Hello everyone!
this is my first post on the 2+2 forums allthough ive been reading them for some time now.
i started playing poker about half a year ago because the sportsbetting site i use gave me 10$ free money and the opportunity to gain 100$ bonus if i played 1500 raked hands (no idea at that time what that meant).
i played for several weeks at the lowest tables and soon lost all my money, but the bonus made me buy in more and keep playing.
i soon switched to no limit because i thought i might do better there and started to read books in order to get better.
i read SSH, HFPA, TOP, PLNL and kept playing all the time moving up the limits.
3 months ago i started to keep track of my winnings and losses at the checkyourbets site because i decided to stay at the limit i was currently playing at (1-2$/2-4$).
since im a student the money i was wagering was very very much for me, but i was still winning.
i did have to rebuy some, but cashed out more.
the last 3 months i have made around 25$/hour according to checkyourbets. i played 80 in the worst and 110 hours this month (yes, i am a lazy student)
i played on two sites only but now i want to play somwhere else because all these posts about bonuses and rakebacks make me want to get a part of the cake too.
problem is that i have got no idea on where what and how to do it.
i have read the post about the bonuses and i have read several other posts.
i opened up a netteller account because this seems to be the best way to cash out.
is rakeback something that i could use?
does the pokerstats programm help me?
questions over questions.
i would be very thankful if someone who knows about these things would take me under his/her wings and help me out.
