Will have to observe the lady on the programme last night, to see if she plays cash or tournaments. If she can make that much money from $100, it is worth giving it a serious go.
Just like trading, only a small % of poker players make money, so it is not that easy to be a winner.

They did mention something about tournaments. The man they were following won the first table, but lost at the next one. I don't know much about it, but he seemed to have lost all his stake money.
They gave Party Gaming.com quite a few plugs. I had a look at the website. Poker seems to have changed since my mispent youth. Now it's 2 hole cards and 3 or 4 in the middle face up.
Do you know of a good book on it ?
Is it a good time to jump in before all the mugs get cleaned out ?
