Well ... Phil Icey also gave a very good advice to the newcomers poker layers : " if you can't take a $100 bill out from your wallet and burn it , you should never play poker " . Or sth like that . Nice quote . So if you are not ready to gamble , burn money at the fireplace , risk or lose a lot of money , you should never play poker .. Some new poker players think they will become millionaires in one week or one day ...

Great advice, thanks! Phil's quote is really thought-provoking – if you can’t burn money like it’s nothing, then you shouldn’t be playing. It’s an important reminder because many new players think they can become millionaires overnight, but understanding the risks is crucial. It’s always better to approach with a realistic mindset and avoid excessive risk-taking. Let’s keep in mind the long-term strategy and play responsibly!
