Just curious

Are you happy with online poker?

your posting this on a poker forum?

Not to be Captain Obvious, but I think most people are going to say yes.

I thought this was a place for card players to voice opinions and discuss poker in an adult like fashion. Not to be Captain Obvious, but I guess I was wrong.

this is the scene in the movie where everyone standing around the 2 people about to fight say... "ohhhhhhhhhh"

Well, honestly i think most people will say the are happy with online poker... because if they weren't the easiest thing would be .....to not play online poker.

YES, just wish I was better at it.

Most people say they are unhappy with their jobs, yet they go to work everyday instead of finding new ones.

Jobs and poker are 2 different things, I don't see the comparison

You get paid to work but pay to play.

Maybe you don't have the option of choosing your job or you may think you don't. Jobs are exactly the same as poker. With a job you invest your time for a guaranteed return of payment. With poker, the investment is time and money with no guarantee of return.

^^^^Guilty^^^^




And to answer the Question that requres alot of analyzing......................................... .....yes......yes......yes(later hon, I'm trying to respond to this post).......after much scrutiny, I'd have to say it would be a definite yes for my vote

How about the people who live in the good ole US of A who have to spend countless hours wondering if the deposit they just made won't suddenly become illegal or that the poker site in question won't just kick them off and they have to spend 6 months trying to get their money.

Are you happy with Online poker?

Well, to put it simply (wink to those that know the reference) the answer to the poll is easy, you just never actually knew what the poll question was.

To ask in a poker forum if members are happy with online poker, you will get a resounding yes. But that answer gives you little to no information. What you should really be looking for is something more provocative and probing regarding poker, online banking, and gov't interference both domestic (US) and abroad. That is where the real question resides, in those topics.

Anyway...bonus points to the first person that can
1) give me the "Ultimate Answer" to the "Great Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything" AND
2) do so without searching the internet for it or in any other way looking it up, AND
3) tell me honestly that you actually knew it off the top of your head.

P.S. So long and thanks for all the fish.

The answer to the question is: "you"-being alive, breathing being who you are-without you none of this would exist.

42.

Now what's the question? That's the real question.

The question is far too general. Of course we all enjoy online poker. And currently we all have some frustration associated with it - at least those of us who reside in the US.

Who..what...when...where...why?

But even after the answer is found....what if somewhere else its different?

i am happy when i win!!if i lose it is rigged!!

happy yes but there are lots more bad beats online then live

only because most people dont spend 40+ hrs sitting at a casino every week.
Live dealers don't deal 34534561548 hands an hour to 698576574274 people everyday either.

Wow who are these 698 billion people, I would surely like to know where they are being stored.

I notice that this thread has been viewed 196 times, yet only 17 people voted. Wonder why that is?

Not to just repeat previous posters, but I don't know what type of answer you are looking for. I just voted, and well, obviously the answer is a yes to teh question you posed.

I think you need to be a bit more specific with the question. You need to ask what type of improvements should be made towards online poker, or what things you do not like about online poker. The question you asked is just too general, for you to get an actual poll out of. Most of the answers, like people before me have said, would be a yes. This is a poker forum.

Also, I don't consider poker to be comparable to an actual job. Unless you're a professional poker player, which most of us are not, then poker definitely cannot be compared to a job. Its more like a hobby or something people do for fun. Just because someone isn't that great or are very good at something doesn't mean they wouldn't continue to do it. For example, I used to play softball and run track when I was younger, and well I wasn't too great at softball, but I was one of the best track athletes at the school. I think I could say that most of the time, enjoyed playing softball more than running track. It's just something people do. I don't understand, or exactly play golf, or even watch it at all, but I think that might be a good exacmple, because I hear a lot of people well, aren't the best at it, but they love to play the game. It doesn't matter that they can't play too well, because they just like the game.

42 great book.

Base 13 Math 6 X 9 is possibly the ultimate question and the answer = 42

^^^^this

Maybe they don't like online polls. We could have a poll to find out. It could say "Do you like online polls?" And only have one option, "Yes".

poll is not very goos it needs bifferent options

This is the worst poll ever.

I was until all of these laws started making things so difficult. So my answer right now is no.

If i am not mistaking, online poker has never been legal in the Netherlands but atm they aren't doing anything about it. And that makes me happy

Great Book? All 4 books in the trilogy are great. & 42 obviously.


Didn't bother responding because of the way to general nature of the question. Will check future posts & respond when so moved. Nothing personal, not trying to discourage you from posting.

yes it seems fair and i do win my share of games
