I don't know how many of you have seen the movie Rounders but ever since that movie came out everyone thinks they can be a professional poker player. Now I'm not saying someone can't but if your gonna try at least do it correctly and learn a little something about the game other than just the rules before you go out and lose all your money.
Poker in colleges around the world is a lot of fun as a recreational use but to think it can be used as a long term (happy) life is a mistake that i feel many people are making. I play professionally around the world and on many websites. I do recommend using it as a additional source of income but you must be careful. As you would do with your Organization or class you should read up on some strategies. Books cost as little as $20 and are so full of useful information that you can be an average player in as little as memorizing a 100 page book.
Now classes are very important while your at college so make sure you get that diploma. If you don't people will not only make fun of you for failing to get it but people won't respect your opinion as often as you deserve.
This middle bit was spam
Now I am not trying to promote any type of illegal activity so if your not legal you shouldn't do this most places require you to be 18 but some are 21 . What i do want is for the people who are going to play to be smart and don't lose money. I see many people in the on-line community taking lots of new students money when they should be partying or studying. Most of all it should be fun. If you get good its something you can do for a long time to come. good luck everyone, play smart or don't play at all.
This guy is a real saint huh, god bless him for posting here

ok, this is the second time i have seen you post bonus codes for party poker, even thou you buried then in an extremely long-winded post. do not let there be a third time or you will not be here very long. i gave you the benefit of the doubt in your other thread, but i am now putting you on notice. do it again and you will suffer the consequences.

Long-winded, but makes up for it by being poorly written.

Substitute the word 'play' for 'post' and heed your own warning. This is perhaps the saddest spam I have ever read, wot a waste of his own time, how dumb are we sposed to be then? I'm so insulted I might just ban you. If you can gimme a reason not to, go ahead. You have 24hrs
