Default Re: How much was your first deposit for?

I'm curious as to how the distribution of people who lost several deposits before figuring it out and those who didn't correlates to experience live and in home games.

When I started playing holdem, I knew inside and out that I had no real idea what I was doing in that specific game, though I had a lot of general gaming experience. I think that contributed quite a lot to my success.

I lost several deposits before I started winning. I knew absolutely nothing about poker when I started playing online. I would usually drop around $300, take a few months, read a couple web pages, and come back thinking I knew enough to beat the game. I knew I was making progress though as it was taking me longer and longer to to lose my deposits each time. Luckily I bought some books and found 2+2 and now I am here to stay.
