Switching from B&M to the internet
I live about 45 minutes from Tunica. I've played cash games and tournaments for the last couple years. I consider myself an average player for the amount of time I've been playing.
I'm planning on playing on the internet. I havn't even signed up on a site yet. My initial thought is to play some .50/1 NLHE. I also like tourneys. I dislike the typical B&M weekly tourneys where the blinds change every 20 minutes. Are there some 20 - 50 dollar entry tourneys where the blinds change every 45 min - 1hr? Or even some 100 entry where they change every 1-2 hrs? Also is there any advice you could give someone going from B&M to the internet. Thanks |

Play two levels lower than you think you need to. For all you have heard about internet players, in general they are better than their live counterparts at the same level. Lori |

make sure you are a winning player in whatever level you are playing in. dont just go redepositing every time you drop your roll.

Re: Switching from B&M to the internet
1. Get a rakeback deal
2. Starting at .50/$1 is a good idea 3. You see twice as many hands online so playing in tournies where the blinds go up every 15-20 minutes isn't nearly as crazy as live. 4. Get Pokertracker and Playerview 5. Learn to multitable 4 tables 6. Bonus Whore 7. If you can't beat .50/$1, then you can't beat $5/$10 |

After every pot win online you must stand up and scream at the top of your lungs SHIP IT MOTHERF*CKER. They dont allow that usually in B&M so it's a must online.

Never, ever, never play without a bonus or a rakeback. That way if you are only a breakeven player you will still come out ahead and in the money. That's what is so great about online poker.
