online poker has changed alot and forums come and go as does poker sites.black friday has killed the freeroll private games at all but a few solid forums.with sites not accessable to u.s. players it has also affected the payouts of games i previously played.one example is a 2 dollar buy in mtt went from paying 240.00 down to 54.00.so to me the force of the u.s.players is astounding to cause this.i personally prefer the private forum game due to the number of players and the ability to enteract with the same players while building friendships and having fun.for me its more that then the money.now i find myself playing more basement type buy ins that are public ones with a differant mindset of players.i've had a couple of my accounts over 1,000 and have not deposited more then 150 total. i cashed out at 1 site for 500 but have lost the rest. however i continue to be able to play cash games and have tried my hand at 5/10.00 and 10/20.00 ring just to find its the same as any other ppl will play any 2 and chase to the end.so now im in a rut not caring to build my br but just winning enough to play.maybe one day the us will be back in it and all will return to normal.
