Played internet poker for the first time today!

I disagree with you there because in many new players, like myself emotion comes to the table. If they win big pots they may get over excited and play to loose, if they lose a big pot they can go on tilt and either play weak tight or just way to loose. I have taken math courses and understand the logic that you are describing, but math isn't the only aspect of cards.

I'm going to have to agree with this one. Saying two sessions of 100 hands is the same as one session of 200 hands can be slightly incorrect. Statistically probable downswings are often amplified by emotion (tilt), so actually taking a break after a "bad hit" might prove to be beneficial for some people.

But that doesn't matter anyway, because online poker sites are rigged, right? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
