    Default Read and Post PLEASE:)Betsafe Poker

    I started with betsafe poker about 3 days ago.
    i only put a small deposit of $50. to test the system.
    1st with all the money they make why do they charge for withdrawls and i think deposits because they took £26.05 from my account.
    2nd There account screen is very confusing. Actually there whole accounts section is confusing. William Hill is 500 times better.
    3rd There bonus are only for high limit players.No way i can get all bonus.
    Anyway i played the 0.15/0.30 tables got my stack up to $89.
    Now epic loves this site.
    Then the next day im getting the super donks. ive posted sum of my hands
    lik my AA vs 44 - spilit pot j high straight
    kk vs 96 offsuit he hits 2 pair. He went all in pre flop with 9high hit the 6 on the river.
    This session was the worst ever. And i lost everything.
    Im not a bad player at all.
    So can someone give me some tips on beating these fools.
    And do i need to get poker office or tracker because im takin my poker serious from this minute.

    Try not playing at a $30 table after a deposit of just $50. You should be playing $2 buy-ins with that BR

    This is no offense 2 you, your not good but your taking the right step 2 getting better by asking questions. You dont need PT you play super small stakes and prolly wont understand it at this point.

    If you're serious, definitely get PO or PT (PO can be got for free so that might work best for you). The information you get on your play is absolutely invaluable. Also get yourself a rakeback deal, it's surprising how much it adds up to.

    You have to learn to manage your bankroll though but it's good that you are asking for help at the right time and not after losing thousands. You need at least 20 buy-ins if you're playing cash games, a small bankroll just won't be able to cope with the swings you will encounter. Obviously getting your money in with aces and kings in the situations you mention is profitable but if your BR can't handle the beats (the aces one especially you will lose 1 in 6 or something) you will go broke, no matter how good you think you are.

    I say deposit whatever you are comfortable with into a site that gives you rakeback and a decent bonus, I dunno maybe UB or something (I like it there). Play with at least 20 buy-ins (preferably 30) and keep a track of how you do and post some hands.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    A full buy in at most tables is 100 big blinds, so $30 in a $0.15/$0.30; making 30 buy ins at this level $900.

    I personally feel comfortable with only 20 buy ins ($600 at that level), but it never hurts to be overrolled.

    If you go to the poker office website they have instructions on how to get a free licence. You'll have to play x amount of hands at specific sites (the Party one cleared in like an hour at NL25) but it's worth it.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I want both so i can see which 1 is better for myself. I have also heard about poker edge. Cant you just buy them without signing up for sites. Cant someone who owns it just send me a copy.
    Or is that not allowed?

    Are you seriously asking if piracy "is not allowed"? Well, ya, companies kinda frown upon it. Cuts into the old profit margin.

    You can buy them directly from their respective sites (www.pokeroffice.com or www.pokertracker.com).

    It's worth the money, and these are small time programs with only a few people's blood sweat and tears. We aren't talking Microsoft here.

    Shell out the money or buy it through their affiliate links. Give it up to the guys who worked on these very well done programs.
