-Buying chips with cash is much less hassle than transfering funds online

-just about everything said so far

-pausing your chip stacking to check hole cards

-resuming stacking chips

-never, ever having to deal with someone typing 'ty' in chat afte making an awful play and sucking out

-people tend to feel too much guilt, live, to hit-and-run after a big suckout, so you can get the chips back more often

-people sometimes believe you when you smile and say "nice hand" while you are thinking, "Oh, good, you won a pot. Stay, play longer. Rebuy a fourth time; you're having fun. See, you're a winner. Isn't stacking chips fun?"

The total avoidance of the min buy-in, short stacking hit-and-run monkeys.

Story?

I love playing a hand really well and dragging a huge pot all while getting berated ferociously by the donk who lost. Then looking at the one other guy at the table who has any idea how to play poker and just giving each other that look like "dear god i love this game".

Also i love when you make a huge value bet on the river and the guy looks so pissed that you know hes going to call with a far inferior hand. I love those 15-20 seconds you have before he calls but after you now hes going to.

Showing the one meaningless card after your villian just folded to your bet.
