Nice job! I'd be scared to play with that much money, lol. But great for you! Now buy us all Fabricio jerseys

Crack habits are bad. Seek counsel.
That's awesome! I'd definitely quit while I was ahead ... it only took once to figure out that beginner's luck fades pretty damn fast.
lol
yeah i followed the consensus and went to bed.
Thanks for the kind words!!!!!
Im gonna give it another shot here this afternoon see if I can add to the bank account some more
Oh sorry, I read the le and thought you needed me.

Ericb25 Ginnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
Shoogar, STFU
lol
Aight, I play there pretty much every night, mostly limit 2/4 - 3/6, but I'l keep an eye out.
My SN is kurt213
Kurt213, ill see ya there.
I played the 3/6 tables,
raising the hands up to 18 a shot is what made me my money
ok logging off now,
just won another 60 bucks lol.
WOW, nice job T-Park! You are quite brave for betting with that much money right away. Just make sure you gamble some more to meet your wagering requirement for your bonus, so they don't think you are trying to rip them off. Online casinos can be touchy about that sometimes, though 888.com is one of the best (I am assuming this is Pacific Poker?). The internet has some real idiots playing Poker, if you are smart (and a little lucky), you can make some money.
I do a lot of gambling writing for the internet, not much on Poker (though my assignment today has to do with WSOP 2006). Let me tell you, the sites I write for get e-mail all the time telling of how they won a huge amount, and then blew it all cus they got that flush of victory and let it spoil them. You definetely played smart by quitting while you were ahead. Good luck on the rest of your play!
Thanks for the kind words Melmart!!
Yeah, I was feeling sick to my stomach as I kept anteing (sp dont care) up, and when that final Spade came down, DAMN, what a FEELING of winnin a almost a 900 dollar pot!!!You are quite brave for betting with that much money right away
Yeah thats what my desktop Icon says.(I am assuming this is Pacific Poker?).
So far the people playing have been really cool with the Nice hands, where ya from, nice area and what not.
Im havin a blast.
Im trying to keep myself from playing more and getting addicted.
Don't I know it.The internet has some real idiots playing Poker
Im one of em.
one hand I won this morning in the 2 dollar min table, i got dealt on the downs, pair of 8s. I thought what the its only 2 min 4 max, give it a whirl.
Well I got the pot up to 80 bucks, and the dude playin me had like a 10 and a 3
the flop was 8 7 9, turn was like a jack, and the river was a 2.
I was like,
why would you keep bidding up?? ARe you trying to bluff someone on a computer? Thats original.
I bluffed myself another few bucks this morning though I must admit lol.
wagering requirement for my bonus???
My bonus was 100 bucks.
I don't understand, Ive played poker for a while, but I just got into playin with money on the internets thing.
poker is fun.
i hang out on bodog a lot, finally starting to see my luck turn from utter to something decent.
bluffing is part of the game, its a of a lot easier to bluff in online poker than in live poker. sometimes if you dont bluff you wont win and especially if you are in a tourney you will see your chip stack dwindling down to nothing if you never do anything based on the cards you get dealt. its part of the game.
i've never been to pacific, i might have to try that one out sometime.
When you get a free bonus from an online casino or Poker room, you agree to bet that $100 (or whatever the bonus is) a certain amount of times before cashing it out. In other words, you were able to withdraw your winnings because it was played with your own funds. However, if you had tried to withdraw everything, they would not have let you withdraw the $100 bonus because you have not played enough raked hands to meet the bonus requirements.
They do this to protect themselves. A good example would be River Belle casino. They offer you $25 of their own money to bet with, and you don't have to deposit a dime to get it. So a bonus hunter would sign up, get the $25 then try to withdraw it. If they allowed this, they would be basically giving away $25 to every idiot on the net who signed up. So they ask you to wager it 20x before withdrawing it.
$25 bonus x 20x wagering requirement= $500
So you have to place $500 worth of wagers before you can cash out that $25. But you can still withdraw anything over that $25 that you won (unless its a shady casino).
As long as you continue to play, even occasionally, you will be good. Just don't try to take blatant advantage of the bonuses, or they will catch you and blacklist you. It's amazing the technology they have to monitor stuff, even compulsive gamblers or underage players.

After playing poker with my younger cousin, I don't think I really want to play...he always won, whether it be a K/4/3/9/2/A or what not...always "I win", sorta like Big Daddy.
T Park, you are definitely most welcome next time I put together a game.
well I was gonna go, but you backed out.
Make something up for the middle near the end of April.
Thats when ill be available again.
End of March beginning of April, MAYBE.
when is this next game you speak of??
I had a good night too:

Oh and as for the bonuses poker rooms give you, some are able to be withdrawn right away. Others require you to play a certain amount of hands. However, if they let you withdraw it then take it right away. I've been doing a fair amount of "bonus whoring" lately where I just deposit money into a poker room to earn the bonus, then withdraw it and repeat at another site. Good way to make extra money while playing.
manuel es dios lmfao
