Re: My gambler friend thinks online poker is boring
not sure what you're looking for here...why attempt to force the guy to change his opinion. If he doesn't like it, he doesn't like it.

Re: My gambler friend thinks online poker is boring
I happen to think online poker is a lot of fun, and it's provided a very nice second income for me. If your friend is getting bored waiting for playable hands tell him about multi-tabling. Playing 4 tables there's a lot less time waiting for a good hand. Then again if he's not interested why push this issue? It's not like we really need another multi-tabling TAG playing online.

Re: My gambler friend thinks online poker is boring
It is more boring than video poker. Even multi-tabling you can not approach the 1000-1200 hands/hour that a good video poker player cranks out. And if your friend truly knows what he is doing with vp, I'm not sure I'd call him a gambler.

Re: My gambler friend thinks online poker is boring
First, he's right ... it is boring.
Compared to what though? Betting $10MM in video poker to grind out 100 grand in 2 years? Yikes. |

I'm only making about $4 per hour at Party 0.50/1. I've tried to explain how interesting it is to me, and that my current play is educational and could pay off in the future with $50-100+/hr earnings at higher limits when I get good enough. [/ QUOTE ] Getting a little ahead of ourselves? |

Re: My gambler friend thinks online poker is boring
Well, it is. If you're playing it right, you're folding most of your hands without a fight. If you like action, poker may not be your favorite game.
It's a matter of taste; many people find chess boring, whereas I'm happy to spend a weekend playing a tournament (and that's usually 4-6 games). I like the strategy of both chess and poker, others just aren't that interested. -Mike |
