I realize that it may by impossible for me to prove to you my earnings, since it is tip based and I could easily just fake/fudge the numbers. You just have to trust me. How much you think you can make MAXIMUM with $200 starting bankroll in 2 months. Over $2,000? Over $5,000? What do you think?

What site? How would we monitor this? If you lose the $200 are you aloud to reload? How often will you be playing? Am I aloud to play against you? How do I know you wouldn't bail out when you failed and not pay? I am interested.

Poker is very cruel kind of job. You can play absolutely right, but without the luck it is useless. Life example: KK pocket, KK2 - flop, all-in from villian, call of course. He opened AA. Guess turn and river cards :)
Yes there were A and A

After games like this I wonder should I continue play poker
