Definitely increased my bankroll during quarantine. Especially during march and first half of april when lockdown was most serious in my country. I played much more poker than normal. Even now i still play more than normally.

I must say if we are speaking real, is on the same level as before...not good.
Since I play very low numbers of tourneys during this crisis, it would be good if slowly but steady we are getting on the next level.

Decreasing so far.. but as Im learning, i only play freerolls and micro buy-ins.. so I guess it's part of the journey to became a better player.
I decided that I'm not gonna put my money to play poker for now, so I'll try to build my bankroll only for freerolls (I earned 0,60 so far) and then started playing $0,02and $0,10 buy-in max

Quarantine - I started playing in online rooms and began to invite my friends here =D I hope that the statistics will be positive at the end of the quarantine. It is extremely pleasant that can play several games at the same time and not be bored if you miss participation in one of the games. Those who have more free time have more chances to study and win well, I believe in it! We have now big data about all tournaments and live poker games, we have many YouTube videos... it's make all processes simple and fast.

I'm up 40 pounds after getting to the final level of the grand tour from a dollar buy-in
Did have 62 but I took 40 off and played with the rest which I then lost with qq
with a qkk board turn 2 and river a and of course he had aces ..

Well ... doing numbers ... I think I have increased my bankroll in this period ... and analyzing the details ... I think it is because what time do I play more hours at poker ...!

During that time in the quarantine, you increased or decreased your Bankroll? =) i'm increased


In that quarantine I made the most money / time in poker, as I had more time to play more consistent tournaments and study a little more about the game, related to poker was excellent for me.

In this quarantine I have lost some money, but well at least I had fun, and what I lost is not a large amount, so it is not so bad.

My bankroll has gone up, thanks to playing with my buddies in a pokerstars 'Home Game'. We normally play one day a week at someone's house.
With the lockdown, we set up an online game, and I continued to take their money, slowly, methodically.
I seldom played online, but now I play up to three times a week.

This is great! I hope games continue to grow online.

It increased a lot, practically from 0 dollars to $ 170 :D something that had never happened before, hopefully towards 2 dollars in freerolls a month, and now in a month I made more than $ 100 I think that wanting to stay in the tournament to not be doing anything it helped me to have more patience to play better lol

I have no changes, there is a tournament schedule, how many tournaments I played before, and I still play now.
This is more likely to depend on the PokerStars management than on a virus with a quarantine.

My bankroll always the same because whenever I make a profit, I withdraw it to make a real investment to get a real income.
