>> Let me know please how neteller works for you. I am holding off for a bit till I talk to some users.

Uh, sorry, I almost forgot.

Some use it (neteller) and like it. I tried and didn't worked. First I tried with credit card and it was denied. (I have exlellent credit with high fico score)

Then I tried to use my saving bank account and again for some strange reason didn't worked. So I gave up. Because I found better, faster way. Probably more expencive.

epassporte.com

ePassporte - with Full Tilt Poker. You can use your credit card. After they check your account - they will send few pennies to your accound, and then you let them know, what amount it was, you can use it. It is fast, I did it in around 30 minutes (including calling my credit card account to see the amount) and it worked well.

You can transfer minimum 50$ and they charge you 5$ for the service. Grrr, lol

The way it works, once they verify your account, you get another, virtual credit card number with (again virtual) expiration day and you use that one to fund your account at Full Tilt Poker.

I'm now playing 5c/10c and FullTiltPoker. I must say, it is waaaay different than playing for fake money. I have no problems making A LOT fake money, but I'm strugling with real money. I guess I need some adjustments. But I do have some bad luck. I lost four times with pocket KK (always all in) and I lost once with pocket AA (someone called my all in with pocket QQ and flop the set)

So I don't know, if I need to do serious adjustments or it is only bad luck, since I'm lossing big with high pocket pairs, ( I newer won any yet and they soupose to be the best preflop hands!) but I'm usually succesfull with stealing small amounts.

I guess I better stop playing 'all in'. Or maybe that bad luck will stop.

Btw, playing with friends for real money it's different. There I have regular luck/unluck as you would expected and I'm way more sucessfull.

Btw, anyone know, which book is the best for uncovering online playing technics and tricks? Book wich is focusing on online low $ play's? But must be the best one, lol
