Online poker is a very different animal. Some can do it and some can't. I hear the Mike Matusow is a very good cash gamer, but he threw his laptop in his swimming pool after 4 months of playing online a few years ago. He just came back to it because he's sponsored by FTP now. Don't know how he's doing.

But, the point is that not everyone can play online. I think you seriously need to have grown up a gamer of some sort to play well online right off the bat. I think it's the largest reason why so many people of my generation are succeeding online. We've spent the last 15-20 years of our lives playing video games and interactive computer games. Yeah, there was money involved, but when I started, I almost forgot about the money half an hour into it and was just trying to "beat the game."

Just my $0.02.
