I would be interested in the names of the companies and the software you are refferring. From what I have seen the web site and e-mail notification services are to slow and the PC programs don't work (win-risk-free problems accessing server and freezes up PC) or are over priced

If you have $50,000 to start with in 20 sports-betting accounts, you can spend every waking hour at the computer and make $150 bucks a day if you're good.

$150 a day of risk free money doesn't sound so bad.

I would rather play 1-2NL and make 200 in a three or four hours.

If you are claiming you consistently make 50-66 dollars an hour playing 1-2NL you are only fooling yourself...Maybe if your playing >4 tables at once.
