Stud (variations), Badugi, 5 Card draw, 2-7 triple draw, 2-7 Single draw, omaha 8.

That should keep you occupied.

Manaics maniacs maniacs - sounds easy but they always (seem to) hit their hand and hit it even harder when you maniac back at them.
HU NLHE:

Definitely can never get a game but when you can the players suck, at least at lower levels.
6max NLHE:
Nitfest

9-10max NLHE:
....Wouldn't this be more of a Nitfest?

PLO 6max:
To easy to go -100BI in EV

HU PLO:
As above but 200BI

Rush Poker:

Oh God, all the rake I'm missing out on. F***ing f***. Please pokerstars come up with variation that will give us quick hands without multitabling. F***.

SNG's:
People collude without even knowing it
But they also play against their own best interests helping you out.
DON's:
Pople collude knowing it but it's impossible to catch them/prove anything

MTT's:
You fold for 2hours. Then got it in with AA against random crap against a donk then you flip for the rest of the tourney against pushbots.
I prefer to make a terrible push 2/3 of the way in and never suck-out on the caller who was just begging me to make that terrible push.

What to play these days
FIVE CARD DRAW

There's way more $$$ to be made in PLO. You need to learn how to play the game and you won't go -100BI

That's why big name players play PLO nowadays because its not a massive nitfest and you can get away with playing 30% to even 60% of your hands depending on how good you are and how well you know how to play position and postflop poker in PLO. The game is more degen I agree but it definitely goes ahead of NLHE since that has become a nitfest where you only win in setup situations or you lose in those same situations.

sounds like you dont like online poker, ive never sat with a bot in a casino, its sounds like your the nit, playing an mtt for 2 hours and only waiting for aces. doesnt a nit and a bot have similarities? yous basically saying that you are a bot, just not a good one

Damn, I intended the topic to be funny and hoped people would rant about various (preferably theirs) poker games. My sense of humor is not compatible with 2p2 anymore

Amazing. You don't know anything about my results. NVG logic ?

Again, I didn't say anything about how I play and if I like online poker. How bad can you be at thinking ?

all your complaints are completely valid, and I think it's pretty likely now that the community is aware of these flaws, that most if not all forms of poker will slowly descend into obscurity.

Except that you seem to think a -200 BI swing in HU-PLO is standard? :P

I think he meant running 100 and 200 bi below EV, not losing that much in EV.
