lets see, I was over a friends and he was showing me how he played online play money poker. I was like thats pretty pointless, we should have a 40-50 dollar buy-in type thing sometime. We had one and I ended up winning. I took $25 from the winnings and funded my Online Poker BR on
PokerStars. I obviously lost it rather quickly lol. Since then I've gotten much better and recently turned a $25 deposit on PS into 890 and bought myself this laptop im typing you from.
I love it because its not gambling, the cream of the crop rise to the top in poker.
