I think that online poker should stay as constant with live poker as possible. I know there are a lot of areas in which it is impossible to have the two be equal (multitabling, etc), but this follows no logic to me. Can Phil Ivey go into a Vegas casino and tell the cage, "I don't want to play as me today." Likewise, I can't go into the same casino and say, "Today, I want to be Phil Ivey..." So, why do it online?

In live poker you can't instantly access a database of thousands of hands (or 10s of thousands of hands if datamining is available), already sorted into percentages and displayed neatly beside each player either......

So why do it online?

Edit to add:
Forgot I was in the MTT section...
For MTTs I like the idea of keeping the same screenname(that everyone can see), although you can still build up a decent sized database even in just 1 tournament if you play with the same people long enough... hmmmmm.

As for Cash games... Not at all. Kill the Hudbots, open up the game.
