As for the online Poker, my attitude are the same as most of people: keep it ignored because of the simple reason that I don't believe it. I think it is just a kind of gambling.It is commonly considered that one will surely lose out because there is a problem of probability which is better for the boss of gambling party than for the gamesters. It is for this profitble probability of 0.5%-5%, the gambling party boss can make substantive profit.
However, when I heard that many of my friends succeeded in the Poker rooms online and lots of famous Poker rooms appeared online, I made my decision that I will investigate such things by myself.
