NO.

Probably on consideration a really stupid thing to do and wether it really has learned him anything only time will tell, but I really didnt want him getting involved playing online.
I love playing online and have my own plans in place to continue but really after being part of this forum I know about the ups and downs of online poker only a very small amount of players can boast making a decent profit and to make a living you have to be commited and have a very sensible steady head.
I felt that giving him an opatunaty to play in most games he wanted with knowing he could play as good or as bad as he says he plays would convince him that he cant sit infront of a pc and make a living out of poker, it just is not that easy.
looking at the game history of the hands he played he really did make some poor decisions he played in sit n gos ranging from $10 to a couple of $100 and mostly played in the 50-$1 nl tbls and a very strange thing to do playing in 50-$1 pl Omaha.
Ohh and he played in my silverstar game and didnt do to good in that also,I feel that losing $1000 has really hit home with him and he knows now that its bloody hard to make money but very easy to lose.
