Seems to be pretty much the same with all of us.  We seem to play higher live
than we do online.  For me I have never really felt at home playing online in
general just that old face to face factor adds so mcuh to the game.

So it seems to be holding true.
We almost all play higher live than we do online.

Oh, and I love you too, darling.  You don't have to like me, and surely all the
more reason for you to take my money and rub my noise in it.

After all, in a lot of your post, you always claim to have the right answer and
anyone who disagrees is a moron etc.  Now is your opportunity to prove it.

There's a difference between posting here and not wanting to spend time
with someone I don't care to be around.

What you say is the main reason I don't play below 15-30 live and in smaller
cardrooms try to play only the biggest game going.
I also have cashed out of many many games just because the other players were
the type of people I would never talk to unless forced.
Also I can not stand a drunk at a table.  A drunk at my table will get me to
quit in a heartbeat.

Nick straight up:
Just how much do you trust online poker sites?
For me I have very little trust in some players in Europe based on what I have
seen in the past.  I am 99.999% sure some players in Europe can see all the
cards

I used to trust the bigger sites, until the AP scandal.  That's why I rarely, if
ever, play above 3/6 these days.  I figured that if anybody could really see
their opponents' hole cards, they'd be creaming it at 10/20 and above, or at the
very least 5/10 when there are no bigger games, and not brother with smaller
limits.

I am not sure if there are that many people with the intelligence here to hack
their way into a system to see hold cards, hence I am prepared to play up to
5/10 if we can get an RGP cash game going.

Best plan is not to play online. All of your hole cards are belong to us.

Mwahahahahaha (from Europe).

This is exactly why you're such a fuckin loser in poker and in life.
You lack the understanding of why you don't give out every detail of
everything some idiot wants to know about you.

In poker, as in life - information is power. You are the type that
gives it freely thinking you're impressing someone. You think you buy
friends by doing anything they ask of you. That only makes you a
dimwitted moron.

<waves>

At current exchange rates, my usual live game is $6/$6 PL. Anything higher
only usually gets spread when a festival is on.

> Who on here plays limits on line higher than $.50 $1 no limit?

<still waving>

$2/$4 NL is my usual game, happy to play $3/$6, $4/$8 and $5/$10 when
there's a full ring game going.

ok ok my secret is out - i play bad and at low limits

My on line games are rarely higher than 2-4 and once in a while I play
some 1-2 NL on line and B&M. On line I am just as likely to be in a 50C
- $1 limit as a 2-4. I play at several sites and contrary to my
reputation I have managed to win a little at all but one site.

My B&M play is 4-8 HE to 15-30HE with as much 10-20 Omaha8 half kill as
I can find in Biloxi which tends to be at the Beau Rivage which is
usually limited to Friday nites. Since I am unhappy with the Beau I
have been playing elsewhere and there are few (meaning none) red chip
games so I play mostly 4-8 with a sprinkling of 1-2NL. The NL games can
range from pretty passive to really wild so some play like 2-5 or even
10-25 once in a great while

It is well is well know that I am the worst pot limit player on the
planet although I have improved recently to just really bad. I have been
playing in some low buy in PL omaha8 games on line and at those levels I
have advanced to being just a small loser. As for mid limit games there
are just damn few (becoming none) on the Mississippi coast and I found
them almost as rare in LV on my last trip.

My views on playing with you and a few others here - Why would i want to
do that? I am a marginal player that gets lucky in the right games and
I manage to break even or lose a little over time. Your game seems to
combine the worst - on line poker for higher stakes than I play on line
in a game of good players and pot limit at that. My luck can only go so
far - if it was a no rake private game - I might give it a try - but on
line with a bunch of sharks - where do I send my check?

good idea and I wish you well but I would have a better chance playing KENO
