The Girl Who Will Turn 1,000 Play Money into 1,000,000 Play Money into $1,000

OP congrats on your desire to learn an amazing game. Sounds like you have the basics down etc. I think the point everybody wants to make to you is your time invested in play money really isn't going to benefit you at all once you understand the absolute basics of the game, which you already do. See you will spend a lot of time learning how to play against total retards and once you think you have that mastered you'll think "well I have a million play moniez now I'll grind the real money." you'll make your deposit and think hey I have 20bi's for 10nl so what the hell. You most likely think "shouldn't be long at all before I build my roll up for 25nl then 50nl so like a month or two.You'll be amazed when you suddenly find yourself in a totally different game.Nothing at all appears familiar. These people are totally different. What the hell I thought I had this figured out. Hopefully you'll not get depressed and give up on the game. Or you could do as suggested and play maybe a couple more days of play money until you've read EVERY PIECE OF THIS http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerfo...re-123008.html also you'll do this http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerfo...854.html. Then deposit $50 and start playing 2nl one table at a time. You'll post hands in the forum and get great feed back. You'll get involved in lots of great conversatoin in IRC. Within a day or two you'll notice "Hmm this isn't to bad." Your roll will slowly build as will your confidence. You'll start playing a few tables at a time. Boom you'll suddenly be rolled for 5nl and shortly after 10nl. Then you'll find yourself saying "Damn I'm sure glad I didn't waist all that time F&^%#$* around with play money!

No matter what you do enjoy the game and take advantage of all the resources here at FTR.

I am also amazed you've not gotten the "Show us your tits or gtfo yet!

Thank you for this!! Much appreciated. I was already getting that idea from everyone else's comments, but you spelled it out oh-so-clearly and now it's very obvious to me why play money should be a short lived venture and then I need to start penny games.
