I quit, when they got rid of the cash games in the U.S. Well actually quit when I lost like $500 in one hand (luckily was having a pretty good night at the time), but when I came back they closed down the cash games. Always had trouble playing the non-pay games, seemed like not too many took it seriously.
I consider that (my bolded) a challenge. For me I just want to win and I don't care whether there is any money riding on it or not. Of course, from time to time I might call out someone playing recklessly just because it isn't real money. But usually I play legit. I've been playing 100 grand games for quite a while. I've had to buy chips only a few times in the last few years. When I get low I just downsize the buy in size of the table until I make it back. Got to say, I really don't like playing those really low stake games. But that's what makes me keep it together playing funny money, the desire to avoid low stake games.

I usually play live for actual $. I used to play online for real $ before Black Friday. I haven't played live in awhile, longer for online. I get bored really fast online and do stupid shit I would never do in a live game.
I played on PokerStars, Full Tilt, Party Poker and a few others. PokerStars was my favorite.
PokerStars has become worse. You can only play 6 person tables now, no full tables. Also the randomizer will now set you anywhere on the table, not necessarily center front. Really that is just a minor annoyance.
We three and maybe a few others here should play a game there some time just for bragging rights.

Start that thread.
I don't remember ever messing up a recipe I had on paper.... it's when I try to do things from memory that I forget half the stuff
Except for Bolo de Bolacha (biscuit cake) - Whateverist knows what I'm talking about! Super easy, no baking required!
Super easy and also very popular even with my wife's foodie friends. To ramp it up just a bit I shred an expresso bean dark chocolate bar over the top. Mmmm. Want to make one right now.
