Literally the money in my wallet. While playing live I’ve never had a true bankroll. Life and responsibilities prevents this for me. Online I normally have a few hundred on there at any given time.

I started in a tournament for 100 and placed 3 or 4 that got me 900 back. I have never gone below that 900 since. Currently up over 20,000 in casual play. But I have never made the leap to higher stakes games until this year and then C- 19 hit, so waiting to resume once we have the all clear.

I started with freerolls, then I played micro-stakes and kept 40 in bankroll, but then I lost out of excitement, now I try to control myself

Previously, I spent an average of $ 20-30 a month. Now I no longer spend money on the game, on the contrary, I regularly increase my bankroll by playing in freerolls.

Whatever I accumulate through freerolls is my starting amount. After black friday I don't have any of my own money on any site.

Same. Currently, I only play freerolls and "play-chip" events. I might play for real money in the near future - but right now I am just learning the game and refining my skills :)

I started with few pennies. Then my bankroll increased and now I don't bet more than $ 10 a week. Otherwise it is possible to get out of control. This for me is a hobby and not a job.:cool::cool::cool:

Eith ten dollar I play at the first time, but I recomendded for people start with no money and play frerolls. If you are liking the game you put money, if not you dont put money and keep playing freerolls.

In total, I started with $ 20. I started playing poker about 3-4 years ago, and in all that time, I have spent no more than $ 100.

My first play was with some 40$ and I wasted em pretty quick. After some time, I gained experience and was much more cautious and played lower stakes. Now I play much better and am having larger bankroll.

When I started a long time ago I used to only play freerolls and never had to deposit. I stopped to play for a couple of years and when I came back the freerolls were not good as used to be so I set a deposit limit of $100 per month when it’s necessary.

I started on ACR with $0 and I've played like 50 freerolls tournaments to get up to the $30 I have now. Now with this $30 I'm playing a tiny bit of .01/.02 cash, and some 0.11 and 0.27 tourneys to balance out my still heavy volume freerolls. The biggest thing with building from 0 is patience, because sometimes you'll play a tournament for 3 hours only to win a dime.

I have never entered any money into ACR. i did put in $50 to pokerstars, unibet, and full tilt. got some back when poker went south. never putting money in again. the thrill is in playing not how much i'm playing for. So if its just free rolls so be it.
