[QUOTE="Pokerpoet2, post: 7044911, member: 430261"] My Parents were very sceptical about me playing Poker many years ago , my Father was under the impression that if an opponent had more money than you they could theoretically buy the pot, Which could happen in other games of chance, but when I explained that at any point during the game You can call a huge bet with just 1 chip left in your stack by going all-in, He still couldn't quite grasp it. They always told me to be careful and not lose too much money, and When I told them I only play freerolls, this baffled them even more, "How can a Poker site make money, giving it away?" They asked. Quite simple I would reply, for every player like myself that makes money for Free there are thousands of other players that think it is "Easy Money" and will deposit huge amounts trying to win huge amounts. I'm happy winning a few Cents and building a Free Bankroll from nothing! I promised my Wife when I first started playing On-line Poker that I would never make a deposit, that way I couldn't possibly lose any money, because she was under the same impression as my parents. Poker was Evil and a bad form of Gambling. I proved that any site that offered Freerolls were open to players like myself to build a Bankroll from Freerolls and then use that money to buy-into other games, Sure it's hard work! But far more rewarding if you can do it for Free! Poker was never about making myself rich, It has always been about playing the game with money that was never mine to begin with, Every buy in game I lose has cost me nothing, Because I am playing with the site's money, not my own, and that is Priceless!
