I have been playing poker a long time, but only recently started to make money. My poker rating on the official poker rankings is now 92%, and i hit the money 19% of the time. I am sure that will get better. If you understand the basics of poker, but think winning poker is out of your reach, think again.

There are two psychological barriers, number 1 is thinking you can win, and suspect its all a scam, Number two i will reveal if someone asks. I put fifty quid on last summer and it went up and down like a yo yo. Now i make money most nights. i play. It went down to 55 dollars now im well into three figures playing £ 1-50 in a 45 field on pokerstars.

Apart from the money, poker is fascinating. Last night i had two pair on the flop and my opponent as i learnt had nothing but a pair of diamonds and a diamond on the flop, he bet and drew two diamonds on the turn and river, poker insanity, and knocked me out. There is no coping with dolts.
