I agree. And I'd hate to have to carry around all that cash to play. I don't think I've had had more then $200 in my wallet before and i dont think id like to carry around a couple thousand.

Add to that the inevitable annoying jack-ass who says "that's what I put you on" at every showdown win or lose.

What is up w/that anyway. These idiots are almost NEVER right. I never show my cards and this guy at our games always says, "I put you on a pocket pair" or whatever. He has only gotten it right once in 6 months and he is very smug about it, like he's got me read. I think tomorrow night I'm gonna bet him a side pot on the spot for $20 he is wrong. Maybe that will finally shut him up.

I love the fact I can turn on the computer and play poker whenever I want, for any stakes, in an honest game,

How about all of those aces that show up on the turn?

Waiting lists.
30-35 hands per hour.
Dealer errors.
Dealers soliciting tips.
Getting slowrolled.

Live poker is an occasional diversion for me. When I'm playing for real, I would rather be online.

There's more of everything going on online than in a casino. In terms of frequency, I'd guess there's more casual collusion going on online than in a casino, but if I'm being cheated then the people cheating me aren't very good at it.
