Message: [QUOTE="caballojoe, post: 2585726, member: 131780"] For getting the big picture, you can't beat online poker. At a glance, you see your position (i.e. where the button is), every bet, every players' exact chip holdings, who has folded and who is in. Plus, depending on your settings, your blinds are automatically taken, there is a timer for each player, and an audible signal to remind you when time is running out. Hardly any distractions, and all the info you need at a glance. People can be very distracting, which is as it should be in live poker, because you have to devote a lot of your attention to sizing them up and looking for tells. And off in the distance, there is often the sound of slots and people cheering some big throw of the dice. I find it all distracting. [/QUOTE]
