Play Money

[kmb13592]

I disagree with this. Although the play is often unrealistic, it is still very helpful. You will need more than just play money experience to become a good player but it would say it is great experience. Until the summer most, almost all of my poker experience came from play money games on pokerstars. In august I sold some play chips for a couple dollars and started playing for real money for the first time. I got up to $1400 within a month and was playing very well. So all the play money playing had really prepared me for real money games, and I found the play money experience very beneficial.
