<< online poker games should only be for fun in my opinion.
simply cos it takes have the skill away from the game. you can't read your opponents in any way... >>

I have to disagree with this. Poker is all about betting. The biggest skill you need to use is figuring out a persons betting pattern. "Tells" are overrated

<< so all its good for is practice with the cards or maybe learning other versions of the game.... although this too is overated as it's self learning through a very limited experience....>>

This is wrong. Back before the internet, players had to drive to a casino (sometimes hours away) or play in a home game to get table experience. Now, full-time internet players can log up to 4,000 table hours a year playing full-time. The learning curve is much shorter these days (measured in time). Years ago, professional poker players HAD to live in Las Vegas or you didn't work

<< as far as money goes, forget it most if not all games are based through miscellanous countries with various different banking laws..

i don't see what affect this has on me. I go through Neteller and it isnt a bank.

<< so even if you win the credit card transfers will take a hefty bite anyway sometimes 5% or more >>

anyone not using Neteller isnt using his brain. I've done hundreds of tansfers and they were all free
