They don't? Since when?

Online games deal 2-4x faster than live ones, so that means mathematically you will experience more suckouts in a shorter period of time. Of course, you also have a greater earn potential since your skill over the field comes into play more frequently as well.

Yeah I've heard of business men who donk off hunderds of dollars not giving a shit about it. You guys that play higher stakes must love this kind of fish

I actually prefer a table full of loose/passive types for Omaha hi/lo. That is the easiest and most profitable for me.

Against the guys with deep pockets who just like action, it's a bit different. It's profitable, but the aggression levels are cranked way up, so you can experience some big swings in a game like that.
