Message: [QUOTE="HooDooKoo, post: 2501065, member: 102827"] The vast majority (almost 97%) of my 400K+ cash game hands at Bovada are at 200NL or 400NL, and I have zero hands under 50NL there. I only mention this because I doubt that play at 200NL and 400NL at Bovada are particularly soft by online standards --- but I could be wrong about that. 1. missjacki --- Thank you for your response(s). 2. While your online results currently far surpass your live results, you don't have a terribly meaningful sample in either case (which you acknowledged) --- especially live. The relatively small sample sizes make comparing your results at this point pretty meaningless. 3. The single biggest factor differentiating your live results and your online results is probably variance. Your live sample size is small enough that your negative ROI could very easily be a function of running bad in highly leveraged spots (in addition to the noise created by your six WSOP event bricks). For instance, I have finished out of the money in each of my last eight triple-up tournaments --- having been knocked out each time AIPF with aces. I can't really get my chips in any better than that, but I've run bad in highly leveraged spots so my results over that small sample have been bad. Your live results could be similar. 4. If you honestly believe that online players are less skilled than live players (on average) and that that explains your better results playing online, then why not stop playing live tournaments and just play online tournaments? Online play is more convenient, cheaper (no travel expenses), faster, and you can multi-table. The amount of money available in online tournaments is enormous, so you could easily just be an online tournament player and make good money (part-time). TJ --- I understand that you can use a HUD at Bovada. Having said that, due to the quick turnover at cash tables at Bovada, you rarely sit with players long enough that their stats become meaningful --- so the edge that HUDs provide at Bovada is largely negated. -HooDooKoo [/QUOTE]
