    Are you playing the real money tables? If so, you'll get a ton of bad <br>beats. I always play the Sit and Go's....be patient and you should be <br>able to finish in the top 3 the majority of the time. <br><br>I'm playing as we speak. <br><br>Jax

    I agree about playing the sit-and-go tourneys rather than live games. <br>There are crazy bad beats in the live games. You see quads WAY more often <br>than you would in a game in a casino. All kinds of wild shit. Plus, if <br>you're playing in the low limit games, which i consider anything below <br>10-20, the rake from the house is a killer over time. Almost impossible to <br>beat. Plus, you can't drive anybody out of a pot in low limit. Phil <br>Helmuth put it best: If someone wins a big chunk of money at a low limit <br>table, people say, "Gee, Jim sure got goods cards tonight." They never <br>say, "Gee, Jim played well tonight." Too much luck involved in low limit.<br>Good luck.<br>KK

    I've tried them all, and decided to stick with just one site. You start <br>running into the same players and know how they play. Plus I like the <br>graphics and they upgraded their servers so there's no more connectivity <br>problems.<br><br>Have you found one better than the rest?<br><br>Jax

    well only reason im with UB...<br>it was them or poker stars...poker stars seemed to new and mainstream( no <br>big endorsers) no raymer isnt one either..and didnt seem like they had a <br>alot of different butin amounts for tourns or reg games..<br><br>so UB gots big/real known poker players backin them(just not over night <br>winners)..and the other big thing was they have all kinds of buyin amounts <br>..for gms and tourns.. so i just thyink there the best..<br><br>usually no matter what u think everyone thinks "where"they play is the <br>best..<br>and usually its hard to get people to switch places after they have been <br>at one a site for a while..at least it seems like that 2 me... ohhh well <br>as long as were winning correct??

    Yes as long as we're winning. Put it this way....I would rather plunk <br>down $15 at a Sit-and-Go then put it on a MLB game. Can't seem to peg a <br>winner these days. <br><br>I just enjoy Hold'em. I'm playing as much as possible before baby <br>LineWatcher enters the picture. Then I think my online poker days are <br>numbered!!<br><br>GL at the Tables!<br>Jax

    Line, one of my very very good friends won the last big event that <br>paradise put on. It was 360,000 for first place. They flew the last 10 <br>players to Aruba/Costa Rica to play out the final table. I had a very <br>small piece of him but enough to make it worth while. It was back in April <br>I believe
