for 500 hands: 62% winners 38% losers for 250 hands: 56% 44% better players play more because they win and that's about all this says ;p you see it all the time bad player sucks out and runs with the money so he can lose it later | ||

Imo about 90% of the players lose. Mostly due to rake. Without it, perhaps 40%. I am with nazgul on this one. There are a certain 10% who know how to play and the rest just luck out on eachother Exactly, thats why as soon as I even heard mention of rakeback programs I dropped my party poker account in a heart beat, based on poker tracker I lose about $1000 to rake every 2-3 days. | ||

My friends gave me $200 for my 18th bithday into online poker, cos we had played like 3 times in the previous month. Anyway , first hand ever online I end up going all-in with AA and get A on the river and win $700, then my Dad walked in while I was still twitching with happiness and banned me from playing poker online for real money. I didn't care AT ALL that I was banned cos I realised that i could've so easily lost the $200 and the fact that I risked it meant that I wasnt cut out for real poker. Anyway this guy I know at school hears about this cos I bragged like a mofo, and he tells his friend and they "see how easy it is to win buttloads of money with online poker" cos they had like 30k at playmoney, they lost a combined $850 in 4 days and it fucked them up so bad, one of their parents kicked him out for like 2 weeks cos he was also doing bad at school and the money he lost was birthday money meant for schoolies the other kid sold his tv and ps2 to put the money back in his back account so his parents wouldnt find out how much he lost (cos they check it to make sure he isn't wasting too much on food etc) I cringe whenever i think of me winning the $800 cos it oculd've so easily gone wrong, I ONLY play playmoney now and I play that like 1 hour every two days or soemthing. So for all you guys who want some stories about poker fucking people up this is one. Don't play money poker unless you are prepared to cut your losses and quit while your ahead UNLESS you're good. and if you think you're good think again cos it's 99% chance that you're not (I KNOW I'm not good at all). | ||
