This pretty much set the pace for me at the table. Pocket 99 raised UTG, only one overcard which is a Q, of course one of the villians has one. AQ, nothing, AJ, nothing. I finally win a medium sized pot with AKs when my TPTK holds up. This is not to say the players were difficult, they were very terrible and very nice people. I was just getting cold decked mercilessly. Like flopping top two pair on an A83 board and the BB having 33 when he didn't look at his hand until I bet the flop.

LOL, standard. I have dropped $400 at Foxwoods recently having terrific hands and constantly getting killed on the river with some wild-a$$ runner runner.

But when the deck is not too brutal, these tables are a goldmine. Just adjust to some people playing all kinds of crap.

Plus, the power of observation in live play is HUGE!
I definitely prefer live to online!

Second the motion to pussify people who are afraid to play live.
