Now this isn't my normal play but this is my brother how should I proceed he really enjoys poker, and he's not a dumb kid he's just not patient and the money to him isn't a big deal since it's not his money, I'm only telling u all this because I just wanted to share this and see what you all thought of this situation

ty all for listening

What I'd do:

1) Change my password.
2) Make sure my password isn't saved when I log in.

Let him create an account of his own. And since he's won money, I'd have no qualms about transferring some $$$ to his account... providing that he hasn't cost you $ in the past.

uh definitely yell at him. he sucks

[x] Yell at him for being such an idiot.
[x] Buy him a poker book and show him why going all-in on a pair of 5's is very, very bad.
[x] Change your password and don't click auto-login.
[x] Open an account for him and transfer a couple of bucks with the stipulation that you get 40% of all his winnings.

Or - are you just using your little brother as an excuse to post a really bad play on your part?

I'd show your brother some backroom Vegas justice. That'll teach him.

There's a scene in "Syriana" wher George Clooney gets his fingernails pulled off with a pair of pliers.
Just a thought.

after u've done the fingernail thing.. there's a scene in Reservoir Dogs where Madsen cuts off an ear. Just a thought

Not a good idea if they are both to be on the same IP address. They could be construed as multiple accounts. If that happens, all your duckets will be gone until you get it straightened out. Assuming you can.

I have 4 accounts at the same sites as my wife from the same ip address(2 pcs), just email them beforehand, tell them you'd like to set up an account for your brother/friend/wife etc and its not a problem, long as they know.
My accounts are at ps, ft, abs and vcpoker, all big sites, never had issues with any of them, some even let us play sngs together, no colluding, obviously!

if a pro had made that move we'd be saying 'wow, what a bluff bet, and it worked!'

Maybe the brother sensed weakness in the opponent with their min-raise?

I assume this is stars?
[x]-let him keep playing
[x]-tell me time he plays
[x]-my BR could use a boost

Seriously though, he will bust your BR within a week by playing like that.
Take the advice of others and have him create an account of his own.

First off, i would never thank him. Or else you are going to give him this false sense that he is a great poker player. You need to tell him that you don't want him playing on your account then explain why. Tell him that your way has been winning for you and show him how you play and try to teach him as much as possible. Then transfer 20 bucks to an account for him and tell him that if he can make that money to a thousand bucks the way that he has been playing that you will match the grand, but if he loses it all that he has to give you 50 bucks cash in hand. Any person who thinks they are a great player will take that offer in a heartbeat. and when he loses it and has to pay up then he will have reality jump up and punch him in the nose, and then comes the fun part. He will begin to learn the true fundamentals of the game and become a good player because obviously he has the aggression part down, and it will all be thanks to you. so when he wins that first bracelet he can give you a shout out and buy you a new ferrari. Thats my advice anyway. But if you don't like to gamble then don't even take it. Gl on your situation

just let him enjoy himself , money comes , money goes , no big deal

You should be grateful..

If he was a regular on PS then that all in call would have been with 8 4 off suit..

The kids a genius

This thread is to funny, the only sane and reasonalbe one is kerouacsdog, for all who wanted to know about him, he's 17 turning 18, still in highschool, I still let him play on my account but only in front of me, we still argue over his dumb poker moves, and he's just hard headed, but I did change my password on there, so he only plays when he comes over on the weekends and then it just ends up still costing me some money sense he doesn't like to lose, or play small pot poker at all, but no biggy, I make it up myself at the end of the week all in all, I swear your all to funny, "thanking him", "Gold braclets", hahahah
