Inspired by this awesome B&M thread: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/27...common-897698/

1. You've reset the hotkeys on tableninja because your old hotkeys don't work after so much pressing.

2. Your wife/girlfriend has never played poker, but she uses terms like "EV" "PFR" and "3 bet" correctly.

3. You've turned down a juicy home game because you haven't gotten your rakeback quota for the month.

4. Over 50% of your clothing has a fulltilt/pokerstars/whoever logo on them.

5. You have friends that you've known over two years, and you consider them good friends, but have no idea what their real names are.

6. You spend as much time looking at your HEM/PT3 as you do actually playing cards.

7. You prefer online to casino poker because the casino has a totally unreasonable policy about wearing pants.

8.

10.

Fill in the blanks!

You spend more time caclulating the best place for bonus/rb than you do playing.

You want to kill anyone who short stacks.

You belive sites should be designing the games to funnel the money into your pockets as quick as possible.

You have chat turned off.

- read the B&M thread more for the stories than for strategies

- 30-40% of the time you play poker is done at work (but playing poker is not your job)
