    I don't think it sucks, but I agree it hurts your live competition play.

    Ultimate Bet has the best software, but Full Tilt and Pokerstars have more players. I usually play one table at UB and one at Full Tilt.

    You just need to understand that they're 2 different games. :)

    how so? the only way it hurts my game is b/c of the pace. every hand is angonizingly slow b/c of idiots who keep asking the same question:

    "who raised?"

    who cares dumbass, you're gonna call anyways.

    live players are definitely looser than internet players.

    I am in the process of doing something poker related in the games field that would be with the land based casinos here in the USA.

    As soon as they enter the online space, expect the US laws to change rapidly...probably in a couple of years....IMO.

    All it will take is a nice tax package for the government and bingo...online poker in the USA.

    I disagree. I have become drastically better in live games since I started playing on the 'net.

    Agreed. Don't you hate it when guys with 2 pair call your straight?

    We need to do another tourney soon.
