Do you prefer online or live poker?

I personally prefer online poker. I’ve never played live poker in a big casino or a live cash game, apart from small home games with friends. Online poker feels much more comfortable for me, since I can focus only on playing well without external distractions, and I also like being able to play multiple tables.

That said, I think live poker in a major tournament must be a unique and unforgettable experience. Even if I prefer online poker right now, playing a big live event is something I’d definitely like to experience in the future.
 
I prefer to play online, playing live I think it's very boring 🥱 I've never done it but when I play online I play on 8 or more tables, and I'm already used to playing like that.

Pessoalmente, prefiro o poker online. Nunca joguei poker ao vivo em um grande cassino ou em uma mesa de cash game, exceto por pequenas partidas caseiras com amigos. O poker online me parece muito mais confortável, já que posso me concentrar apenas em jogar bem, sem distrações externas, e também gosto de poder jogar em várias mesas simultaneamente.

Dito isso, acredito que jogar poker ao vivo em um grande torneio deve ser uma experiência única e inesquecível. Mesmo que eu prefira poker online agora, jogar um grande evento ao vivo é algo que definitivamente gostaria de vivenciar no futuro.

For the profit issue, I prefer online, because I earn more, but I prefer to play live, I think it's much more exciting!
 
I have always enjoyed live poker and played quite often at various poker clubs in my city. However, first due to the coronavirus pandemic and then due to the war, I shifted my focus to online poker. Nevertheless, I hope to play live poker again someday. 😕
 
I just play online now, have not played live since COVID. I enjoyed live but prefer online.🙂🙂🙂

I have always played online and to be honest, I can't complain about the returns and results.
But I'm in a good emotional, financial and knowledgeable time to go play poker in a casino. I have to face such a challenge and live the experience.
What do you prefer?
How was your first time at the casino?

Unfortunately, I never have enough time to play. I only play 1-2 days a week, and even then, not always. That's why I only play online. Online poker is fast and dynamic. Live poker is cool, but it takes a lot of time, which I simply don't have.
 
I love online and I think it's more profitable because of more tournaments.
 
I never play live poker, but I think in pros and cons

Online: Easy chips count and bet
Live: No vicious algorithm
 
In the past I played live maybe once a week, very small stakes — around $5 buy-ins. It was fun and more about the experience than the money. Then the card house closed, and after that I only played online. The next casino is about an hour away, so it’s not really practical for regular live sessions and now I play only online.
 
Live, it's sensational to feel the cards, play with the chips, see the players' reactions, and study each player.
 
I prefer playing online, in the comfort of my home, without fish constantly complaining,
no drunk players and no inflated egos talking in my ear. Not to mention that the volume online is waaaay higher.
 
Online couse you can play more tournaments and less variance, but live has its thing.
 
In my city, the legal casinos that exist are not for me. I don't have that much money. There are a few gambling halls that I could afford, but I have doubts about the integrity of the owners. So, in fact, I only play online, at home, on the most popular sites, such as 888, GG Poker, and ACR.
 
I prefer playing poker online. I find it more practical, I can play anytime, at different stakes, and I’m able to put in more volume without needing to travel.
 
I actually enjoy both, but for very different reasons.

Live poker has a completely different atmosphere. The social element, table dynamics, physical reads, and the overall experience make it more engaging in a different way.

If I had to choose purely for skill development, I’d probably say online. But for enjoyment and atmosphere, live poker is hard to beat.
 
I prefer virtual because you can play many games but real life poker is more fun because you can feel that you are actually playing
 
I would say I prefer live poker, because the adrenaline is on another level when playing live compared to online, but what I love from online is that it doesn't really require alot of of money to grind compared to live. Overall I'd prefer Live
 
I prefer online poker. The volume, pace, and ability to multi-table fit my style better, although live has its own strategic depth.
 
I like online poker more. You can play anytime, anywhere and how much you want. But live poker is more fun than online.
 
I liked live poker better, but unfortunately there aren't too many options in Hungary, so online poker remains.
 
For sure online poker is my favorite
I get bored just at 1 table in live poker
 
I prefer online poker because I can play from the comfort of my home and I can also open multiple screens at the same time, thus increasing my winnings.
