the cheaper the tournament the harder it is to win. happiness is more and more important. The underage players play all hands and win by luck or by chance

Hopefully there aren't playing any underage players online poker, because if they withdraw they will loose all the money on the poker account if they need to do a ID check.

Cheers,

So true. underage users are not allowed in the poker rooms.

If I understand DaIr8882 correctly, he was meaning "immature" or just "young" or perhaps "inexperienced"

As for the comment that "the cheaper the tournament, the harder it is to win" then that may be true if you play the freerolls the same way you play the higher buy-ins.

For almost a year, I've been playing low buy-in tournaments on 888 -- mostly freerolls -- and have won over $170.
And I'm not even a hold'em player.

Actually, the worse the opponents are, the easier it is to get good results.

I mean, it really doesn't make sense when someone says "I can't succeed because my opponents are so bad".

Probably OP has had a bad beat where his AA was cracked by preflop allin against 73o or something. It happens. The key is to understand how opponents play, and then come up with an optimal strategy versus them. And also understand what variance is.

Hi B4riloche,
English only in the English forum please.

If you prefer, there is a Spanish forum...

Best Regards,
