The most noticeable difference, I think, is that I could see myself enjoying the high level game in poker, if I get there. The endgame in every MMO on the market made me throw up in my mouth.

I corrected the spelling.

I agree with you, I'm looking forward to the end-game content too (presuming I get there). Something about making more money an hour playing poker than my 9-5 is more appealing than getting an epic drop.

Sadly, I've never hit anywhere near the "endgame" since EQ. Unless you count Diablo 2, which you shouldn't, because counting that is stupid.

Funny thing is, with all the poker I've played, these days I feel I'd get a bigger rush out of raiding Nagafen and finally winning a damned Cloak of Flames in the roll, than I will playing poker unless I multiply the current stakes by 5 or so.

I play single table sit-n-gos exclusively. I can jump on the computer for 40mins at a time and 4-table them. I just cancelled my WoW account, and I had to 'book' nights off from my wife so I could get in a solid 3-4 hour Blackrock Spires run with the guild. She likes it more now, and I like it more so far too.

Although I'm still at the small stakes tables, I've made enough money in the last 2 weeks to pay for 10 months of MMO subscription fees (make that 5 months, since I dual-box).

72os doesn't need a buff. 72os has taken down my AA more times than I want to remember. However, the same newbs that play 72os in a rasied pot never took down my epic pet after I convinced them to use the /d onate command on me while they were begging for free stuff.
