Is it even worth it???

[Black_Angler]

Hi all,

A little bit of advice...

I live in LA (in my mind, the poker capital of the world), and for years was a successful live game player up until about a year ago when the proverbial "outside circumstances" forced me out of the game for a while. Internet play was always intriguing to me but the threats of collusion always prevented me from risking serious money there. As I began to think about getting back into the game, my first thought was to re-build my bankroll online until I have one large enough to head back to my comfy 20-40 seat at the Commerce (mmmm...the smell of fish).

For many of you, who have countless hours invested in online play (and may not be living near a poker meca), it probably makes sense for you to continue to take the risks involved with the new world of online play. However, for somebody such as myself, do you think it is even worth the risk to get into online play or should I just build the bankroll through typical low limit casino games?

Thanks for any help.
