The two who tried so far (imRadu and PvTguillo, p.4) clearly missed the point.

Also, this post made me realize that I may be mis leading alot of my friends who talk to me on AIM about my poker winnings. When I show them a big hand or talk to them about a nice run... i pretty much am giving them only the good side of poker which definitely is misleading. I've had 12 friends total in the past 2 months that have started playing poker online after hearing about my winnings (most of them played poker with me in live games and at one point or another had tried online but then quit because they thought it was 'rigged'). Because of this i stopped talking about profit and nice hands altogether because I don't want to feel guilty about them losing money online. I damn sure couldnt make money when i first started playing and didnt even realize the type of strategy and thinking that goes on... but when I finally did it was more of "jesus christ i never knew it was this deep, no wonder i couldnt fucking win".

izenra , i promise you that anyone with a knack for the game and puts in over 100 hours a month can make money. 2. starting at low limits creates addicition. ..... .1/.2 tables make you think and strive to make money, and alot (NOT ALL) of players try and coin flip there way to the next level. All of you who are starting on low levels IMO are starting wrong, My poker bankroll managmant theory goes .... save alot of money in r/l before playing online, you can except to turn 50 into 500 a hundred percent of the time , you should start at any site with no less then 250-300 dollars but more preferably closer to a thousand. Micro limits teaches bad habits and for the most part can be considered real poker.

The smallest limit that is NL and played on a level where people want to win is 50dollar n/l tables
blinds .25/.50 ... because even thou it is a small amount of money it is a REAL amount of it.... for instance a .25 raise on a .1/.2 cent table will do what to someone who wants to "gamble" while a 11 dollar raise speaks to people .... that says 2 days of jack in the box
2 packs of smokes (roughly)
2 12packs of diet coke
and so on .. because on that level people are thinking "HEY THIS IS REAL MONEY! I CAN WIN 200 dollars in a multiway pot , OH SHIT..." while levels above it is units ... "the goal of the game to take induce everyone to give you all there chips ...... the strategy if figuring out how"

I say your friend it someone very smart actually
he deposited the exact amount that his luck variance got him to, and then lost it. He has just learned that he's not good enough to handle 400 dollars in poker ... which generally means he should freeroll his way up! ....
