1. Too addicting for a college kid with little to no money to be even thinking about.
2. More importantly those sites are completely unregulated. You have absolutely no idea who your playing, or if they are cheating. They actually did a whole piece on 60 Minutes about the problems these online poker sites have experienced because of their lack of regulation. How do I know the person I'm playing against is actually skilled, or is merely shooting fish in a barrel? The answer is you don't.
lol yeah, playing poker for free is kinda pointless, but if u enjoy then sweet.
I have been playing on pokerstars. I have never deposited anything on there, but a friend of mine did send me 1 dollar on the site. I then played in a 20 cent tourney and finished third and won like 20 bucks. So basically I am playing with free money.
