I've been thinking about buying Doyle Brunson's "Super System" and trying to learn the ropes about poker. Now that blackjack has been relegated to "carnival game" (as in high house edge) status with 6:5 single deck, infinite shufflers, and ultra-paranoid surveillance that make card-counting all but impossible, I think poker stands as the only way to actually make money in the long term as a gambler.
I've been thinking about trying one of the online poker sites, but I'm worried about one thing. Namely, how can you be 100% sure that you're actually playing against other real people and not computer drones that attempt to steal pots and whittle away bankroll? Granted, Chris Moneymaker, who ended up winning the World Series of Poker last year, qualified for the tournament by winning an online event. But still....
If I do decide to try it out, either for fun or for real, I will PM you and let you know how it goes. Would you be so kind as to do the same? It would be nice to compare notes with someone else who's had some experience with it. Thanks.
On edit: Oh, you mean oreilly-sucks . com is YOUR site? I like that place, man! Keep up the good work! :)
