Message: [QUOTE="Pokerpoet2, post: 6737891, member: 430261"] Any practice is always good practice, whether it is for Real money or Fun money, the only difference is you tend to come up against more All-in idiots in fun money games, but once you can avoid these players and concentrate on how you want to play, it is always better than not playing at all. Freerolls have a similar aspect, because at the end of it, you are not losing anything if you go out in them, but they are a first step towards winning real money without it costing you any cash, I remember my Father teaching me how to swim, He said "the only way to learn is to go and do it" as he threw me into the Canal, Poker is the same the only way to learn is to play, but there is no harm in playing for Fun money. You will always get the odd player who has no regard for the money they stake to play a game, after all a $10 buy-in to some players is peanuts and they can afford to throw money like that away, but to others it could be a weeks wage to them, depending on where they live in the World. I saw Bill Perkins (a multi millionaire) playing at The Lodge and he Shoved all-in on a bluff and said to the owner Look after my money for me, I have a flight to catch, and he walked out of the Casino to catch his flight. His opponent folded the best hand, and everyone fell about laughing when they turned Bill's hand over, a pure bluff and the pot was getting close to a Quarter of a Million Dollars, but he didn't give a damn about the money and left it at the Casino for his next visit.
