Good Afternoon,
As warned by one or two of you when I signed up to Blonde Poker but I have been spending most of my evenings in the forum. I am still enjoying the posts some of which have been excellent reading.
I am a net player mainly and use William Hill in STT for stakes ranging from one to five quid. Obviously like all of us I aspire to play for the bigger money but I was wondering how many of the forum users play at a similar level to what I do at the moment.
I have considered putting up a post or two relating to how I played a hand but given the stakes were so low I have refrained, although I would be bashful about posting "I was CL with 1400 in a $2.25 MTT with 85 players left" I would still do it for the benefit of the advice I might receive from the forum, if I knew not everyone on this site plays for a minimum of $25 per game.
Regards
DTM

I play 0.10c STTs on VC  The level really doesn't matter when you are seeking hand advice as long as you state it in your original post - nobody will judge you either way. We all need to start somewhere.

I also play low levels. Unfortunately whenever I cash anything reasonable it has to come straight out to pay off a variety of debt and bills so 'bankroll' is not a word I can use just yet.
I too am also a little reluctant to post up hand advice questons regarding low limit games as the answer for most questions will involve the word 'idiot'.

Low level or high level, you will have people play hands like an idiot, so don't worry. Just ask newmanseye.

I play low stakes too. $10 STT on PP and £5 STT on Betfair mainly. I'd like to be able to play for higher stakes too but until my bankroll gets healthy, putting food on the table comes first

I play low stakes, occasionally branching out to do sats for bigger buy ins...please don't feel you can't ask for railbirds, advice or anything just becauise you are a low stakes player!
Everyone is equal here, and everyone is allowed to participate and get the most from the place:)
Heid xx PS Welcome!

Thank you gents, I am not embarrassed by the level I play at in fact I am quite happy with the improvements I have made in the six months I have played. I was just 'aware' of the stakes being mentioned in the majority of posts and just wanted clarity on where I stood. Which I now have, so cheers

Heid I would ask for reailbirds, I'm not afraid. But I can't remember the last time I reached a suitable point at which to request said birds in an online MTT regardless of level  I dunno, I treat online play as something of a laugh and save my cash for live tournies where I do much much better. I know I should be trying to make my bread and butter on the internet but at the moment I have a comfortable day job and I don't have a bankroll with which to justify dumping into an online site and putting any level of work in.

 Heid, I ignored the warning about further posts when I was typing my reply, I have just learned NOT to do that in future, my reply was typed in response to the first few replies. My sincere apologies DTM
