If you mean professionally in the sense that it's your only source of income and you make a decent living off of it, you probably are.

Ive played on Pacific Poker and PokerChamps. On Pacific, ive won 5 tourneys where it was 900 or more people (2 limit, 3 no limit) and maybe 6 more that were between 400-800 people. On PokerChamps, I have yet to win 1 even though ive placed between 2nd and 12th like 20-30 times. Ive probably played those places for about a year and a half now.

Seems like I'm the only one on Play4funpoker.com

Oh well, I like it there and it's free. Maybe when I get some real money I'll get a real money account somewheres else.

The sites I play on are Ultimate Bet, Party Poker, Poker Champs, Poker Stars and just recently Pacific Poker. I've recently turned the $10 they give you for signing up there into over $100, and (for the most part) it keeps going up.

As far as the comment about the loose play at Party goes, generally loose play is to be expected when playing play money, but nothing comes near what I saw at Party.

PP has a lot of new players who are just learning to play, so I assume that may have something to do with it. I've been playing on Full Tilt for the last day or so and I prefer it due to people not going all in/playing to the River on every hand.

I play on Stars and sometimes Full Tilt

It's easier to win on Tilt, IMO. But it's nicer looking at Stars, the program. Many more people at Stars too.

I play more home games, and I'm not gonna bother starting a real money account online. The best I finished in one of those free rolls was 2nd, and that's because I had to sit out so I could go to work.

Best I've finished in real life was 1st place in a 24 person tournament, cashing out with 60% of the pot, aka 144 dollars.

Most I've ever won in one tournament was 10,755 dollars. That was 11th place at a WPT championship at the Palms in Vegas. I was knocked out with pocket queens too, the guy had king jack and caught a king on the turn. Pissed me off.

[Lowerdeck]

Most I've ever won in a cash game was $35. Of course, with $5 buyins and rebuys allowed - this makes sense. I split the pot with some other kid.

I won the major tourney in my dorm last year. No entry fee, but I did get $25 to the mall. Like 25 people signed up for it.

[Guest Mr McFarlane]

So um Pepsi, When will you be single again for some Kou lovins? >_>

[existence02]

So Pepsi who wins you or Annie?

I used to play real money on PokerRoom all the time. I built my roll from $50 to $250 in just over a month playing 5+1 SnG's and rings. In the past few months though I've been playing in a lot of local tournies and home games. The most I've won in a live tourney is $150 for finishing third in a game with 100 people at a $10+5 buyin.

I'm definitaly up for a EWBWSOP as long as the buyin was under $10.

[R.W.]

Yeah, you could count me in for an EWBWSOP too. Would be ten times better than these damn freeroll tournaments where idiots go all in with a 2-5 offsuit first hand, then somehow manage to hit a Full House along the way.

I wish I knew how to play poker . All of you talking about it makes it sound so cool. Where can I learn to play?

Once finals are done its going to be a huge poker weekend around here. I cant wait for it. Last weekend I took 140. I found a new group of people to play with that arent very good, but its a better environment there (they have a real poker table etc).

Someone needs to set up the EWBSOP, it's going to be sweet.
