Re: Best site to start?
I'm figuring I'll probably put $200 wherever I decide to start my O/8 playing... so, would that be OK for the Party .5/1? That's what I started with for the .5/1 HE games on Party, so hopefully it...

Best site to start?
I'm not quite ready to start playing O/8 just yet... I'm reading Tenner/Krieger, but I'm just curious as to if anybody has any suggestions on where the best micro-limit games of O/8 would. I've...

Re: Huge swings common after SSHE?

Re: Go ahead and buy PT now?
This might sound very dumb and newb-ish to some, but I'm curious as to if Party Poker or any other sites consider using PT while you play as unethical or "illegal"? It just seems like a serious...
