Twice? How did he get from $2000 back to $40 in between tries? Don't tell me he cashed out $1960 to leave himself with just $40, because that seems a bit silly...

Come on TP!

To understand a SWA, you have to think like a SWA.

What he means is, he took a $40 deposit, turned it into 2k, lost it all, and then did it again.

He won 2k twice!

I'm on the brink of turning $25 into $1000... but I won't be losing it anytime soon.

I've never invested a single cent into online poker and have turned it into 4K and counting.

I started at $100, and have gone to over 7K in 1.5 years, very nice investment considering I would be doing jack shit otherwise.

Oh, and look, Swa was here today. We have a sighting.

JD, I don't mean to call you out, but weren't you asking about deposit options the other day?

Default yup

He cashed out to have a baby, then only wanted to buy back for a little.. so he did that.. and now is on the verge of cashing out again and taking a break or buying back in for a few bucks, I dont know.. I can ask him the motivation of not keeping his money in a poker site.

Don't get me wrong... I'm all for people cashing out whenever they want/need to... I'm just surprised he would cash out $1960 in this case and leave himself with a lousy $40 to work with. Why not cash out $1800 (hardly different that $1960, relatively speaking (not even 9%)) and leave yourself with $200 (EXTREMELY different than $40, relatively speaking (500%)) to rebuild with? That's all I was wondering...

That's what I did (not the same numbers of course). Literally started out with nothing (freerolls at Bicycle Club site, won some change from that and a free Pokertropolis tourney entry) and somehow managed to go on a tear there to accumulate about $800 in a month. Of course it didn't last, but I did get a few free months without 'work' and some money out of it.

Default Day 4: Experiment

Well, day four was interesting. I have basically lost 4 of 5 hands with AA in the last two days. That has been fun. Tonight more of the same. 23 people left. I have 2700 in chips, with 300 blinds. I get AA. The guy before me goes all in. We are HEADS UP! SWEEEEET! He turns 77! YES! PAY-F-ING-DAY.. untill... the river.. when he hits his two outer. It was great. Really excited. No flush draw on the board. No possible straight. Then he rivers the 7. Well, that was it for me. I would have made the final table for sure. Not sure what place I would have finished in.
