Ok here is where the REAL challenge kicks in

[suzanne]

Since my first major win I decided to take stock and find out where I am poker wise.

I have always been a poker for pleasure player and set my self a limit of how much I would donk out each week within my budget and NEVER went over it.

Im one of those sad people that keep all my bank statements and in this case im glad i did.

I started off playing on VC god knows when but I remember the announcement that the number of player had hit 2000, christ that seems soooooooooo long ago.

I played play money for a long time and met a bloke on there who is a very good player live but didnt trust internet poker...he was my first teacher.

So he weaned me into playing for cash...played at $1 stt for such a long time and he taught me soooooo much so if you ever see easyian in the lobby then please say HI coz hes a bloody nice bloke.

Anyway I counted up my losses and to be honest im quite surprised....I honestly thought over the 2+ years that I have played cash I would be waaaaaaaaaay down.

I have MOSTLY played VC and Blue Square and the combined deposits are £1030

Ive played other sites but im not counting them.

I joined Blonde when I was turning the corner and Im not sure of the exact amount but I know im in credit.

Tonight I made my first withdrawel...I had  $1300 and I took out £500 so now im on $300...the last week has been sooooooooo bad and i think im starting to tilt

No I dont think...I know I am

anyone want to give me a good slap?

The challenge is...can I survive on $300 and beat the cashout curse. ...time will tel x

Always remember the difference between a good and break-even player is to be found not when they are both running well, but when they are both running badly.

When the cards arn't coming, keep your arse against the wall.

I steal from other writers a lot, change a couple of words, pass it off as my own.

I salso eal from other writers, and change a couple of words, pass it off as my work, but add a few spellling mistakes to make it less obvious.
