Message: [QUOTE="Polytarp, post: 5136751, member: 312731"] From my (little) experience superficially both venues are the same depending upon the stakes and other small considerations. Online is more volatile because of the rapidity of the deal and action of the players. Regarding rules, some of the most sophisticated players are online and these are the "techno/numbers" players. Live cash games are better than live tournament games (again, stakes dependent) but you won't win life changing amounts playing cash games so you need to have a mix of both..and don't forget about being staked which is a kind of insurance. When it comes to rules it comes down to card probabilities and reading players. Online you need also to contend with server outages, power outages and equipment failures. I have experienced these during the worst possible times but you learn to dwell in your respective environment and survive accordingly. [/QUOTE]
