All of these answers are correct. I drive 40+ minutes to play in games that resemble online. I even play up to 20/40 live and mostly 2/4 online. (The 20/40 last weekend played like 4/8, just with red chips) At the local casino worth going to, I hear, "I work for a living, not play poker" The casino offers free sandwhiches, soup, and self serve drinks. Hell I go for dinner and leave with a few dollars in my pocket.

The bottom line is that it is just like blackjack and craps to them. They are suppose to loose and the eventually do.
