So far the only game I have been playing is NL Holdem. Wasn't really into playing poker at all until I met someone that plays it nearly 24/7. So to occupy my time now, I play on-line poker. I have really learned alot from him since January.

Freeze out means u pay a buyin and get a certain amount of chips and that's it. Rebuys consist of being able to buy back into the game when u run out of chips.
in Freezeout the money u pay at the start is the only time u can. and u can't rebuy more chips if ur broke. so if ur out of the game, ur out for good

i think most people in this forum, and any other forum for that matter, plays mostly NL.
if ur thinking of playing online poker more seriously, u should definitely look around the forum more for interesting articles ,and especially the bonuses.
don't sign up to lots of poker websites. chances are ur gonna miss out on lots of bonuses and promotional advantages.
best thing to do is wait for special occasions (like the WSOP) although that's abit far away now...
anyways, signing up through affiliates (like Blindbetpoker) is much advantageous.
and don't sign up to so many cuz u'll regret later on for having signed up to too many poker sites already (like me).
u'll miss special promotions like a New players freeroll for a million dollar (although that's abit exaggerated).
