Playing your real $$ BR on high stakes tables when your opponents could be cooperating against you? I mean, if they want to use every edge to win, why wouldnt they?
(and, for the record, i HAVE experienced this form of tactics)
i am not "new" to online poker... but who is to say they are not isntant messaging, or on the phone or sitting next to each other playing against you and other players (some ARE)... and I am sure there are lots of other ways to cheat as well... so why risk it...
its not like you are really getting too much better at "reading" your opponents, although you get to experience exponentially more hands than the old guys like doyle... and it does give hope to people like me who dont have a license to shove off to the poker room every weekend...
but for the past many months i have strayed from redepositing on any sites and stuck to my freeroll bux...
and what about the "bots" sure they are out there... but not every player who doesn't chat and plays tight is a bot, lol...
and i have not returned to railbirds.com for five minutes and i am already complaining... hahahaha... my subject was what do YOU think... who cares what i think...

The only way you would really be at a disantavantage is if everyone else at the table was conspiring against you , by being on a messenger service together. 2 players doing it at a full table wouldn't give them enough of an edge to make a difference, at least I don't believe it would !
....play on ...Tc....
My attitude is why would I invest anything that isn't just play money onto online poker? Online poker is still cheaper than bowling and golf for entertainment.
The bigger stakes of $50.00 buy-ins on-line are low stakes at the casino's, which is one of the reasons you see people playing those games different than you would live.
