Message: [QUOTE="DanS87, post: 6261042, member: 478644"] When I first started out playing poker I was worried about losing money, although I suppose everyone is when they first start out. The first time I played was at an organised game at a friends. I spent a while learning how to play poker a few days before. The buy-in was £20. Not a lot, but I was a student at the time and didn't have loads of cash. Through sheer beginners luck (definitely not skill) I managed to place second and won double my buy-in back (winner took the rest of the pot). As for playing poker online, I knew about freerolls before I started playing, so was never too worried about losing money. Also, being older and working now the cash situation is much better that losing on a few micro stakes game in the long run wouldn't be an issue. [/QUOTE]
