QUESTION FROM niomax: i would ask you a question if possible; when you started to play poker on-line, you started with a big bankroll or 50 / 100 dollars ?
ANSWER FROM Johan Storakers: Well, I have allways had a bankroll for my total poker so I have many times busted the small amount I have had online. Now on FTP I have a bigger roll but that is how I usually do.

QUESTION FROM LeMaddDogg: Why, at high stakes internet poker, do players always seem to min-raise instead of the 'standard' 3xBB?
