I only invest the money I earn for free , because for me the ideal is to earn good money without spending anything , it also serves as a thermometer to assess my development in poker

I only invest in poker what is required for access to a poker site. I had a problem with gambling a number of years ago and refuse to do that again to my wife.



I too drug my spouse threw gambling, thankfully a new child broke me of my ways and I started putting her first before poker. Good job!

I only put money into a poker site to be able to withdraw my winnings. Also I put cash in to get perks like tournament bucks and etc.

I don't know if it's a lot or a little? But I have already invested more than $ 500, so I could not win anything, I lost everything. I realized that such investments are too early for my level of understanding of the game. I want to try to promote a bankroll from freerolls, is it real?:rolleyes:

Só jogo freerols e o que eu ganho consigo jogar alguns torneios pequenos, as vezes arrisco uns grandes mais preço tudo.
Lately I've been trying to set up a bank, let's see if I can.

Not a dime. I've built up a sizable bankroll many times through freerolls. I've then turned around and lost it every time. Each time I do I thank God that I don't put my hard earned money into it. Tilt comes too easy for me.

So far only $40(usd) made it last a long time by playing micros, and free rolls in between. Made a few final tables and cashed. First live cash tournament on Thursday hopefully that'll pay off in cash and knowledge lol.

Congratulations if you can still manage to pull it off without falling...

Not many can.

Surely the most important thing is time which is priceless. A few deposits of 50 euros but all sustainable from my salary

What I invest in poker is my time, my money and my patience. This helps me to play my games and it works well for me. Hopefully, the games are great to play and win.

I invest about 40+ hours per week and approximately 50-100 per day. With little to no results.

I rarely deposit money into my account. And if I do it is only 10 euros.
With good bankroll management you will get very far and it is not necessary to use your savings.

The only thing I invest is a lot of free time, but this pays off in fun and a little pocket money.

I did that a long time ago, investing some money, now what I get has been the product of many hours of work and thanks to cardschat, the day I invest my money again, in my case it will be to take it in a professional way

I have never invested anything in On-line Poker only Time, and now I am retired that is the one thing I have plenty of, Live games are a different story but to be totally honest, I didn't start playing Live until I was confident I could play and win occasionally.
My first ever season playing in a League I qualified for the Regional Final, and I have lost count of the Number of Season's I did the same, Qualifying every 3 months gave me access to play in Casino's for free and I have even made the National Finals.
Poker is a fun and enjoyable pastime I always enjoy, I also have played cash games in casinos and other Tournaments besides the League Tournaments. I don't think I am down since I have taken up the Game. and have had some good results in the past giving money to my Wife and taking a couple of Holidays Abroad, so I can say the game owes me nothing.
Playing for Fun is certainly the best way to play for me, as I don't expect too much from the game, I will never be rich from it, but I will never go broke playing it, The secret is playing within your means (Bankroll), playing sensibly, and just enjoy the game.

When the fun Stops, STOP!
