disagree with that post. Screw grammer, no one gives a damn. I hope my grammer is bad, helps let people no I'm human. Anyways, I think that keeping your business away from gambling is a very good idea. Even if you are a good player, you are never too far away from loosing it all in one bad beat. Just my opinion though. |
1) A surprising number of people give a damn.
You'll never know just how many people you would otherwise have converted are turned off by simple mistakes like "no" instead of "know", or simple spelling mistakes, or whatever and leave the site to find one that doesn't look like it was written by a moron.
You gain nothing from poor English and might lose plenty.
2) If you're a good player, there's no way in hell you're losing it all to a bad beat.
If you're a good player than you understand bankroll management and don't put all your money on the table at once. Unfortunately most people who think they are good players are not.
It also makes no difference if you lose $200 of your existing bankroll or your $200 monthly commission. If you're not going to play poker because you might take a bad beat, then you're a very strange person.
If you meant that you might lose your month's commissions to a bad beat, then that is entirely possible, but if you were buying into an NL table for your whole monthly commission, your poker bankroll is several times larger than your commissions, so you're probably making more money from being a player than an affiliate.
The only way that playing poker with affiliate payments is a mistake is if you are a bad player.
