Re: Why online poker sucks.

About 4 years ago I could beat online poker, people learning hand rankings probably had more of an impact than the rake.

Very true, ed. I started back in 2001 (maybe 02) with a PokerRoom account. Poker wasn't all over television yet and people had no clue about what constituted a good starting hand - players were splashing around with anything. I spent most of that time playing 5/10 and 10/20 LimitLHE and I don't think things were ever better.
I'm a much better player now than I was back then but I don't make as much. I'm getting all misty eyed just thinking about it.
The OP's assertion rake is killing the .01/.02 game is awesome though.
