Well my check cleared yesterday. Yay!
I had gone busto after leaving very little on the site and hadn't made any deposits waiting to see what was going to happen with the first cashout. I decided to put fifty back on and take a week off of work just to play poker.
The goal was 8 hours play and a hundred bucks profit a day for the next four days. $2 max buy in for tourneys 10c/25c max stakes for cash games. Take my time, play tighter, and try to keep pots smaller until I have the hand locked. (of course for the last part I still play poker, ...but in general) The Idea being make a worthwhile amount of money while playing smarter and lowering my variance. Now 50 is a small bankroll for this but I knew I had another $100 behind if I needed it. (The other $100 being the rest of the check without going into my checking or savings)
I really hate my job. And I have decided If I can make at least three hundred (without just having a lucky week, and I'll know if that is the case.) I'm going to quit and start playing poker professionally. Now, I'm not trying to get rich. I'm trying to pull $1,500 to $2000 a month online. I do plan to play live as well. Some of you may know that I used to play live professionally but had some vices. And that I have some trips planned to start doing that again.
So I started today, played well, and without any real heavy luck (or bad luck), made my goal plus some in about two and a half hours. Then something lucky happened. I decided to stop and enjoy the rest of my day. I took $7.32 (the cash over $180 in my account) and brought it to the casino. I had no intention of leaving the casino with any cash so I used a "bonus" to double it to $14. The idea being able to play a little longer and since I had no intention of seeing my seven bucks again the 40x rollover didn't matter. But then, my 14 turned into 50. And my 50 into 115. So with only a little more that $200 in rollover left I decided to play Jacks or Better because I knew I would end up with a withdrawable amount. And then I hit a Royal!
Now with $1,153. and some change in my account I have a great bankroll and regardless of all of this I'll be sending myself at least $500 on the 1st. (You're allowed one free cashout per calendar month and I've already used mine. And I don't want to pay $50 when I can just wait a week.)
Now the jury is still out on quitting my job. The lucky casino trip has nothing to do with me being able to continually profit to the point where quitting is feasible. But day one was good. I'm going to drink and celebrate. If I play anymore tonight it will be PO freerolls or micro stakes for fun!Last edited by FrankWhite; 02-25-2014 at 06:39 PM.

I have cashed on Bovada over the last 6 years, and it has always been no hassle and quick. If anything it is quicker now than in the Bodog days.

I cannot log into this site. It's been about a week now. I hit the sign-in button, and the lobby greys out as if it's going to log-in and the sign-in button just looks shiny. Anyone have this happen?
