Posted by Patspoel010: I think i go and play on the NL 0,50/1 tables. Try to make as much as i can in a short period.
And lose it all in a short period too I got 39 euro (50$) for Titan poker and now have 69 euro playing .01/.02 and .02/.04 HU cashgames, .05/.10 6max NLHE and some 2.20$ sit 'n Gos (2-3 days, I can smell the big downswing coming ! )
I try not to play too high cash games cause the higher you go the bigger the swings and chance of going broke is. I also think that playing big tournaments is the worst way to build your bankroll in the beginning.

Disaster ! lost all within hours. looks like its a american PKR? not many players on at my time, only 2 tables 0,3/0,6 full and 1 table 0,10/0,25. well at the lower limit table i warmed up and won alot hands, but the big pots i lost like 70% of the time now it comes...."never try to win your money back"....i did it cos i felt good - but its the last time i did that. so i joined the 0,10/0,25NL table. played only strong cards or SB/BB. all was fine i even won some money untill this hand: a guy in middle pos raises a bit, 1 or 2 guys call including me with Q9 suited. Flop: Q 9 4...i was like "nice, all mine lol". he bet i call. turn: Q 9 4 2 same procedure, he raise i call others fold. river: Q 9 4 2 8 or something...raise reraise all in! i thought hes got AA KK but wrong thnking, he shows QQ .......bad luck ? well thats what i thought anyways and i immediatly rebuyd chips. next hand: AA for me, and a guy with KQ keep callin my "potraises" (cards where like 2 A 9 4 7) untill hes got his flush with his KhQh....on flop was only 1 heart ! unbelievable oh...yea we were all in again since i potraised all the time. and my last 3 bucks i spend on a Kanasta player who calls my ace with 5 and 3. all folded to me (SB). so i raise a bit with my A9, he as BB calls with 5 3. flop: A 5 J turn: A 5 J 10 river: A 5 J 10 ........3
i hope BRM doesnt ban me for being poor loser
action poker looks good anyways, just not that much action yet

(168 $) . beaten by full anyway i learn something with that 200. play nice, think hard and take ur time. most hands are not good enough even if u think they are

I played on NL50 and NL 100. Points came very fast. The only problem is that my money has gone halfway. Now I'm trying to reload my account with freerolls. Ehehe...

I played NL.05/.10 and NL.10/.25 in the beggining and from 40$ came to 150$. Than lost few "strong" hands, pissed off and play Casino, roullette... hit 0 few times in moments of desperation and came to 280. So when i finished 2 x 50$ from BRM bonus (earned 1400 POP), I had 370$. I needed 16 days and many many hours playing to clean that bonus. Then deposited 10$ with moneybookers, and cashed out 350$. They send me money within 24h hours to my MB account. I was very suprised how quick they send me money.
So my experience with Action poker is great, i found little luck there which I didnt have in some other sites. I will continue to play in AP for sure.
