After transfer fees I started with $24.75 last month, and now I have $76.49
Still curious what the catch was to the $50 spinning card ACR bonus but I'll take it ha. Also should have a deposit match bonus coming my way in about a month. So made a couple bucks on my own, but it's mostly been bonus money helping me out.
Hopefully soon I can get some more freeroll money added on too.

And I mostly play the 0.01/0.02 cash games

Whatever I can get from freerolls is my bankroll. Usually I play Double Up And Triple Up SNGs

My bankroll is about 40.00 and if I play, I play micro games. At ACR they have .23 games which you can win tickets to get into higher limit games, which I use to enter them as well.

I have been trying a progressive bankroll. I started with 200 buy-ins for micro SNGs. If I win 4 buy-ins for next stakes level on a given day I can use 2 buy-ins. Any gains are reset at the end of the day. If I lose for the day at the lowest level, it carries to the next day and I have to keep grinding until I make up the losses and win an additional 4 buy-in at the next stakes.

It is getting kind of annoying. This might be too conservative an approach. I am at around 400 buy-ins for the lowest level. 80% of my gains are from freerolls though.

I started by putting in a $40 bankroll. Eventually I brought this up to just over $100 with mostly spin and gos until I promptly lost it! Lol. Mostly free rolls now until I build back up, but spin and gos suit my lifestyle right now. I don’t always have hours to donate to tournaments.

Built my bankroll to $30 from freerolls and currently continuing to play freerolls as well as $0.55 and $1.10 MTT. The freerolls give me a cushion to play above recommended bankroll to buy in ratio.

Best of luck to everyone regardless of bankroll and buy in level.

I have £18,000 split across three sites: pokerstars, Bet365 Poker and Grosvenor Poker.

I have about £12,000 in a bank account for live poker in the UK.

I play mostly 200NL cash but enjoy online and live tournament festivals too.
