Default Benefits of playing online?

Playing online gets bashed in the media by government ,constantly repeating the negatives to the masses even though many of these same atrributes are shared by offline gambling establishments.

Benefits of playing at home:
1.You are spending more time with your family.
(Maybe now youre marriage doesnt fall apart,little Johnny doesnt take your gun to school or maybe little Susan isnt pregnant at 15 with twins ).
2.You arent out drinking and driving on the way home from the casino(saving lives lowering insurance)
3.Youre not wasting gas(saving oil for future generations,while lowering gas prices for yours).

others anyone?

Surf pron while you play! Just kidding.

The the thing I like is if you have jerk at the table you can right click and shut him up.

you dont have to tip the dealer.
you can play ten times as many hands in the same amount of time multitabling.

you can be in a game in 30 seconds.

multitudes of tables and sites to choose from.

can keep notes on players.

You don't have to listen to the guy who tells the same bad beat story to every new person who joins the table for 9 hours.
