Message: [QUOTE="Poker Orifice, post: 6717259, member: 33113"] This is great advice for someone who has zero disposable income and is interested in playing 'pretend' poker on play chip tables. Whatever happened to people who play for leisure and entertainment? Why does a person always need to follow strict BRM. Honestly BRM is basically for professional players or for others who are hoping to never deposit again (but what about deposit bonuses?.. although they rarely exist these days). $700 is not a HUGE loss. $700 isn't even enough to go to the casino on a weekend to play the cheapest stakes they have there (people do this ALL the time). It cost $700 to stay in a hotel for a long weekend. Long weekend in Hotel vs. Playing online poker at home for ONE full month (if a person likes to play poker it sounds like they're getting a way better deal vs. just one weekend stay in a hotel). Go watch a UFC fight - $1,600 for one ticket (for a UFC Fight Night ticket in Vegas). Wow... OP could play 2 full months of poker for that!!! And maybe they win? And maybe they also learn how to improve upon their game. The majority of this forum is based on thinking of 'handouts'... 'freerolls'.. money gotten for next to nothing from others who are putting up the prizepools. Whatever happened to paying to play poker? If all players had the mentality of 'only play freerolls until.... ' 'just play play chips', there wouldn't be any poker sites. $700 twice in 2 months. It is normal for many to lose $700 in one hand. (I've lost 10x this much in one night). I lose $700 on a weekend playing micro/low stakes MTT's. It is normal. Watch any MTT regular (ones who are playing 40 to 60mtt's/day). It is normal to lose 40 buyins. Cash game, losing 5 to 10 buyins isn't terrible. Quitting after losing 5 buyins while playing good & under good circumstances is terrible (imo). Quitting after losing a few buyins while still enjoying yourself = terrible (imo) [/QUOTE]
