also- as far as i know GaryStevenson and I are the only ones who actually enjoy playing live? Vanessa also and maybe Leon seemed to enjoy it. Interested to see if anyone else likes playing live.

it's better if we're the only good players in the game. let all the other 2+2ers stay in their rooms and play online

im pretty much online busto. i wrote this email to stars.

Dear PokerStars,

I've played over a million hands online, maybe only a hundred thousand or so on stars. Please review my hands since 2/9/2007. While I did tilt some, you'll see the same [censored] over and over - shortstacks hitting agianst me, everyone's draws hitting, my draws missing, me never having a set but losing when I do, me always getting two outered. ETC. EVER since I busted in the WCOOP main event this past summer (with AA, near the money, by a 5outer obviously - it must have been a $10k+ bad beat in terms of EV) I've come to realize that there is no [censored] way your site is legit. I beat PartyPoker for about $200,000, yet I can't beat the 2/4 games on Stars? 40 buyin downswing? [censored] ridiculous, please prove to me that you guys dont cheat. Thanks. Oh yeah, I ordered a DVD recorder in December and that [censored] has not arrived at my apartment yet. Please send it. Thanks.

Gary

VP, I think you're a good player, but you seem to have extreme difficulty handling your emotions at the table.

I know it can be difficult in the middle of a big downswing, but I've hit my biggest break even stretch ever, and you won't see me berating others at the table etc...

I'm much more emotionally stable about poker than I used to be, and I'm still 100% sure running bad is affecting my play in a major way.

What I'm getting to is that as upset as you seem to get over routine hands, (I actually made a nice, thought-out call vs you and you called me names) I really doubt that your temper/mindset isn't causing you to self destruct.
