VP opinions requested

#1

Anyone that plays poker knows how big internet poker is. A recent
Cardplayer article stated that on any given Saturday night, there are
more players playing online than in all of the poker rooms in Nevada
and California combined. Regardless of the current state of U.S. law,
players (including the big names) seem comfortable with the integrity
of the leading sites.

Staying with that theme, who would play VP online if the integrity of
a site was not a consideration? The only consideration would be the
paytables. Would you play 100% VP, but forego any comps? How about
below 100% games like 9/6 JoB, 8/5 Bonus etc; but with some sort of
cashback and/or comps tied into your local region?

I have played a little poker, bet a lot of football but those are a
parimutual type betting, very little reason to cheat as the house takes
a cut & the more the merrier.
I dont trust invisable dice or a non nv slot of any type because who
do you complain to if somthing is fishy about the casino?
I could be wrong.

p s I dont bet horses on line because the horse industry does not get a
cut as they do if you bet on or offtrack.

Subject to bankroll considerations (mathematical and
psychological), we play VP when and where we have
the highest EV/hour (including the value we place on
casino incentives).

If we thought online VP was fair (we don't), we would
include it in our VP universe and would play any situations
where the EV/hour was high enough to fit into the time we
allot to VP.

Tom,do you think live online poker is fair and honest? I've been debating playing poker online.
I had a bad experience with Click2Pay and never followed through.

I believe that the major online sites offer fair and
honest games. Collusion by unscrupulous players
undoubtedly happens, but doesn't bother me.
