on the same day |

Browsing through your hand histories makes me wonder that you might not be aware these games are possibly play money. Have you ever tried to cash out? - Kapol | |

dude i never said i thought it was easy...i have played 1000's of heads ups online..and have put in 10 hour sessions many times..i knew i was in for some hardships...what im saying is.....3 years ago EVERYONE was thinking they were the best in poker and could make it..for me to of turned 21...make 1500 my first time in atlantic city..then 8000k in 28 days online..was kinda like living the beginning of a poker dream..thats all...i know there are 100000 different aspects to the game and stuff |

oh ok. from what i understood is that you actually played very little and made alot of money. misunderstanding.
As long as you stick to some sort of BR rules from now on you should be fine |
