I used to play all the time when i was in high school and became very good at it. I actually won a $250k Guaranteed at poker stars before they got shutdown. I started playing free-rolls on some merge network websites now since they allow Americans. Where are you from and what websites do you play at?
Wow, that's an amazing win!! I've played poker online here and there for fun, but have never played that seriously.
I knew a kid in college who made around $4500 a month just from online poker. I never could get good enough using just my free credits to actually throw any money at it lol.
Yeah, it is a lot of fun but you are right it's very hard to get good at it. Takes a lot of time and I put so many hours into studying the game. I started strategically winning over a long period of time. I am playing on the merge network now since full tilt and poker stars is unavailable for usa. P.S if anyone wants to learn how to grind mtt's (multi table tournaments) let me know, its a small investment to win huge amounts. I learned a few ways to make it to final table once every 1-5 tournaments. I am available to coach anyone who wants to give it a try.
Yeah, i played on facebook for the fun of it, plus I had lots of friends play as well. But once i got older and smarter i started playing for money
