Not sure if really counts as a streak but from the 4 April monthlies I've added over $700 to my warchest. Didn't have a good March so I guess a bit of my good karma's coming back to me |

You must work for the casino,have only played on two sites so far,but I rarely get more than three winning hands in a row,in fact I have never had more than that.Everytime I hit BJ the dealer gets it as well,seem to hit 12 alot,if the dealer has a ten showing I now always surrender,as if he has one ten you can bet he has another.I also double on eleven,seems to help.If I hit BJ as well as the dealer then I always take insurance as he will always have it.Hopefully as I continue down the path I to will have these tales to tell but not yet,I wish I really do.Still there will be no surrender. |

Oh i can relate. Im getting creamed at the crypto sites especially. Not including the bonuses I have lost $1000 just playing basic strategy and averaging $10 a bet. Its really getting ridiculous and you really have to wonder if it's really fair and random |

I've been doing this now since the end of December and mostly bet very conservatively and so far thats payoff well for me. Don't get me wrong I've had bad runs... I was over $500 in the hole for March and lost 6 of the last 8 deposit bonuses I've tried. The only things I've done this month have been the monthly reloads at 4 casinos and have been absurdly luckly. I just follow the basics and only do bonuses and play the odd tournament. I've had times when it feels like you just can't win, when you double on 11 against a 6, get 20 and dealer the hits 21 with 5 cards, more times then I care to remember, but then I've also had the times when accidentally doubled on 19, got 21 and the dealer has 20 I post here in the hope that our small community can appreciate each others success and commiserate our losses. The best of luck for everyone  |

Ahhh poker I recently turned $75 into over $1000 playing at Full Tilt for about 2 sessions of 2 hours on a Friday. Started at 1/2 tables then moved up to 2/4 when I had bankroll of over $500. Cards were not great but neither was the competition |

How do you like Full Tilt? I heard the competition there was tough. Buncha rock gardens. Sounds like you're finding some good action though.

My younger brother just started playing internet poker a couple days ago and he is fairly new to the game. He went to play a freeroll tourney at party poker and asked me to watch him play. But he asked me not to help cause he wanted to do it on his own. And oh boy let me tell you, this kid was on fire. He was going all in everytime with any pair and any two face cards and WINNING!! He was chasing draws all over the place and hitting em. There were at least seven times where he got all his chips in there with the worst of it and ended up catching his card on the turn or river. Not to mention he survived every coin toss situation he was put in. It was so fun!! He ended up placing 3rd out of 2000 players!! He ended up winning $5, but we drank $20 worth of beer. |

My best was slots where every game I played for a 2 hour period hit something. I did a slow climb until I hit on Harveys. 20.00 ended up at 600.00 after 4 hours total. I cashed out. That night netteller froze funds for USA and I havent seen a penny since. The Irony of being a winner. |
