Do you prefer online or live poker?

anasslaaleg · Apr 5, 2026

There’s something special about the vibe of different places the quiet focus of a home game with friends, the buzz of a casino floor, or even a casual online table late at night. For me, it’s less about the location and more about the people and the energy at the table.

I only play poker online. I might like live poker, but I've never played live. And I don't plan on starting.

a casino is more fun but you can only play 1 table . if the cards aren't coming it can get quite boring .

Online all the way!

I'd love to play live poker, but currently, that's not an option for me in Ukraine. So, I'm playing online on WPT, PS, RS, 888, Pokerbet, and GGPoker.

Wow you're playing everywhere under the sun. You must be a grinder...

The best list personally for me.

I don’t like 888pokercause of their support team, they either respond for a week or never respond at all.

I would actually recommend playing in your region based online game. Instead of big company. Like 888 and GG. They might not have the luxury of deals of these big companies but it's better for newer players because there is less likely hood that you're gonna run into grinders and pros.

online because it's mroe accessible for me

Live poker in casinos is intimidating for me . I usually stick to the slot machines , and it hasn't gone well lately !

Magnacarta · Apr 8, 2026

Personally I prefer playing in person, but I also enjoy playing online. It depends more on what kind of poker you like to play (fast vs slow) and generally I find that there is a bigger variance in cards when I play online than irl (talking about better hands holding up etc).

online much serious for me!

Although I have never played live poker, I recommend that you try it if you have the chance, at least because of experience. Just don't risk it too much.

Remember that you probably started slowly with online poker, and that's how it worked for you. Apply the same approach.

Live poker is way better for the social vibe. Online feels like work sometimes, but live is where the real fun is. My first time in a casino my hands were shaking like crazy while I was trying to stack my chips, but I loved every second of it. You can't beat that physical atmosphere 🃏

I prefer live poker. Reading people is the main reason. But also the atmosphere of sitting on a table will never beat sitting on my couch playing online.

That said, my actual tables are 90% online 10% live these days.. The exact opposite of when i was younger. Perhaps the comfort of home is getting to me, but mainly i cant leave my dog alone. He is a rescue with abandonment anxiety... My neighbours would not be happy if i was away for late nights.

Gonzalez1234 · Jun 13, 2026

Of course, I love you alive, but you can only earn money online

frnandoh · Jun 13, 2026

I prefer games that doesn't long too much.

GarotoMaroto · Jun 13, 2026

Live definitely.
Online is okay, but I just can't trust this platforms 100%
I have reasonable math and just can't believe some bad beats or ''coolers'' haha LOL
God bless

Sschafell · Jun 13, 2026

definitely online

ne0npipe · Jun 13, 2026

Live poker is amazing, but at the moment, I only have online poker at my disposal. Once I move, I'll definitely participate in live tournaments.

MishkaZL · Jun 14, 2026

I play at home, I only play online.
I've been to the casino a few times, it was fun, but too noisy for me.

lwccasz · Jun 14, 2026

I only played poker in person with my friends, I've never been to a tournament in person, only online. I would very much like to play in person, but I still think I need to learn a little more before the face-to-face one.

Mwaki · Jun 16, 2026

Depends with my bankroll,

wushibala · Jun 16, 2026

I’ve never played live poker, but I’d really like to experience the thrill of playing at a real table someday.
