It is nice to see a site with a real international mix of players. Sure, I could generalize about various groups of players by nationality, but that would be plain stupid (and dead wrong). I have played poker (real, face-to-face poker) in the United States, much of Europe, and Australia. I do notice differences in the game depending upon where I am, but they are subtle differences that really don't matter in the long run.
In short...if someone plays poker well, no matter where they are playing (or live), in the long run they will do well.
Bad strings of cards happen (and can be overcome). Bad players are "grown" and usually can't be changed.
