mafibulates: Hello everybody!

I'm glad to have found this forum, I used to be a member of 2 + 2 a few years back but it seems to me that it's gone a bit downhill since.

I've played amateurish (probably being very very generous here) for years and I'd like to take a good go at poker, to build up a bankroll so I can withdraw some extra £££ for beers/treats/holidays etc.

I have watched a few of this sites videos on youtube and I've now subscribed to see them as they are uploaded.and I must say they have been very educational and beneficial to me.

Anyways, that's me.

Good luck at the tables everybody!


Well it is great to have you here buddy and glad you are enjoying the videos! What games do you play? Winning money to spend on beer is pretty damn smart!

Getinbad: Hi I'm Getinbad
I'm 33 years old, I enjoy playing double or nothings on ipoker but I also enjoy cash but need to spend more time on it.
I have always played the micros. The reason I'm here as I'm sure all of us are is to beat these games I play and move up. I have been playing for 7 to 8 years, and live in Peterborough UK.


Welcome! Cool to see someone from the UK in da house! I am from Hull!

Hows the year going?

Hi, all, what an incredible poker resource this place is. I actually discovered PokerVIP by accident!

I'm a 44 year old UK-born Aussie, just getting back into poker again. I had to quit poker because of back problems in my late 30's but now that I'm at peak fitness again sitting down for an hour or two is no problem.

Looking at the wonderful videos here I understand there's quite a lot of work ahead to re-organise my nitty c.2010 game into a solid modern player. Time to study!

Hi all,

I just want to earn a lot of money, huge I mean, like to gain without pain because I enjoyed everyday my procrastination !

So, if I ever have 20 $, I am more than pleased that you are going to guide me to multiply it like exponential rate with no effort for me,
or at least with minimum effort.

Good luck to me !

HI All

My name is Andy and have just started to learn Poker...never played before.

Currently on 888 at the micros ..... learning and studying - basing my starting strat on Blackrain79's crushing micros.

Making loads of mistakes and trying to get a grip on putting opponents on a range of hands ... but getting there.

Happy for any advice on building my skills ... have a goal to get to $1/$2 within 12 months if possible.

Cheers

Andy

Hi Andy

Solid goal there and it is 100% possible.

One thing I would say is to get off 888Poker asap and try somewhere else. Where are you located?

CAAAAAAAAAAAASTLEFORD CAAAAAAAAAASTLEFORD!

Decent start this season mate!

I quite like the Tigers, we used to be very similar in terms of performance, stadium, crowd etc and always get a good game and I do love going to the Jungle, good atmosphere and decent fans.

We are doing a Leeds this season.... started off ok tonight but just, I don't know what is up with us this year, nothing going our way and everything just going wrong! No prizes if you guess where I'm from Laugh

Have a look around Google.

They do not like players withdrawing, very little money actually ever comes out of 888 once they have got their hands on it.

Anyway, if you do play there, I sincerely hope everything goes okay for you and you don';t become a victim of their funny business.

Hi @castigers222 , welcome to the forum!

I echo Jon, lets get you off 888 as soon as possible! There are so many better options with much better rewards for players!

It's great that you are in the UK as we have so many more options than lots of other countries so we really can get you a top deal.

I won't take over this thread with deals so I'll send you a private message with more information.

If anyone else wants info on deals you can private message me or @CrazyKeri , use the Live Chat feature in the bottom right >>> or feel free to add me on Skype: ash.180vita
