It depends!
do you take sport seriously?
in the long run, those who dedicate themselves are usually profitable.

Each player has his own line of losing money. In venturesome gamblers probably don’t have any money loss border. You need to approach poker wisely. I always choose a place for the game so that I have a minimum of losses and in case of winning a good prize. That is, I choose tournaments with a small entrance but with a large number of players. I don’t go to cash tables, because there I lose my money more often than I win.

But why do you have to lose money to realize that the game of poker is not for you? Play free games, see what it's about, if you are attracted to this game and then you know what to do.

Money is not a measurer, only in your head conducting a competent analysis of your games can you understand that you need to abandon the game, or you need to work out your mistakes and strengthen

The question is quite complex. Some players don't know exactly how much money they lost.
A man lost $110.000 in online poker and committed suicide in india.

More than you can afford to lose. Any money deposited should be instantly seen as lost, if you're then redepositing and trying to chase the loses then its time to give it up..


I disagree with that mindset. You are putting your mind in a losers mentality. Don't consider deposited money as lost money. It is merely your stake. And if you can look at it and ignore the dollar sign and just consider it how you buy into a tourney, that is the first major step in becoming a true pro player.

i have lost 100 but i hope to back all of them as soon as possible !


100 it´s nothing, you want to learn poker it will cost you just the same that a carrer in a good private College.. if you concern about 100, you are seen poker like an arcade game..

"Poker is not for you" sounds weird to me. Why should poker (or other activities for that matter) be for some people and not for others ? As long as you have a brain, you can use it to learn and improve yourself. If you are thinking of poker as a hobby, then it's a different situation. But serious players, and there are so many of them, always work hard at it and follow the evolution of poker, studying and practicing. You'll never hear any of them say : "Maybe this is not for me"...

Hi

At the beginning there will surely be losses, so you have to start with free tournaments and improve in the game. I just lost but I'm not discouraged I'm still on the path to learning

It doesn't matter how much you can lose. You can lose a lot and still keep playing. Some day you will get lucky.

Oh boy! If you can afford to lose that kind of money, then that's cool. I am not such a gambler. Or maybe just greedy)))
Good luck in the game!

Hi. Thanks for the comment. If we consider expenditures as investments, then they really become not so sad.

Friend Ludyiko,
I think it's not how much you lose, but how you lose. And if your mode is Cash, you can lose a thousand dollars in 5 minutes.
The important thing is to stop, open your hands and analyze with good software where you're going wrong, study more like great mentors who post tips on YouTube (right here we have the course available and free, thanks Cardschat) and don't get discouraged.
After doing these tasks, go back to playing and you will see that your results are sure to be better.
I'm Brazilian, my English is not so good, but as in poker, just study and practice and we'll get there.

GL !!


Thanks, Glaucopone.
Your English is undoubtedly better than mine;)
Good luck at the table

My advice, try a different Poker room. I suspect you are on PokerStars. They don't have great freerolls, besides the Cardschat ones of course, but even then the CC regulars are pretty good players and it isn't easy to get in the money. I find I am more often unlucky on Pokerstars.

I have been playing at 888 lately, and with a 10$ deposit you get a lot of perks and freerolls that are not hard to get in the money. They aren't the greatest site, customer service wise, but you can't have everything. The bonuses only work if you lose, kind of like insurance, so maybe that is another incentive.

Cheers and good luck



Thanks for the advice.
Yes, now at pokerstars.
I study, I think, I still will not master two playgrounds.
If I disappoint, I will move on to another.
Good luck with the game!

The question is quite complex. Some players don't know exactly how much money they lost.
A man lost $110.000 in online poker and committed suicide in India.



In the case of a man from India, this is already a disease.
Hould not stoop to such a thing.
In my life I also met a man who lost an apartment.

I disagree with that mindset. You are putting your mind in a losers mentality. Don't consider deposited money as lost money. It is merely your stake. And if you can look at it and ignore the dollar sign and just consider it how you buy into a tourney, that is the first major step in becoming a true pro player.

Wow! You are clearly an optimist. Thank you for this approach. I think you are an unrealistically positive person!)
Good luck!

I am not sure how to answer this question. I know I have the skill to beat the softest games, but I also know I am a fish in harder games.

So if I don't move up, I should be able to stay on the plus side, but the second I get greedy I will lose my bankroll.

Depends how much you are willing to lose for it even winning players will go on really bad downswings but that’s what they know they signed up for playing poker

If you’ve won in the past over a large sample a 20-30 buyin downswing is likely to happen at some point if you haven’t won in the past it’s a lot harder to know if this playing bad

You need a good attitude towards studying and a lot of grit and determination to be able to get better not just starting off but always if you haven’t got that then it’s probably not for you

Such players are unlikely to count their past losses. They see their only goal as winning, and they will not stop.

I look at the losses I take in poker as tuition towards being a better player. The important part is to grow and learn from the mistakes you've made.

I would recommend dropping down in buy ins to a level you can afford to play for a long time without worrying about money as you learn the game. It takes a lot of time to get to the point where you can win money playing this difficult game, but once you get there it's incredibly rewarding and fun!!

Don't play for the money, play for the game

I happily don't need to lose anything in poker because I do believe that poker is for me. But as for losing we all lose and win. Some more others less.

I have been playing online poker for a very long time and once even I lost my first car to poker, then for a long time I was in shock and did not want to play poker anymore, I was in a terrible state. But years later, I return to poker again and again, because this is the most interesting game for me. I haven’t lost large sums for all 10 years that I have been playing poker, that case was a good lesson for me. I can advise all lovers and beginners - play on bankroll management and stop playing when you're out of luck! Wait a couple of days, then everything will change!
