Side Games at Poker Sites

Well I have been able to walk away in the past but the inevitable always happens, lol.

Side games at poker sites have been my biggest down fall for losing my poker bankrolls. I find that when you play Black Jack at most poker sites it will let you win a few then drain you dry. Not always though because they rely on your greed to do all their work for them. I dont know how many times BJ on Absolute Poker has let me go on a big winning streak a few times over $1000.00 even. I may log off and quit then but Im back the next day to lose it. When I used to be an affiliate for CD Poker and I was new at it, I was checking my affiliate earning from players wagering and I saw that I had lost money. So I emailed my affiliate manager there and asked why I lost money. There reply was:

"Players get lucky from time to time on the casino games, But dont worry about it. No one really wins. In the long run they all lose."

After I read that reply I stopped playing the side games on that network.

Well good to see a little behind the scenes conversation RocketMan. I had to say that AP is definitely where I have lost the most money. Great idea for the poker sites to add blackjack and other side games. I'm sure we aren't the only ones to lose our rolls through them, lol.

well I'm like most win for awhile then give it back,like ND said knowing when to stop is the key.I really do like playing them though there a great break when the cards go bad.

Side games is one thing I have never tried online and from what everyone is saying I think I'll keep it that way.

The only thing I can advice you all is to FORGET about any side games while playing poker. It requires your full concentration.

Never play poker or any other game if you are just bored, you need to be alert and no distractions.
