raverbabe Posted August 22, 2016 Posted August 22, 2016 I don't see a screenshot thread for those of us who play poker yet so I figured I would get the ball rolling. I decided to play in Betfred's freerolls tonight, sadly I crashed out of the £100 Guaranteed VIP and the 1000 VIP Points, but I managed to take down the 500 in style .. shame it's not really worth anything but hey, when your running this good it still feels great!

I am a long time poker player and was permanently on Pokerstars and 888Poker. When i discovered online casino, i left poker immediately. I can win so much with casino in so little time, having to sit 4 hours at least in a sunday million or any micro million tournament to win some cash, which is very time consuming. However their hyper turbo tournaments are always there as well, but low prize pools and since less players play , you tend to buy-in very high for $5000 prize pool. Given that i have kids and married, 4 hour is a lot of time, and cash tables aint really my thing, because it take time to build a bank roll and you need to have patience. The only time you win a quick buck , is when players are pissed off and perform those angry raise all the time when they lost a good hand against you. Also this damn thing of everyone going all in whenever they have Ace in their hands, does not help either. So i stick to online Casinos now(Cause i can set auto play) while spending time with family, even my son play some Energoonz for me or he would ask me if he can play the game of the Lady with the Fishes ( Koi Princess) or the game where the "Uncle catch the coins" (Gonzo's Quest) and i do let him play for real money but with low bets. He once made a a decent Win in energoonz and i rewarded him with a racing car lol. I haven't play poker in a while and do not think ill go back anytime soon. Quote
raverbabe Posted August 23, 2016 Author Posted August 23, 2016 I agree that playing on-line poker can be a very time consuming process, I only have a permanent bankroll on Stars at the moment, I log on most days and fire up a screenful of tables, mostly Sit N Go's but a couple of Spin N Go's and maybe one or two MTT's at the weekend but as you say those can take many hours and I just don't have the time or concentration to play for that long every day. In general(on a winning day) I will make around $20-$50 from my hour or twos play then just come back the next day and do the same again, and if I am up by over $100 at the weekend I'll make a withdrawal. I just feel as if the odds are more in my favour compared to playing casino games and it's often my poker profits I will use to deposit at casinos so the two go hand in hand for me. I like to play the freerolls (like in the screenshot above) when I'm playing less seriously and maybe just want to have one or two tables open whilst I'm doing something else. It's typical that it was a points game and not a cash one that I thrashed so decisively last night though! Quote

Marcos Posted December 25, 2019 Posted December 25, 2019 No doubt in online gambling poker is in the highest pick and so as in soccer betting, soccer betting tipsters are high in demand. Quote
