Hi guys
need ideas on how to do this, Im a small winner on ipoker $9k over 300 games (mtts) but time to take this serious. I need your advice. My twin cousins have been diagnosed with diplegic cerebral palsy which basically means if they dont have this operation they are not going to walk by the time they are 5.
The operation costs 100k for them both and I know im not going to reach that but i want to help as much as i can through such things as bonus and rakeback. Im looking at starting to play super turbos and earn lots of rakeback and help them.
if you can give me any other ideas i would be grateful.

thanks for reading,,,i will update

honestly think playing poker is probably one of the WORST ways to raise this money.

you will constantly be playing with scared money, and every single bad beat will hurt THAT much more

it will literally be impossible to raise this money for the above reasons while playing poker

+2 I can understand wanting to do everything you can to help your cousins but 100k is a lot of $$$ and the above mentioned reasons for it not being a good idea are spot on.

Poker is not an easy game, it takes allot of focus and discipline, I don’t agree with giving you advice to do it or not, but I will give you my opinion. Don’t focus on your goal, just play your A game, you sound like you know some theory about poker, 9K Roll its very good ‘’depending on your deposits’’.
Figure out a proper Bank Roll Management, set yourself some stop losses, get coaching, study and grind.
Just don’t lose more then you can afford.
All this guys have made it!
