My father and Poker Stars. OT.

[TripleH68]

So my father knows I play poker online. He has periodically given me crap about it for a couple years while he plays ring games and tournaments for fun on some computer game(Hoyle Casino I think). He is retired from his job. And he is an old time poker player. Five card stud, Chicago, etc. Hold'em is pretty new to him.

This past weekend we were up at the lake and my mother just bought a laptop computer for the cabin a couple months ago. My dad starts asking me to set him up online to play. So I download PS, set him up an account and transfer him $25. I opened up a .10/.20 table for him and got him going. Within five minutes he is acting insulted that I would start him off playing for dimes. Then he is complaining that it is 'only a dime' so everybody calls. See where this is going? Within a half hour he is at .25/.50. That night he quit with about $16 left. I peered over his shoulder a couple times as he was limping in EP with 53s and A5o and such.

So I am back home now and he calls today to say he busted out and he wants to know how to put more money into Stars. First of all I am not giving you his screename you damn leech. But do I help him with how to send more $$$?

btw, momma is not happy. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
