I agree. Clearly OP doesn't know much about poker. I make mistakes and make money all the time (but I'm bad at poker). Every mistake costs you *theoretical* money, but since OP doesn't understand the concept of theoretical money (as evidenced by claiming the dealer cost him $1800) I don't think thats what he meant.

Around here we call this Sklansky bucks and they're almost like real moneyzzz!

As to the OP, he's definately not a "pro", unless you mean a pro in the sense that Sammy "take it out on the dealer" Farha is a pro too, then yes, it makes sense.

Each mistake could *theoretically* cost him money.

Conversely, mistakes making money is what helps keep the games full.
