6 days after going bust played a free roll and came 2nd for £7.20, cant do much with £7.20 cos i dont have patience so played a sat for £3.60 which i won so gained entry into a £33.00 1k gtd event which i went onto win for £500, the very same night took a shot at the sky roller (rip) £110 - 5k gtd and i went onto win that for £1800, ive never looked back since!!!

not something id reccomend doing but someone up there liked me that day and it should have taught me a lesson about brm but it hasnt to be honest. i admire guys like garyqqq who can grind a bankroll up but its not something i could do, lifes to short.
$215 into $14k , but not really an out and out spin up I had no money on this site and specifically deposited it for this MTT. Other than that I have dep £50-£100 a fair amount of times and turned it into £1000+
Years ago I was off to Ibiza for a week. The week before I went I was off work and played poker every night live. I was down about 450, which was my holiday money. Stupidly I sat at a cash game the night before I went with pretty much my last £200.
First hand I got KK. 3bet pre and got 2 callers. K high flop all spades. Panicked and went all in. 2 callers, aargh. Both had flopped the flush. Board paired on river and I snap left the game. The only time I can ever remember banging a table and fist pumping'
Hit and run ftw! Didn't feel in the slightest bit guilty as the straightness of those self deal cash games at Gala at the time was questionable.

A spin down thread would be very interesting!
