Before the Lock-downs started, last year I played very little on-line Poker, as I got my Poker fix every week at my Local Pub in a league game, I ran the League and had to update the score's every week and post the table on Facebook so the regulars had the results every week.
After I finished any work I had to do, I would play for fun on Facebook and play other games like
blackjack, or Cribbage or anything that took my fancy, but the Lock-downs finished the Pub games and I was left with the fun games on Facebook, until one day I thought "Why am I wasting time playing for points when I still had an account on
pokerstars".
So deciding that to play for
real money was more exciting I started playing again on Pokerstars and I had over $200 in my account when I started and set myself a challenge, to double my account before Christmas.
This meant playing everyday and with the help of the Cardschat freeroll's, I smashed my target, and now have over $550 in my account, So this year I have slowed down and only play occasionally to keep my Pokerstars Chest points Active.
I still play many of the freeroll's and have won one or two, but the need to prove anything to myself is gone, so unless I suddenly decide to try and make the $1,000 mark I might give it a try next year, Who knows?
When the fun Stops, STOP!
