how much data is relaying while playing poker?
Im planning to buy a yacht and sailing around the world with another poker player but we needs internet (satellite i assume?). Im having a hard time figuring this out, but it seems like there arent any reasonable unlimited access plans and the per/minute rates look like deal breakers too. They do offer per/data charges though which seems reasonable that is, assuming poker doesnt use much data. Anyone know how to figure out how much data im sending and recieving while playing x tables?

It's not the data rate when you are dealing with satellites, it's the latency of the connection. Your ping times with satellites will be really, really low which will make playing poker an exercise in frustration.
