hi bulastika!
another filipino poker player here. not really into video poker, whether with live dealers or video dealers, the idea is just too shady for me. i'd rather play in the numerous poker clubs around the metro. normal table buy-in usually starts at Php500 so your $30 will be quite a big bankroll. i think money management is the key here. been looking to join some of the local poker tourneys but haven't really seen a tourney that i like. most of the players are big spenders and high-rollers.
glad to know about the freeroll at pokerstar. i'll check it out and see if it suits me.
good luck on your game!
cheers!!!

those are bad beats!!!
pure and simple. with an AA and a KK, man you're sure to win with cards like that. just another reason why i don't bet online, too shady for me. it is convenient indeed but if a live dealer can manipulate the cards being dealt, i'm sure a video dealer can do so with relative ease.
anyway, been shopping around looking for a poker site that suits me. also looking at some rake backs and some program that will keep track of my hands and wins/losses. once i get all those three worked out, i'll try video poker for sure.
cheers!!!

have you ever tried playing in any of the poker rooms that popped up like mushrooms in the country?
table buy-in is at the minimum of Php500 and if you go at non-peak times, a seat is always available.
you might want to try that out.

I only play in Facebook. There you can play poker with others, all around the world, in real time. It is free mind you. But you can win or lose chips like in a regular game. I think you can sell your chips, though it is illegal in Facebook.

I also play poker in facebook..but it no fan..because they don't value their chips..actually the chips has no value.. they play reckless..Until if your playing a money game or even a freeroll that has money price Even you have TT u still afraid to go all in..In facebook even you have 22 u still go all in and hopes for luck..
That's the attitude of players in each site..
facebook 80% luck and 20% skills
NPP 60%luck and 40% skills
Pokerstar 40%luck and 60%skills

Sorry I stop playing poker in facebook...Because of low skills vs luck strategy..
What I meant is that a lots of facebook players don't value their chips..Even with low hands they go all in and live it all to luck..problem with this strategy is that it won't work in real money game..
because in real money game a lots of players their play tight..(because they are afraid to loss) and they only go all in if they have a nuts card..or if they feel that their opponent is just bluffing..

ME! i play poker on party poker and it is such a better interface that full tilt. i love the party poker system... however i just cant find a poker site that awards its players real money for playing with play money,do you get what i am saying? Do you know of a site that rewards its players with real cash just for playing with play chips?

Poker is an international game..
And if you playing online you have international opponent..

Hello Kabayan!
I've been playing online for months now, I started at Zynga - the one in Facebook (LOL), brought my game to the (real) tables, then started playing in PokerStars, PartyPoker and Full Tilt.
During my first time to play at stars I asked my friend to wire me $42 but all that went to waste since I wasn't aware that online and real game play were different. Anyway, I stopped playing online and played live tournaments instead. After a few months I'm back to online again. LOL.
I didn't wire any money anymore, but instead got my bankroll from winning various freerolls. That was crazy! It took so much time but from that 1 dollar winning I got for landing 15th out of 10,000 players it became bigger and reached $20. Not much if you think about it but it was really difficult to increase my bank roll!
You've posted this discussion 4 months ago, may I ask how your bankroll in Stars is? What do you usually play? SitNGoes, Ring Games or Tournaments?

I loss about 500 dollars total.
Five years ago I play and loss to a poker site that I can't even remember what kind of site it is. But I loss about 250 dollars.
Then I stopped.
A year ago I started again.
I played in pokerstar 100 dollars and loss.
Its crazy loss really. AA, KK losing to trio 3.
Its really almost impossible.
Then I tried tilt and party poker. Same result.
..
Right now I stop.
I have no work for two years and I'm low with money.
Yeah its hard to win online.
I never tried real tournaments.
I have no friends who is interested in poker.
It seems for them it a waste of time.
..
I played sitngo, tournaments, etc.I play different kind of poker.
Just for fun and experience and all losing money.
..
I'm not really lucky in poker.

Just want to remind you that its against TOS to just pm me for a site. Its against TOS to look for referral etc. Is it really effective?
As long its free its okay with me.
But its nicer if you just post it here.
So that everybody can learn or join.
Right?

I play poker online but only freerolls, i dont have the balls to play real money...lol I play at NPP, its free! no creditcards, no deposits...ive already earned 60 dollars in total without spending a single penny cause its freeroll. All i need to do is register for free in their daily tournaments and if i get lucky to reach the final table...instant money! They also have sit n gos and leagues but i seldom play there, i dont wanna risk the money i earned. Free tournaments is every 30 mins so no problem in loosing i can get it back by registering again...but i have to reach 30 dollars before i can withdraw my money unlike in other sites where you can withdraw right away, but its alright i can wait and i have nothing to loose anyways. They pay through paypal or moneybookers, minimum of 30 dollars. Youll be surprise to reach the 30$ fast depending on how well you play, They have daily tournaments, weekly tournaments, monthly tournaments(1st place can win over 30 dollars...instant payout), sponsor tournaments, etc. aside from the leagues and sit n gos. I have the banner link on my profile, you can check that out. I also play in pinnacle sports, but only earn 3 euros..lol!
Yah maybe one day i will try pokerstars.com, as long as there no deposits needed. Is that the one they shown on TV, where you can have the chance to play real poker in Metro Club (Pasig)?
