Might indulge in some online Holdem myself...

Hey dude, if you don't wanna lose big, don't buy in big! That's how I regulate my losses lol.

don't play for money, fool!!!
Keep practising until you are 1337, and then go and kick some ass when you play for "real money".

well i've done that. i play with friends and other people that like poker all the time...i mean seirously, like three nights a week easy hehe and i always finish in the money...

then friday i went up to our local casinos and i walked out of there with a ton of money....so that's what got me thinking that i was actually good enough. so i made some calls, found out where the game was at...and got stuck in da bum...that was about it hahaha...

I said the exact same thing...many a times...

Luckily I only play 2/4 or casual games with my friends, otherwise I would be poor in a hurry.

I have no luck when it comes to playing poker

Overall, I think I am still up at playing Holdem, but overall, I remember ever bad beat and rarely remember any of the good times.

Two things...

1. The house always wins (or if you're playing against other people, odds are you're gonna lose)

2. "The better the gambler, the worse the man." A quote from somewhere.

It's all fun and games until you lose your shirt.

My sister lost hundreds of dollars playing those stupid "nevada tickets" (those break open things).

A guy I work with lost $8 grand in one night.

If you have that kind of money to play with, why not go shopping?

I don't even know how to play poker. I'd rather throw my money out the window.

I've been playing hold'em online for just over a year now, read some guides, a couple of articles and been around the twoplustwo-forums. I also know a lot of people who play BIG (Fixed Limit) - one which is one of the best FL players on the Empire/PP-network, so I've gotten some pointers. All in all I'm up about $7000 (including rakeback).

Poker is fun and a nice way to earn some extra cash if you know what you're doing. I'm playing $2/4, $3/6 full FL at the moment, building a BR to go to $5/10 short. Most of my friends are way past me, playing $10/20 and $15/30, they usually average like +$1k a day, playing about 2-4 hours on 4 tables or more simultaneous. I envy them

Once you lose alot, you'll win it back eventually

not really...when you know what you're doing in poker, the odds are definitely in your favor.
