this shit happened to me again. I raised over 8 times the blinds with AA, and fucking QT calls me and hits a fucking flush. I feel like there is no reason why I should continue to play online if people play lose and wet all the time. Ugggggggggggg, but I can't stop playing online, and yet I always get so mad - I'm in a lose lose situation, lol.
I like QT, but I don't understand how someone could call a raise that high with it, and then call an all in hoping to hit a flush...omg...I don't think I play tight - but I'm seriously starting to wonder how the pros last online.

Also, why do people say nice hand to hands that are not nice. I hate reading nice hand that's directed at 75 that just busted a set, wtf? That's not a nice hand, that's a nice suck out.

Its just politeness nothing to be upset about. If you ask me we could use allot more of that online in general.

I don't know. I guess I'm just used to playing live games where people talk a lot of trash, and call people names.

Maybe variance just catches up quicker online and you reach your expected return which is negative.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!!! Spot on!
A comment on the "nh" thing. You want to encourage them to continue playing badly.
EDIT - the bolded bit made me lol

Sounds like you play with friends or people you know well. You can do that online to, just make some friends and start a pokergroup who play together.
One thing to keep in mind with online poker is that people are from all around the world and have different customs, backgrounds etc.

Yes, I play with a league, and it's mostly the same people that I know.

Yeah, online poker is filled with donkeys and fishes that might suck out on you once or twice, but if you play a solid game you'll be making money in the long run. It took me about losing $300 to figure out how to win online playing 25NL but now my online bankroll is around $1100. Just pay your dues and play better poker.
