stop thinking of it as gambling and look at it as chess for money mixed with psychology.

i wouldn't recommend it as a career for anyone but it's an entertaining distraction.

nothing is better than sitting at an online table filled with bad players complaining the site is rigged yet unable to walk away from an allegedly fixed game before they're broke.

that's the level of opponent you want.

it's rewarding on more than a financial level.

that's when I hit the sportsbook to wager on races more out there. don't want to start a table game, as might not have the time to follow thru. go to the racebook, get a drf and play the various tracks, to kill some time until you have to go to the airport.

although, some of the daily poker tourneys in vegas are good. blinds go up rapidly, so entire tourney takes 60-120 min (with breaks!!!). Longest one I played in, made it to the final table and took about 2 1/4 hours and all of them I've played in give a 10-15 min break each hour. Most were in the 90 min range and I've cashed at a very large percentage of them.

Did you just bluff lowcar??

Keep up the good work. I took a major nap this evening, I might give the Feurgeson a shot. Nothing big tonight.

I can't get on Full Tilt as snipersb23, I can get emailed a temporary password but then it doesn't work. I haven't been on there in about 5 years since it was first starting. Funny thing is I can get on as Paris Hilton, the second account I made as a joke to mess with people.

Full Tilt, I'm SHIPemMATE

and on Pokerstars, I'm TrentCole1

Play sparingly, usually on nights that I have off the next day. Play the Feurgeson's and Midnight Madness' usually. Throw in cash games here and there. Nothing beats playing live though. 2-5 n/l, hitting the Taj for about 10 hours and watch the table carousel. Will join a tournament if the structure is right. Weekends are the best, esp. summer holiday weekends. in the bank!!

I need to get some coin together and head your way one weekend.

I was forced to make the move to FT after PStars started giving me the mariggamaroo. Which site do you use?

Nothing now, used to be on Full Tilt all the time but got bored of it and my firepay account expired which in turn automatically locked me out of Full Tilt. Firepay wanted me to fax them all sorts of stuff so I never bothered. I guess that is why snipersb23 isn't valid anymore. I'm just playing a play money tourney now with my backup name to see if I get the itch back.
