Anyone use Remote Desktop to play poker online?

This morning I tried to use remote desktop from my work computer to my home computer to play online poker, but the 30+ seconds lag make this impossble. I have DSL on both computers. Has anyone play online poker using remote desktop with DSL?

RD works well for me and the lag is minimal. As others have stated, disable the graphics options for better performance.

UltraVNC with the video hook driver is also pretty lag-free for me.

30 seconds?
Your Internet connection sucks. Big time.

There shouldn't be anything more than a seconds' worth of delay, as experienced on our work connection which only has 30kb/sec upload.
