Welcome, I really must get around to watching that

I haven't seen many poker movies, apart from the usual casino films.

Rounders is an awesome film, excellent performances from Damon, Norton and Malkovich (as usual).

after a quick game last night to teach a mate i'm looking to get some practice in before we play again, any suggestions of decent free play sites?

Grandad · 17-08-2009, 11:28

TBH you won't learn much on free play sites, you may even learn to play very badly

as it is for free and they can just reload then people do npt play in a "normal" manner

Poker stars have $0.25 tournaments and even this tiny amount makes folks play in a better manner

coolski, i shall take a looky at that then

been playing on the 2/4c tables to get a hang of things, dropped a bit, gained a bit, all in all i'm sitting about steady over the last few days.

had a look at the tourneys but don't understand the crazy naming so ran far far away :P

im presuming there's more detail in there i can't see, as all it shows is the name in the wee box and not the other information the headers say it should contain.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
