Please if you're losing on money side post here!

[BlackLava]

Hi,

I want this thread to be the fair warning needed for all newbies and average players!
So please if you've lost cash on real money tables post here to explain that the free play is something totally different than real dollars, I know it's hard to admit it but you could be in top66 here and only lose on money side

All testimonials are welcome, it's a matter of wisdom!

Thanks a lot for your comments! Yes that's what crazy : Players are going high and then lose all on a few hands... How important is Bankroll management! don't want to spam my little tutorial about bankroll management but seems it's really what's needed

Well I lost a lot of money and deposited some more and lost the lot. I am considered a legend on this site by many but that didn't stop me losing. Be warned everyone you can lose a lot of money and quickly if you don't play your cards right. Take Lavas advice and make sure you only play a percentage of your bankroll so you don't go on full tilt. As from today I will do the same but for now I just need to stay off the money tables and get my head in order. To give you some idea of how much I lost it was over $1500

Ouch Baz, If I lost that much I would cry lol

Im trying to survive at the cash game but the players there are really good.

Thanks baz for pointing on that!
I know it costs to post such message and you're a great man just from that!

I hope it could clearly state that real money got nothing to do with fame and fun, the best poker player ever (IMHO) was losing money too : Stu Ungar himself, only three-time winner of the World Series of Poker Main Event tournament...
Take care a lot about what means real money play please!
