Playing Poker Online With Minimum Financial Risk
For many new online poker players the dream is to deposit a small amount of money, usually around $50 and build it up playing poker and having fun. However, the reality for most is that they find poker to be more difficult than they realised and en up losing the money they deposit which is no fun at all.
Poker is a game of skill but there is still a large element of luck. Even the most skillful players can loose important hands and tournaments having made all the right decisions based on statistical probability. For example if a player works out that he is a 95% favourite to win a hand, there is still a 5% chance that he will lose the hand. If he plays a lot he is likely to be in this situation quite regularly so one in twenty of these times he is going to get beaten, possibly badly.
As a new player it is almost certain that you are going to lose your first few bankroll deposits against more experienced opponents. So what do you do if you do not want to lose money but you do want to get some real money experience? Play Freerolls. Freerolls are tournaments which are free to play but the poker operator has put some real money in the prize pool. So you can win real money without any financial risk.
The idea would then be to play in the freerolls until you have enough money to start entering real money tournaments, then to carefully build your way up to the higher levels.
