    And yeah, of course you adjust if you think someone is drawing to a gutshot, and needs a 5, and you're holding 55, you can already play it as a 1 outter.

    I used to play a TON of poker. I was staked at FullTilt for a while by a dude who recognized me. We used to play alot of private games at PokerStars where we'd have guest PokerStars Pros join. I've played with nanonoko and a few other pros. I think at one time I was playing 40-50 forty-five man games a day, and 5 10k+ entry tournaments a day. I was a real student of the game for a long time and had alot of Poker School Online instructors that I could privately talk about the game with.

    .... and then black friday ....
    Wow, you were way more hardcore than me! I used to play on Full Tilt but I mostly played Razz. I used to play in all the FTOPS razz events. The people playing razz were much weaker than the people playing Hold 'Em online, even if razz had a crazy amount of variance. :)

    I never did as well online in Hold Em as I did in person. I think there were just that many more very good players online than I'd encounter in 2/5 or 1/2 NL at the Borgata.

      Lotta morons playing holdem online.

      I had a friend of mine tell me that in the WSOP Main Event the early stages are just like playing a freeroll online. Crazy players.

          haha man I couldn't believe some of the crap I'd see in WSOP main event. The best example of LOL DONKAMENTS.

          I still love Hank Azaria folding his pocket kings pre-flop to someone with pocket aces. No one pulls one over on Chief Wiggum!

            I used to make about 10% of my income a year somewhat casually playing at people's home games and at the Borgata. There's nothing that beats good, regular home games!
