My first deposit was just $20(a first deposit promotion by pokerstars) and I could reach almost $ 500 .Then,I withdrew almost all the money and starting playing freerolls to build up again my bankroll and I could do it.

[COLOR=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.87)]In my first deposit I was a good time positive, but thinking it was time to make a bigger box, I went to a higher value tournament and so my box fell fast and never recovered, now only play in good despite the bad phase.[/COLOR]​

My first deposits were the minimum 10$ on Stars , because I was losing one deposit after the other almost every day and I needed to reload , so it was better to control the money that I was spending .
Now I also make small deposits, or a lttle larger if there is a promotion bonus code , cause I follow strict BRM , except rarelly when I have serious tilt and I lose much/all ,which I pray never to happen again lol :)
But the important thing now for me is to learnr to play better (shove-fold strategy , see more hands , etc ) :)

I believe my first deposit was either $20 or $25. I cannot remember the site. I really enjoyed playing on the Merge Network: Carbon Poker, Poker Nordica, Player's Only. That was before their bad reputations. I'm pretty sure I ended up losing it quickly. I've made probably 5 deposits, throughout my life. I haven't cashed out since 2003 or 2004. I was too young to even play, but managed to get up to $250 on poker stars. That was a nice cashout for a young teenager. That was actually one of the first times I had played for money. I just needed to be staked.

The first Deposit was $ 40, and of course as a novice player who learns the basics of the game, everything was spent within a few days. The first time I withdrew a certain amount from the poker room only after a year and a half.

I do not have such a big salary, so if you are not lucky in the game more than $ 5 I can not afford.

That was many years ago and it,s hard to remeber, but looks like something like $100 was my 1st deposit. I was playing poker really bad in that times and for sure i lost this really fast and also a few deposits after that.

My first deposit was $25 on ACR. I didn't see any ROI on that because I was a very poor player, didn't use BR management, and it wasn't a large enough bankroll to play even the cheapest games available.

I have since seen moderate success with other slightly larger deposits.

$50. Ran it up to $600 in the following week only to lose it all after a late night at the bars. Whoops.
