I could be more successfull if my hands wouldn't be so itchy :D
Whenever I earn something on freerolls, I lose most of it on cash games. Guess Im still not ready for them.

I consider myself to be a successful poker player. I have made enough playing to keep on playing without any new deposits. If I amortize my winnings over the 10 years I have been at Cardschat, it works out to be in the $2K per year range, which covers about what the games I play cost.

This is really not saying I am a profitable poker player. Arguments on either side of this issue might say yes I am, just because my winnings cover my costs. Or no I am not because it is not covering my life expenses. It does cover my hobby expenses tho.

Im still learning and improving but overall i would not say that im not a successful player. As with anything else in life if you stop learning and improving then you are no longer in it.

Personally I am a player with highs and lows, lower than high since I lost about 250 dollars in poker XD
But I hope to improve my game and become a good and winning player :)

I'm simply planning to not deposit ever in my life. I just started playing, and I'm learning a lot, but I refuse to deposit. If I'm not good enough to make some money from free bankrolls once in a while, I'm not good enough to be successful at higher stakes, so why bother depositing jsut to lose everything. I'll climb my way from nothing, and by the time I get some money, I'll be good enough to compete.

If I never achieve that, at least I won't have lost anything.
I think it's a great way to start your poker journey and generally a good mindset to have. You can definitely build your bankroll with freerolls. It will just take more time. When you do win some money then remember to always play within your bankroll, make a habit of being super disciplined with money. A lot of if not most poker players are big gamblers and 90% of them end up losing all their bankroll eventually.

Like to think so. Guess everyone has their own definition for success.

I do not know whether it's successful or not, but it's clear in the plus, and there are victories. Good, I think.

Not really. I'm winning when I play with friends but we don't play for that much. I don't go to casinos that often and at pokerstars I haven't cashed out yet.

I'd say by most standards, yes I am a successful player. However, I'll never be satisfied with my gameplay and I will always be looking to improve. One reason I like poker, is that you can never really master the game - there is always something else you can learn. In that regard, the game fits my personality perfectly.

Are you a successful player?

Yes I am. I make lots of money and help others to do the same by sports predictions. I provide them free NFL picks against the point spread. So of course I’m a successful player and helping other to win tournaments with my free sports handicapping picks. I have a great memorable sports year I am earning and helping others to make a lot of money. :cool:

This question is addressed to all players, be regular or not, many people being asked about their income during the day, or for a week, try to hide their earnings, I believe that this question has some basis when we look is not asking for how much has been able to win, but if they have been productive by putting in this point of view the number of games that we make during a day, or a week.
We may not have lost much, but I ask! What is the basis of playing for 7 days to get a profit that we see to be insignificant?
Our profits clearly have the balance of ups and downs, with good days, bad days and last what we call black days. This by the way is the day that I like other players would like to withdraw from our score, but we can not, something gets hammering in our head, we are happy to get something good, even if this something is the minimum, of course everyone who is Studying to win, have reached the desired place.
So, tell us how your day is today, and what your goal for this weekend will be, I'll be here cheering for all to be winners, including myself, good luck and good games.

Speaking of results, so far this week for me is black, but I recovery for sure!:):):)

not really. :) I've won a t-shirt and some freerolls; not great results so far for me. I hope for better results in the future.

good luck at tables!!!

Yes I am a successful player when I play calmly and patiently, when I'm not disturbed by some my mistake, or not a winning hand!!

Being profitable in poker is a very difficult way, we realize this when reading articles by professional players, but it is not impossible, we have to set our own goals, and every time they are surpassed, we should increase, online I am not doing very well, More in live poker I'm billing.
