go to one of the sites and read about the "rake". That's how they make their money.

I have personal experience getting paid by WSEXpoker (my favorite place to play, but I rarely play there because of the lack of players), partypoker, and paradisepoker. I think they are just as reliable as the good sportsbooks.

So.......You are one of "them".

There is nothing more frustrating than having to wait at your table, while some jughead is making his next move seven tables down!

They should not allow multi-table playing.

We're going to have to stop agreeing like this man. I HATE when you are playing in a nice juicy game and some guy insists on playing two tables at once, neither of which he is keeping up with. If I see someone doing that I usually open up their other table and watch it for a while. Chances are he just slows down both and I say something. If you cant keep up with two you should only be playing one. Not saying thats what freeze is doing, but more often than not the multiple table players at least take a few extra seconds with every hand. It doesnt sound like a lot, but it can KILL a good table.

i play 3 tables at once and have no problem keeping up unless the phone rings or if i am interupted by someone else....

so no i am not one of "them"
