I just got into this online poker jive, and because it is not quite "legal" I do not wish to put money into it in case I win. So the safe root to go is the freerolls, right. If I win and finally get into a big tourney that pays me $5,000, do I go down for embezzlement, or do I have to go to a different country to collect? Whats the deal?
And just want to say hello to all the Poker crack addicts and Good Luck when I see you on the tables!

You terrorist, unpatriotic, sinning dirtbag!
Your country has told you what you can and can not do. Who are you to question what your country has decided is in your best interest? Do you hate your country? Sure seems like it, you communist piece of filth. Why do you want to gamble anyway? Are you just like all those other homeless dirt mongers that always attempt to get something for nothing at the expense of those who must ultimately lose? Jesus says we must love our neighbor, as we love God. If you would not try to cheat God out of his money, then you should certainly not try to cheat your neighbor.
Ephesians 4:28- Do not steal but labor at good (beneficial) work!
Thessalonians 3:10-12 - Like Paul, people should work so they can eat their own bread (NOT OTHER PEOPLE'S BREAD). If they will not work, they should not eat!
And you want to play freerolls. You want to risk nothing and put in nothing so that you may steal from Paul. That sir, is deplorable.

so God is sat in on the table and you flop quads .....Is it ok to slow play against God's flopped full house or do we just go for the throat (metaphorically speaking)?.

Safe roots include potatoes, carrots, onions, radishes, parsnips and ginger.

Push. Either Zeebo is right or dude really is a superuser and folds anyway.

It is only illegal for banks to process transactions that have to do with gambling.
It is far easier to stop it at the banking level, than the individual. Put a real restriction on gambling and see what happens. I'm sure at least a couple hundred thousand individuals are going to be angry and have nothing to do with all this extra time they suddenly have on their hands.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

To everybody else, Thank you. So it is illegal for me to deposit, but not collect?
So my objective challenge to myself is to place into a real seat tourney from the freeroll and take out this freak.
Any tips would be nice.
Peace guys, see ya on the tables

What the fuck? How did this become a religious thread?

That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.

No one ever makes it big with freerolls, that shit is a myth.
Get some cash together (like $350 or so should be good) and sit partially stacked at a couple 1/2 tables. EZ game.

Ive only been at it a month now and have made a few buck, but lost it at the cash tables. I think I do better in tourneys, cuz I don't like to walk away till every one is done.
When I get a few bucks, Ill let you guys know and we will play.
I still would rather play in person. Computers will always be second best for game play.

I am just a newbie... and I don't have real cash at the moment. So for the past few weeks I am trying my luck @ freerolls tournaments. But so far my earnings are 0...

Well I just started up again 3 weeks ago and I am up to $3! and have a few extra tickets!
All you M Fers talkin shit about not wanting to take the house's $$
Look the FUNK OUT!
And to all you other pep's that answered the Q' I actually did ask.
Life is cool and if you need some one to file your taxes this season to keep[ from losing your winnings. I will sure try to help.
But like I said, I am here to try my odds against the house, not illegally take it down.
That would be a coup d'etat. If there is a will there is a way!

Yes you can make it big at freerolling, just graduate from that to the small buy-ins and then go bigger and bigger as you get better and better, and as your bankroll permits
Soon enough you'll be playing the Sunday Million, take one of those down and you've done pretty well.
