That is a tough break...I did almost the same thing on fulltilt before they kicked US players...I didnt lose my money though...I started with zero and made about 17k in two years...One thing I did notice though while playing on fulltilt...I am a very profitable player when it comes to poker, but I had numerous times throughout my building process where I would sit and play 5-10 or 10-20 blinds cash tables...I lost a thousand dollars numerous different times to runners. Always way ahead with my money in the pot. But once you sit to play cash you can lose your whole bankroll in one hand....That is why there is a structure depending on your bankroll. Also playing for an amount of cash that can make you quit poker is most peoples problem...You tried to move up a little to fast is all....I have decent stats at fulltilt under davey25 or ddavey25 dont remember which was FT or PS. I wish you luck and hope you kick some ass today....yodaofpoker
