Thats just daft, the sites want you playing (rake is there income) if you lose all your money in 1 go the site does not benafit the player does, the secret is good play, you won 2k do that a few times you got a good balace to play with next win will be 10k then 100k etc, it cost you 15$ to win $2k do you not think that is a big win?? try that on the slots LOL

Lol, I've only seen my bankroll grow for the past few months... patience and discipline are the keys, and NEVER play hands where you know that the other guys has you unless you hit something (mostly straight/flush draw and he has obviously pair or double pair, even if you're hi stacked.) 9/10 times u're f*cked

Patience. That's about all there is to it. Of course you need skill but once you've played for a few years, things should be pretty automatic. You'll continue learning but online, you shouldn't need too much experience to win. Be patient and know when to steal pots. Learn when you're beat. If you think you're beat, you usually are since most people play a pretty predictable game online.
Oh, and don't bring your entire bankroll to a table. If you play smart with your money when choosing stakes, you'll win in the long run.

This is no secret but a common approach to cash game on low blind tables. Patients - aggr on the good hands. And most importantly... read the other players. If you are on a table where they all play tight-aggr. you can steal blinds and small pots and if you play at a loose -aggr. table you have to be very patient and then trap your opponents..... no secrets but hard to do..... is AQ a good hand????? enough to push all-in?....and what if the pot has already been re-raised...... a lot of questions to ask your self before acting....

It all depends upon the site, you will have to clear "X" amount of points b4 you can withdraw, any bonus amounts over the bonus can normally be taken out instantlly, normally you have to gamble the equivelent in rake, so if you get $25 you have to pay $25 worth of rake. the sites dont want to offer free money to countries that are not likley to make a deposit
