The lower stakes just end up really ticking me off, with all the river chasers catching miracle cards through oblivious play.

When I talk to my friends about it, they say "it happens to us all," and "I know how ya feel, bud." What's up with you people attacking me, as if I'm some monster because I got a little emotional during a game of poker?

[/ QUOTE ] We are not your friends. Especially after you admitted you are a criminal to us. [ QUOTE ]
if the way people play at these sites for fake money is any indication of how horrible they play for real money, I'll be making a lot more than $150/hour online.

Am I just a newbie fish that should get the heck out of your world?

[/ QUOTE ] No, You are a newbie, fish, scamming jackass who feels justified in scamming people because you were a moron and fell victim to a scam yourself. Go away. Based on all your posts, I am quite confident in asserting that you do not have the skills necessary to be in the top 8 percent of poker. And make no mistake, it is only the top 8 percent of players that actually show a profit online. Therefore, you will lose.
