Nope. If you're going to play you should do one of these. I'm already in the one that's accepting entrants in the lobby now and I'll probably buy into the next one too.

Go Sparky!

Just finished 4th in a 45-man for $28. I would have posted on here about it when I made the final table, but frankly I wasn't taking any chances after the last few days. :lol:

What on earth just happened? :lol:

Edit: Thanks for the rail, folks. It can't have been very exciting. I think I played 4 or 5 hands max at the final table.

Idiot donkey caller with 5 outs max in the deck FTL.

Out of interest were you really card dead on that table? I am a tight player but it seemed like you were being more than just tight.

Yeah I was really dead. Just waiting for good spots, really. I am pretty tight late in tournaments, though. I sometimes think people push too early. I have no idea how that guy can call a KQ4 flop with bottom pair, 6 kicker, though. Especially considering how tight I'd been. Oh, well. It was a good to go deep in the first tournament I've played in a while. Again, thanks a lot for the rail. Think I'm going to stick to MTTs. They're way more interesting imo.

A touch smaller than I have been playing! I wanted to hit that $50 mark.

Well played. Let's hope you can double that soon. After my initial $50 deposit I managed to double quickly playing $0.01/0.02 cash tables and $3 SnG games.

Played 2 $1 9-man SnGs and won them both so I'm back over $30 :D Got a bit lucky mid-way through when I needed to (I'll try and find the hands I mean) but I was really happy with my play 4-5 handed. I was really aggressive but not silly with it and went into both heads-ups with 10,000+ chips. It did help that a couple of them really let me bully them!

He was quite an erratic player so it was very hard to put him on a hand, we had lots of back-and-forth until I made a good call against him.

Where does everyone play Poker online?

Also, if I wanted to play for cash, is it possible to play for ridiculously small amounts? I don't have that much money in the bank but I find it's more fun when there's a little something at stake, I'm talking like, 50p or something. Is that possible?

The majority of us play on Pokerstars, I think the minimum deposit is $10. You can play in their lowest cash games for $1 which can't be far off the 50p mark you're looking for.
