3. As we speak...

Trying to keep from going on tilt from folks calling with garbage and hitting on the river.

Playing 7 stud and I've had trips cracked 4 times in the last hour by idiots drawing with crap.

9. You should know better than to play with idiots.

Even the pros don't play with them. Basic reason being that because they have no clue what they are doing they win.

Watch the episode of "Celebrity POker Showdown" on Bravo with Dule Hill in it. THe first show of Season 2 I think. He won by doing exactly what's happening to you again...and again...and again...

5. PartyPoker is notoriously full of "chasers"

People who make idiot huge calls on things like back-end flush draws and seemingly every time get them. They're only really a problem in the real money games.

A better place to play is UltimateBet or Poker Stars

UB has the best interface of them all (imho) and the best freeroll options (which is where I normally play considering my financial situation...)

6. for some reason

UB's interface has been really dragging on my PC. I dunno why.

Pokerroom.com has a lot of fun free tourneys, single tables, going all the time.

7. Pokerroom is what I had to use for a while

Then I found out Poker Stars is usable with WINE - a Windows "emulator" for Linux - so I started to use that.

If I ever need a "poker fix" I can just log on to Pokerroom and do a play money SNG. But I've noticed the quality of player on Poker Stars is incredible - for instance, I actually witnessed someone folding KK to AA preflop the other day.

8. wow

that's so unusual in play money.

I get sick of chasers, to be honest.

And I will never play for real money online. The possibilities for cheating are just too real for that.
