won 1st three games, second once and third twice... thats all my games I didn't bust at all. Over-all increase my chipstack quite a bit... I'm going to play Sundays from now on lots of fish and games were good. Wont ever sink any more money in but it was a good day for poker
All I have to play for in backgammon is a site ranking, but it's a fun way to have a 10min break. My partner was complaining about my luck in real life, so we started keeping stats on dice rolls - no evidence of my luck yet, but we've established that the dice we use are biased.
I play poker occasionally with a group from work. Zero stakes but we keep statistics and have the odd tournament day. I would not trust any online site with more than spare change.

I only play with a 25 buck card, I don't even use real credit cards. They're getting much worse. When I was younger I played 20-30 dollar 9 handed games and won enough to consider it full time work... I never did obviously but I took a hiatus for about 4 years and now I find that it's almost impossible to win consistently. One day I win every game, the next it's upset after upset and there's no way the math adds up after a while for either

yea I play online mostly... I used to play with the blackberry crew from RIM IRL and man did those guys have money to lose lol. They had a professional dealer and games were every friday night. The odds were a LOT more realistic, not many crazy bad beats like I see in the online stuff. I do think the companies have a lot to gain by making people periodically lose everything. Backgammon online sounds awesome but again I don't think online stuff can be trusted... I'm hoping to find a group around here to play with once a week... online is BS but I do like playing that's why I'm in this mess lol
