dpac Posted March 13, 2005 Report Posted March 13, 2005 I was looking to dl a Poker game, but I did not want one that came along with a bunch of hidden spyware and what not. Anyone here play online? If so what do you use.
Nightfall Posted March 13, 2005 Report Posted March 13, 2005 I use Paradise Poker, as I like how they are set up. I like the rnage in tourneys they have also. The only reason I would think about using Party Poker for is their Bad Beat tables, but I seem to get my ass kciked on those, and those alone for some reason.
AboveAverage484 Posted March 13, 2005 Report Posted March 13, 2005 I use Party Poker, of course no matter what you use there will always be mutherfuckers goin all in on every hand. If you have 50 dollars, I'd recommend playing for real money.
Jobber of the Week Posted March 14, 2005 Report Posted March 14, 2005 I would reccomend AGAINST playing for real money, at the very least until you examine the fine print of the financial institution whose card you wish to draw money from. Many banks and credit companies refuse to give money to online gambling. Just the other day on another board I found someone complaining because CitiBank won't let him play poker. Interested, I looked at the Terms booklet for my bank, US Bank, and found much the same thing.
Guest Coffey Posted March 17, 2005 Report Posted March 17, 2005 Another vote for Pokerroom.com It gets updated regularly, and it's really popular. Plus it focuses more on the card play than it does with stupid shit like setting your face to show you're on tilt and ignorance like that.
Zetterberg is God Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 I play at True Poker once in a while.
CanadianChris Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 Mostly PokerStars, occasionally at Full Tilt Poker.
Youth N Asia Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 I don't get online poker. The game boils down to reading people and figuring them out, not "the best hand wins" which is pretty much what's online.

Nah, you can still read people based on how they bet, which is where you get the majority of your reads in a live game anyway. The number of hands where you get a real tell based on a facial expression or something is really miniscule, unless the people you're playing with are just terrible.
CanadianChris Posted April 3, 2005 Report Posted April 3, 2005 Finished 2nd in a $5 tournament yesterday. 735 entrants. Made $1900.
AboveAverage484 Posted April 3, 2005 Report Posted April 3, 2005 If anybody wants to play on PartyPoker, just hit me up on AIM, my user name is same as my name here.

Interested, I looked at the Terms booklet for my bank, US Bank, and found much the same thing. There is a simple way around this. If you have a checking acct you can set up a user acct with a service like Firepay. You can withdraw money from them for a minimal fee. Its really easy. That is what I use because my Debt card wont allow me to put money on a gambling or gaming site. When I play I typically use PartyPoker or PokerStars
