I dont classify the players by the country. Talking about European player i classify them being North European or Mediterranean (South Europeans). Thewre is a big difference of cultures and in my opinion that reflects too in the poker games. South Europeans usually tends to be more heartfull, touchy and expressive persons. Because we live mostly with the heart in our mouths we tend to acept hardly that we had a bad beat and we tilt more and faster. Nordics are different, theyr are cold , perfecionists and the adapt easier to the game.
This is my opinion so i acept that somebody thinks different.

First i want to say keep your eye on those from Ruasia. I understand from information that they play in groups to gain huge amounts of money on these sites. If you see a table more than 3 means you are near a group of Russians placed to work. They play against you and if they lose another one wins. This type of trick is new and is not banned because it is legal as long as they play the other IP. I am from Romania and i am always careful to this players. Playing poker for fun but for personal reasons that i made ​​a living to earn small amounts that i pay certain debts. The most important poker i've learned so far is to keep your calm and when you have control on a table do not forgive anything.

Hi guys!!
I think is a great mistake think in this way. If we think for example, yankis are all fish, and play vs all like if is true soon we will have a surprise.
And the worst of all are (in micro and low levels) Spanish like me and USA players. My bb/100 go down down down when they dissapear.
