Getting Started |
|
|
|
Fortunately, today it's
pretty easy to get
started in online poker.
Years ago, you had to
find some cash on your
own and risk much to
make progress. Some used
to play as many
freerolls as possible
just to collect some
cash and to raise the
winnings. |
|
|
|
Today, there are plenty
of great offers for
beginners. Poker Sites
offers $25 dollars for
starting to play and
entirely free articles
to learn the secrets of
successful poker. Even
those who never played a
single hand have the
opportunity to become a
decent intermediate in a
very short time. Some
have great success with
discipline and hard work
on their game. |
|
|
|
But there are some
things to consider: |
|
|
|
Be prepared to play
online! Online poker is
a real dream: Anytime,
you'll find thousands of
players. Most of them
play very badly. You can
reveal those bad
players, also called
„fishes “any time. With
some discipline and
work, it's not a big
effort to get some
additional income.
|
|
|
|
In order to learn the
techniques of the game
you should at the
beginning play with play
money. Just to gain some
experience. Once you
understood the
techniques, you should
quit because playing
with play money has
almost nothing to do
with real poker. |
|
|
|
Keep on working on your
game, read the necessary
articles and maybe buy
some books. Afterwards,
you're ready to play for
real money. With 25
euros in cash, you can
only play at the lowest
limits. We recommend
depositing a small
amount on your own, for
instance 25 euros. If
you make this deposit,
you'll receive a $200 bonus and you can
play with $50
instead of only 25! This
is a big difference and
once you start clearing
the bonus, your bankroll
grows and grows. |
|
|
|
Listen to the bankroll
management! If you have
$25 or $50 on the
bank, you can only play
NL 10, which is
0,05/0,1. Once you have
more than 100 euros on
your account, you can
jump up to 0,1/0,2,
which is NL 20. You need
at least 500 big blinds
to play at this limit.
Otherwise the likelihood
of going broke is very
high and you might end
up loosing all your
money. |
|
|
|
Keep on working on your
game! Read books and
articles, discuss with
other players about
possible leaks and
mistakes and think about
every decision you make.
|
|
|
|
Don't expect too much!
You can't start with the
attitude to learn a
little, play a little
and win BIG. If you
think you could, stop
here and look for
another opportunity.
Everybody who earns
plenty of money with
poker worked hard on his
game and it took several
months to show decent
winnings. Start small,
make one step after
another and once you
made enough of those
steps, you'll succeed. |
