Somebody help me please?

I have deposited on FTP three times since starting to play poker online, in May 09, of amounts of $30, $30 and $40. Admittedly I have lost it all... damned cash games!! However, I have learnt a lot since starting out and I am slowly beginning to see results and address the balance.

However I have had 2x freeroll wins of $15, and (thanks to CC) a 5th place ITM finish of $24... added to this my $50 bonus from completing last years 'Take 2' promo. By my reckoning, a total of $104.

When I look at my profile on PTR it shows an overall loss of -$118(?). It seems that whilst PTR is logging my losses, it does not take into account my winnings from freerolls & bonuses. So where DO I stand?

Admittedly, when I started to play online, I was a little afraid that I would end up with spiralling debts, as you sometimes hear the stories of the guy that put up his house on a hand of poker etc., but I feel quite proud of the fact that I have managed to keep this under control. My addiction is with the game of poker... not in gambling.

I would like to think that I have broken even over the course of the last year, but PTR says otherwise. Am I just deluding myself or are there flaws in PTR's calculations?

I notice that freeroll winnings are not included on the OPR website either.

Someone please help!!! :confused:

-and they dont track 100% of hands so they may miss a few

Yeah they only track cash games, and they do calculate your rakeback just not on the chart.

sharkscope tracks some freeroll winnings, but not all.

PTR isn't 100% accurate either, it misses hands, etc..

your best bet is to track everything yourself.

this ....................^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I have a number of cash wins that were never recorded on OPR for MTT's. What really hurts is when they have recorded all/most of the entries when a player busts out before being ITM, then doesn't record a win which often covers the recorded loses for dozens or hundreds of MTT buy-ins.

Do your own tracking !!

Expecting a free site to do this for you goes back to G.I.G.O. ... Garbage In ... Garbage Out.
