Play money is how I built my first bankroll. Selling the chips I used to make $100/day on average


How is possible to sale chips of play money?:joyman:
 
the only reason that you should play this kind of game is when you are a tottal beggining and know nothing. otherwise play money can makes you have a wrong vision of the game.
 
It's good when starting out but would be very careful with play money as it can make you not value money. Then when you switch to real money you might start taking unnecessary risks.
 
Yes, I often go to play for play money, I don’t feel sorry for them) I play broadly, with all my heart) but I follow the rules of the game, I will not raise 9 3 for no reason. play money gives you the opportunity to practice before playing for real money, or get acquainted with an almost unfamiliar type of poker.
 
If there is no price on poker, it is unnecessary to play... The game also changes, so I don’t even think it’s good as a practice. So i don't play....
 
Used to play on play money, But found that i just donked all the chips off and was no good for my game ��
 
Let beginners and children play with play money, but I'm not going to spend time on this, the casino will definitely let you win with play money, and let you lose with real money.
 
Its a good way to learn the game. But freerolls is a beter way for sure.


Funny thing, when i was playing for play money back in 2010 i felt almost the same as i play for real money. Just the feeling that im winning warms up my heart.
 
Play money or free-rolls, they both have a low standard of play because players use them for practice, you will always get the idiots pushing all in with any 2 cards simply because it has cost them nothing to play, but if you wait until the dust settles you then get to play poker.
I have and still do play with play money when I want to learn a new format of poker like "Razz" or "Short deck", still not very good in either, so I certainly would not use my bankroll to practice them.
It gives you a solid grounding in the way the games play and of course cost's nothing to learn the basics, but in all forms of poker the only way to really learn is to lose a few times and improve your play.

When the fun Stops, STOP!
 
Yes I like playing with play money. Stress free and you can practice some strategies..
 
For a beginner, this is a good way to learn the game and all its intricacies. But if you are confident in your abilities, then why not play for real money
 
Play money

I did when I started but quickly stopped. There is nothing to gain playing a PMG. With nothing to lose people play everything and it degenerates into an all in fest. If you want to play for free set up accounts and play every Freeroll you can. Your game will improve as you win pennies at first. Save those pennies and buy your way into small 10c- $1 tournaments. It’s what I did over the last year and now I play with their money and not my own. Stop wasting time on PMG.
 
When I started playing poker, I started with play money to gain experience, after a while I switched to real money play. Everyone should know how to start, but play money is a great way to gain experience
 
I can't take playman games seriously. I use the playman game to set up auxiliary programs, layout in general to test the interface without losing money.
 
I only play for real money. But there was a time when I played with toy money. I only play for real money because I don't have time to play with virtual money.
 
Played on and off with playman, but it was mostly a waste of time as everybody just went all-in all the time with nothing at stake to lose.

Much better experience were real money freerolls and low stakes (micro) cash and tournies.

Since it's free play money, people often doesn't care and play for fun. So it makes no sense playing for game chips somehow it doesn't even improve your poker imo.
 
It's not the same

Some people insist on saying that playmoney poker is the same as realmoney.
It clearly is not the same.
Consider playing odds or evens for fun. If you lose, even if there's no money envolved, you won't like it.
It is not the same as it doesn't present any risk to your pocket hahaha
 
It is just for fun when you don't want to play with real stakes but it doesn't compare with the real money game, but it is good if you want to learn the poker rules.

I dont agree. I remember when i started playing poker for play money, i was really excited to earn more. That means more game, that means higher tables, that means more interesting game. And if you lose all, that means no more game no more fun or you.
I remember spending alot of the time on that site, alot of chatting with lot of awesome people who just love poker, whether its real money or not. In fact, it was more interesting to play there then right now i play for real money, just because people are soo serious, very rare its a pot with more then 2, ok 3 players. 95 percent of pots go raise fold. Thats it.
 
playing with play money only serves to get started in poker and learn most of the basics, because as it is not real money people do not take it seriously and it ends up being a waste of time ... I think so
