LOL, I won my 1st hundred the first tournament I played. The problem was that it took about a decade after that to actually consistently make a profit.

I spent about $ 60 on deposits and won the first 100 dollars, then I found out that there are a lot of freerolls and started to play and slowly win

The first 15 dollars won on freerolls. Then I started to play 1.5$(6 max SnG) and won 100$ in couple days. After this, it took a week to lose everything.

Totally agree with you, my 100 was worth a lot more, I think the majority of 95 percent

So far, I haven't lost a single dollar of my money. This is thanks to my bank that does not allow gambling sites, however, I want to make a deposits in some poker rooms and currently looking for the right solution for deposit / withdrawal.

It took me a lot of time, but no investments.I was one of the lucky ones to turn a no deposit bonus to a cashout.As i remember i cashed out ~ $500.

I started off online in 2007. I deposited on FTP & pokerstars (not long after, probably another 20 poker sites). The first night I played I didn't know how to navigate the lobby & ended up registering for a $1 game (as it was just about to start). I didn't even know it was a tournament (was actually looking for a SnG on recommendation from a friend who'd been playing for ~6mos. already). I ended up cashing for $114, taking 2nd place in the very first game I played LOL ('The Ferguson' on Fulltilt)

Look, this is now a days you need to make a deposit if you want to win something. But i think 6-7 years ago everyone can earn 50$(or another value) just for starting your poker career. So it was really not so hard to take this 50$ free - win an extra 50, and make a cashout. So i think 100$ is not something impossible in that times.

I lost 0 before making 100. I started with freerolls and built up a small bankroll that way and then stepped into micro cash and mtt's.
