I exhibited all these signs when I started online play!
I started back when there was only Paradise poker and the players were total rocks, except at .5/1 . I lost 6 bills the first day I played poker there, lost 1K my first week and about 3K in 3 months of idiotic play. Also I knew how to beat low limit games but I was insistent on playing games that were too tough for me at the time. It's possible that he can show mental maturity to control his urges to over play his roll. I just got lucky because the poker boom started and I found small start up sites where the action was softer at 1/2 to 3/6 and I could take those stakes seriously. Since then I have been about 30K in the black. Maybe if he was older I would say he could do what I did but if not it's not truly possible....... [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
