Re: Times you felt slightly baller
Made 9-10k at 200nl about 3 years back. Took it all of the poker sides and quit cold turkey (consuming my life and all that).

Right now I'm broke and borrowing money, working to earn my way through college. Essentially I'm barely scraping by...So tired of this that I have decided to return to poker and win my way through college. To prepare I check out my paypall and neteller accounts to make sure passwords and stuff are in order.
Turns out I've got over 600$ left in my neteller account.
I feel slightly baller that I had so much money that I promptly forget about 600$, not so baller because I broke and in debt.

Going to use this to win me some sweet monies...

Re: Times you felt slightly baller
Piss poor student cleaning toilets and grinding $5 limit MTTs (with my Sklansky book) on party back in 07 (while everyone else was busy destroying NL Cash).

After my 3rd FT and 2nd outright win in 350+ player fields I'd turned my £20 deposit into over $650.

I withdrew $300 and went to the shops with a mate and bought a Wii (my GF wanted one more than anything else at the time).

I left it in the fridge and as she came into the house I shouted from upstairs: 'darlin get us a couple of beers'....

'Tsskk, ffs lazy a**hole....................................YAY!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!'

Re: Times you felt slightly baller
Some great stories itt this may not be baller enough for some.

About 2 months ago I completly cleaned out a 1/2 at my local b&m. It was like a table from heaven, 9 complete randoms (in a city of 80k, pretty rare) and Me. Ran really hot and busted everyone within 5ish hours and cashed out for like 3k. There was even a little rail starting to appear. It felt pretty balla.

I let my friend have my copy of L.A. Noire. He offered to buy it off of me but I refused to accept the money.

I was having a hangover in the bellagio vegas and watching collagefootball all day long, when a friend was playing with part of my money and came back with 1.6k for me. I felt slightly baller.
