Re:Any good books i should read ?
well if it weren't for the few books i read my game would have never improved so much so they did help me to understand u know pot odds and how many outs i have so much better. i wasnt good at that at all i played cards for a few years now but online i only started a few months ago...this site even helps alot i ve read alot of the strategy they have here as well

Re:Rush poker ....
see i actually do well in ring games and i like to play alot more SNGs then anything i just feel like when i play rush im unlucky. i had AA once , guy had KK and he catches the king on the river i mean thats luck of the cards but even then i guess i need to be a little more patient in rush poker .when i play ring games i watch everything everybody does as far as how much they raise with what hands they show and i guess its just easier because of my reads on them with rush i cant see every hand that they play

Re:POKERSTARS ''DOOM SWITCH'' ?
i feel like i hear the same thing on fulltilt lol but idk i think people look for excuses obviously in online poker u see more hands in quicker time so u just tend to see it more often then others i mean ive played live games and had a horrible run for like 3 hours in a cash game lol so i dk i try to have faith that no big major online gambling site is gonna try to rig there games and risk there credibility imo
