Re: Ways to improve your game without real money?
When you get done with the play chips, don't forget you can sell them for real $. Search google for the best rates, but it's usually around $50 for a million playchips.
That could even be an intermediate goal- earn enough playchips to start your new bankroll for 2008.

Re: Ways to improve your game without real money?
Don't use play money, use real money but set a specific goal. Deposit $10 and that has to be turned into $250 only playing .01/.02.
Grind it out. You'll both be punished for playing above your Bankroll, because it's torturous to play at that level, and you'll actually make some money so by next year you can move up. Plus, as bad as the play is there, it's better than at freeroll. Just remember, you can't allow yourself to move up until the goal is reached.

Re: Ways to improve your game without real money?
I'll just touch on a few highlights.
[ QUOTE ] To improve you need good reading material relevant to the games you play. IMHO you need to play real money even if at very low stakes. [/ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] The first thing I would do is review as much of your play history as you can to find out why you went busto. [/ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] My biggest tip for you is to learn proper BR skills. [/ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Before I played at all- online or in a casino, I practiced for several months using Poker Academy software. [/ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] One thing about your post that jumped out at me is that you lost money when you tried HORSE. [/ QUOTE ]

[/ QUOTE ] You can do it, you just can't take close edges. You have to pass them up. The point isn't to make money, it's somewhat a punishment for not watching your BR. Now, you're FORCED to pay as much attention to BR as you are to the game. 20 Buy ins and you can play poker without BR in the back of your mind. 10 Buy ins, you can't.
