comfortable at home drinking something, eating something, talking to my friends online, listening to my favorite songs out loud and cheering up all good hands, multitabling ... these are some things I like

Ease of access. I can click an App and within a minute or so be in a game. I don't have live games close to me.

Maybe the best thing about online poker is to be able to do some multitasks, even if it is playing more than one tournament at the same time.

You and your face can...

I like online poker because you can't see my face and me in general. I can sit in any form and no one will see me, and if we talk about the game, then no one will recognize my emotions, in real poker I would be punctured ...:eek::rolleyes:

I am happy for online poker since the casino i play at is closed as many others are. There are many things i love and many things i dont like but i do enjoy playing mid stakes with out leaving my home and Micro stakes when im drunk. LOL! Lots of poker to be played
There is nothing better than playing online poker, to tell you about the advantages everyone knows, as for me, it is the comfort of my home, everything is close to me: the fridge, the bathroom, the sofa for rest times, ... and whenever you want action there are people playing everywhere; What more could you ask for from the comfort of home.:hahaha::rolleyes:

I like online poker because of the convenience and flexibility to play when I want.

Like most others here I like the convenience. I live in a state where I had 3 casinos within a 90 minute drive. Over the past few years, two of them closed their poker rooms. The remaining one is the farthest away. Without online poker I'd be playing very little poker - actually none with Covid out there.

I only get a good session in every one to two weeks. But when I do it's thousands of hands. The ability to this play volume is amazing. It's a blissful scratch of my poker itch.

I started playing online, because I won't be comfortable playing live. Plus, it helps me build my bankroll and then hit the casinos for tourneys. And the whole covid-19 started. Let's see how long this continues, and continue playing online until its safe.

Multitabling first of all. And traffic too. You can play any daily time online.

I love how convenient it is and how many hands per hour I can see while playing. I can play at all hours and never leave my house to try and build up a bankroll.

Online poker..

To be honest, I really like the freerolls. I'm not a good player, but once in a while I get lucky and win a couple of cents\pennies.

Other people play C.O.D and other types o online games, I play poker online,

I love that I can be comfortable and don't have to travel. I also love that I can see the size of chip stacks at my table easily without having to ask people how much they are playing with,

The money, booze and women, obvs...

I'm incredibly giggly and got told a lot when I was younger I should never play poker. So it put me off, despite liking card games (and poker being one of the few popular ones you can actually learn about). So online poker was always appealing for boredom's value. Now I'm an adrift degenerate who needs a pastime and (probably, hopefully?) the intellect to do it.

I'm also learning Java at the moment and it's a long slog. Might try comedy instead...

being relaxed more at home or your favourite place i guess.. although your reactions are to yourself not in front your opponent live like sweating or raging.
but still think online poker is programmed.. i don't know why o have this thought that when the house wants to make you lose you will lose.. hehe (THE HOUSE ALWAYS WINS)

Rigged??? I think they set the program for two reasons.
Hear me out...

One... Set to equalize players. never to many big runaways in tournaments?

Two... hands dealt to players based on computer rating?


Better score players get fewer starting hands in position?

Three … Big hands frequently loose to a short stack all in... ??

discuss amongst yourselves... :eek::stupido3::motz::D:eek::):(:confused:


all of them can be done easily with A.I. and machine learning, now that poekr rooms do this? some of them, the shadyones, sure they do, the bigger ones are regulated by 3rd party companies that certifies that all the RNG are in fact random and no behavior related

I like playing online, better then live. Cause it is from the comfort , of my own home. Also have a great selection , of music I listen too. The main thing is not , having players complain about calls different players make. Plus I don't need to spend , any money on gas and food. Fridge is full of all I need.

The only thing I like about online poker is the ability to stay at home and play on your favorite couch

Please stop polluting the threads on CC with your 'rigged theory nonsense'. There are threads set aside for that stuff... so why are you bringing it regularly to other threads?

My helpful comment to you (& on track for this thread).... there are soooo many opportunities to improve one's poker game with online poker & the information available on the internet.

Online poker also affords anyone the chance at becoming a regularly winning player and to even earn a living from it. It also makes the game of poker available to MANY people who love playing the game as a source of entertainment.
