Poker as a Second Income Winnings

As promised, here is my example of what can be done playing online poker as a second income. My results are not fantastic and I am not an outstanding player by any means. This is just an honest representation of what can be done with some hard work and dedication to playing the game.

Just for a bit of background on my graphs. This is almost entirely from play at PokerStars, although there is a bit from several other sites, including Full Tilt Poker, Absolute Poker and Carbon Poker. During this time I became a Supernova at PokerStars, which definitely helped increase my winnings. As you can see, I earned a little over $10,500 simply by playing poker. Where the real value comes, however, is from my rakeback.

Although on PokerStars there is not actually any rakeback, the VIP Program serves very much the same purpose. You can see some big jumps in my rakeback line. These were VIP bonuses that I purchased from the PokerStars VIP Store with my points. My rakeback, or bonuses, added nearly $8,000 to my bottom line! That's obviously huge. This is the reason that it is so important to choose a good rakeback program or VIP program.

I highly recommend PokerStars and their VIP program. It basically serves as PokerStars Rakeback.

PokerStars has even made changes recently that add even more value to your bankroll.
