Message: [QUOTE="Pokerpoet2, post: 6755337, member: 430261"] I have cashed in a few Bankrolls over the Years on several site's mainly because they change something or other that I am not pleased with, one site stopped offering the free point games, where you won points in a freeroll and you could convert them to money by either exchanging them, or use them to buy-in to cash games. The buy-ins were usually 200 to 500 points depending on prize money on offer, or you could exchange them but the exchange rate was something like 1,000 points to £1.00 So I used my points to buy-in and the prize money was a lot more than a single pound. When they stopped I had over £150.00 in my Bankroll all won through freerolls and then using points to buy-into cash games. Another Bankroll I built was over £200 when I cashed it in, again due to the fact they stopped offering as many freerolls, and so far my biggest is with PokerStars where I have over $600.00 to play with. I don't play that much on line as I prefer Live games in Pubs and Casino's and have won a lot more than that in live games, but I do not keep records of wins or losses, I prefer to put my Winnings in a safe and only use it for buy-ins or a Vacation now and again when I want a break, and it has paid for a few. Poker is a hobby for me especially when it comes to On-line Poker, I do not buy in for huge amounts because I do not trust the Internet connection and the hardware I use if I buy in for $5.00 it is not a lot to worry about if I lose connection or the power goes out. Poker has to be fun! and I don't care if I win or lose as long as I can say I enjoyed playing the game and I played my best, the money is just immaterial to me, I get a buzz just from playing and making the Money no matter how much it is.
