I'm the first to comment but I have nothing to say :(
But I do hope to get some good references from here, 'cuz I like Poker and not enough of my IRL friends are willing to play.

www.partypoker.com

shadowfire was chasing me for a game and I recommended that site.  Sure enough, my account was still there after 4 years of absence and still had credit  :'(

Its a fairly serious site.  I'd be interested to know of more simple ones.  I think Myspace and Facebook have some.

I guess you don't have to worry about "poker face".

That's the reason I don't like online poker, it takes too much of the game away. Interacting with other players, such as reading their body language, is impossible.

I suppose it's good for beginners to get a grasp on how things work, and how to create a style of play. But removing the human element changes the overall game, for the worse, in my opinion.
