I discovered online poker over the weekend and spent 40 hours playing Texas Holdem with what I think were college students from around the world. It is cheaper than SP's.
I played on Pokerroom.com. Does anybody have any advice on where and how to play?

Party Poker.com has too many players IMHO, especially if you're not playing for real money.
I have logged on and every single table has had 8 or 9 players WAITING.

WWW.poker.com is a little less populated.....basically exact same set-up as partypoker.

So who wants to play???:)

partypoker is the largest site with lots of action, that is, chasers. If you're a rock, it could get alittle frustrating. I prefer paradise, not as many tables but you get a nice mix of rocks, cannons, chasers and calling stations.

yes it is! but 9 out of 10 players I am at a table with are from the states lol. Maybe if we re-name Texas hold'em to Ontario hold'em more Canadians would sign up haha.

KK is an awesome player on there :)

I like Party Poker. You can go in tournaments for as low as $6 and still win $30. Or, you can play for fun. I'm sure that there are other great sites out there though......

Spyware?

Are these safe downloads? Any spyware? or keyloggers? has anybody run a spybot clean-up after a download and found anything? or has anybody even tried?

I'd like to play, but I just got my computer all cleaned up...

Oddly enough I discovered pacificpoker.com on Sunday and have logged about 20 hours since then playing.

I was in Vegas for Thanksgiving weekend and Texas Hold Em is by far the most popular game in every casino.

So far so good online, maybe I will quit my job and play online poker full time! ;)

there's too much money in the online poker to worry about revenue from spyware. :) Generally they're 100% clean.

Partypoker.com is pretty good.
