also want to clarify to those out there who think folks are just bitchin about the sites because they suck at poker. i consider myself still a beginner at poker, and i consider my skill level to be pretty good, not great but good. the issue here is that things happen on those sites that i havent seen happen much in the real world with live players across the table from you. if you have trip kings on the flop, you go all in , and you find yourself losing to a guy ( or maybe its the sites robot, dont know) who had 7-5 offsuit and picked up the last two pieces of his straight on the turn and the river.

i call bodog "THE STRAIGHTMAKER" due to this. wont play there anymore, it just doesnt represent reality enough for me.
