Right now I am doing 2 jobs and do not have enough time to play money games the way I did a month ago, so I sorta keep in touch and practice with free rolls.

If I played more I would have my confidence up. Practice (playing) makes perfection. Right now I have not seen the needed share of crds to keep my play sharp as it should be.

But using them to build a bankroll is hard since of the donk calls and hits on those calls. Just hope work slows down. I want more poker time.

I played nothing but freerolls for a long time and made enough to start putting down real money. I still play them, but prefer the private ones because the numbers aren't so overwhelming. It's exciting to me to make money for just an investment of my time.

Default I play online to learn the game

Hi everyone; We all have experienced bad beats and great suck outs. I have to remember that poker is a game and I am not always on the winning side, but with some practice and some luck, I may have good long runs. I did play in a "hubble" game and I did end up qualifying for the money satellite by getting a few good hands when they counted and I also got beat a few times. I did manage my bets based on my circumstances at the time. I think that helps me get further and further into the tourney. I did cash out that next weekend on Saturday morning eastern time. First tourney 12k participants, second tourney over 5k. Not bad for someone that is still learning.

Question: Can one play on this site or is this mainly a postings site?
