I'm complaining that poker is a waste of time, the only skill it gives you is playing poker, witch outside of poker is useless, and is used for Money laundering.

Its fishes like u that we winning players make money from so please stay

Strange, I wanted to write how fishy and dumb the op was but then realized that there are days when I feel the same

Advice to OP if you will ever play poker again: NEVER NEVER NEVER play just to clear the bonus, you are very likely to lose :) It happened to me many times, it is best to not let the bonus influence your decisions to play or not to play :)

My best month ever was when FT was running their "take 2" in April.
I played each day only until I had achieved enough FT pts to qualify for that day.
I played "ABC" poker, avoiding tight spots and being extremely careful about position, odds etc. Just paying close attention to what I was doing resulted in a successful run -- when all I wanted to do was achieve the volume w/o losing too badly.

Since then I set myself a session points goal, and play to that goal. At the moment that points goal is enough to clear 1/2 of a bonus portion.

The OP makes one dubious statement IMO:
"I'm complaining that poker is a waste of time, the only skill it gives you is playing poker, witch outside of poker is useless, and is used for Money laundering."

There are several skills that one takes away from poker, prime among them is the ability to analyse and evaluate situations quickly. Ability to focus, ability to interpret results and so many more.

Poker is enjoyable. So are movies, but you get no skillz at all from movies.


But how much did you donked above Ev?


If u wanna be serious about poker then it is not there to give u skills, u get the skills first and then use them to make money by playing poker. If u dont want to learn those necessary skills then it is like any other game just something to entertain u and u should never complain about losing. The fact is it is super hard to win even at small stakes if u dont spend the time learning and people like the creator of this thread think it should be easy and every time they lose with AA to KK they think the world is conspiring against them. Trust me sir, learn to play poker and you will win and it will feel good and the more u play and learn the better it will feel and more u will win. But if u dont feel like learning to play then maybe quitting is the best choice for u since u r bound to lose.


awww,c'mon man i don't wanna be a "f moron"... :(

can i be like a "x moron"?

it sounds cooler... :]

it does,shut up


OP here.

Sorry if the original post offended anybody, but there are days when playing poker seems a waste.

30 $ isnt a lot of money, but when you loose every flip and your top pairs get broken on the river all the time finishing 4th, I think its only human to get pissed off.

Sorry again.

Sounds like you were playing on Partypoker, only they have such awful rakes. Never play on partypoker if you're going to play SNG under $10. You get raped by rake, :(
