Default Can I still play 25nl?

bet365poker has a $50 first deposit bonus that I cleared without too much problem at .50/1.00 limit.

Their withdrawals are a little complicated.

edit: There's a small $25 sportingbetusa/paradise bonus that I cleared at 25NL recently. I don't know if it's still available.

You can try the three boss sites and play alot smaller
than $25. Break even there and you have 300 more. Then check
out bet365.

Do a search on this forum and you'll find alot of posts
about these sites.

also, the X-skins (Empire, Eurobet, Intertops, and Multipoker) have access to beginners tables. You can play $5NL or .15/.30limit against other beginners and get raked hand credit. At 5X or 7X, these are worthwile.

Im not a beginner, I've successfully played over 60k hands of full ring and 5k or so sngs, but I am only able to deposit this measly 200, so Im unsure as to where to start.

Im gonna start at paradise.

Whoa....I didn't mean to imply that you were a beginner. My grammar suck. The point I was trying to make is that you can get a big reward and build your roll to something nice witout risking much at those tables. It's an easy way to build a small roll.

$200 at $25NL is 8 buyins. its depends on your risk attitude. check bonuswhores.com for the best bang for your buck at initial deposit bonuses.

an experienced player should be drooling to be able sit at beginners tables. an experienced player should have more than a $200 BR. this suggests poor BR management or a finicail hardship has occured. if the latter, the BR still should not be raped. its like a mom/pop grocier store selling their refrigeraters/freezers. shooting oneself in the foot.

no, I didnt take offense to his post, I was just clarifying that Im not a beginner because I wanted to know if that effected his advice.

My problem with BW is that they suggest the british sites that have bonuses not able to be cleared below 1/2. Cant do that.

what I think I'll end up doing is getting in my $50 bonus at paradise, clear it today, cash out tomorrow, and monday reload in the 25%.

Then, and finally then, can I move up limits and play at levels Im used to.

thank you for the advice, and sorry if I came off as elitist, I was not intending to.

I think he'll be okay...

$200 really isn't a big deal. You can build that up in no time. I would suggest (if you're interested in it) whoring some of the main casino bonuses to give your BR a quick boost.

The point of his suggesting the beginner tables at the ex-Party skins is that they have lower buy-ins/blinds. You do not have to be a "beginner" to play at these tables - you just have to be in your first 45 days playing at the poker room. After that time, you are ineligible to play at those tables.
