I remember turning PokerStars play money into real money (around $9, I think it was) and then building that pot up to over $500. I was pretty proud of that and even cashed out some money and gave $50 to a friend so he could play on the "real money" tables with me. I really enjoyed it, but ended up spending too much time on it and watching my stash eventually dwindle down. I think I pulled out like $250 or $300 though. I have a regular monthly in person game I can play in, but I've just been too busy with my business and other things. Sometimes it can be a bit frustrating when you "do everything right" and still don't get the outcomes you want. Seems like a huge time investment with little enjoyment return anymore... but I do enjoy hanging out with my friends. The social part of it is always fun.
