Online Poker is Boring

Masterquick · 02-04-2010, 04:49 PM

Live and in person is the only way to play.

I get bored with both formats.

Full Tilt started "Rush Poker" which is pretty ridiculous.

I played about a month ago online for the first time in about year..Folding hand after hand just doesn't peak my interest anymore. Then when you have the best hand and get beat on the river. It makes it even worse.

20hands and hour with live poker effectively makes it the single most boring gambling activity ever created even more than counting cards.

I guess the.... "horseplayers will find other ways to gamble"... suggestion, isnt what it once was...

They would have had to be horseplayers in the first place.

It's a new game play that sends you straight into the next hand after you fold. Constantly changing seats/tables within a large pool of players. It's well worth the time if one plays smaller srakes.

You know what's not boring? Getting crippled by a guy hitting runner-runner, followed by another guy knocking you out going runner-runner.

They say "That's poker."

I say **** **** ****!!!!! and ****!!!
