I even trust online poker, but I certainly trust the live table game more because I'm seeing the cards in my opponents' hands and their way of playing.

I completely agree. If I had the chance, I would only play live. Pure game, no cheating, open fight, equal chances.
However, since there is no other solution, online poker remains.

Hello brother
Look, it may be that he agrees with you that it is much more beautiful to play live seeing the cards, opponents, strategies, etc.
Now if the reflection is because we trust more in live poker than in online poker, and if it refers to badbeats etc.
I show you this among many videos, in which you will realize that the plays in which the hands in online poker are very similar to live poker.
Even in live poker there are even worse badbeats for players than in online poker.


And when you see this badbeat by Jennifer Harman at the wsop 2005, this is where you realize that many times online poker is less harmful hahahaha

My regards, brother:giggle::giggle::giggle::giggle::giggle::giggle:

I prefer live poker because the essence of online poker is mainly ''Bad beats".

I think the odds are changed, they change the probabilities of the hands, to increase the bad bead, and so you keep playing tilted, betting and losing more. a theory.

Trust is something that needs to be earned. I trust PokerStars.

Not always, it depends on the room.
And even the big ones, I've already witnessed fraudulent situations.

I generally trust online poker until I have reason not to. Things like bots and multi entry cheaters tend to move me away from sites.

We have seen over the years that both can be exploited. In any aspect in life, when money is involved, there are people out there that will try to cheat to profit.

Playing poker online has several advantages over playing live, such as convenience and flexibility, a wider selection of games and stakes, accessibility to beginners, the ability to multi-table, and a more social experience. These factors make online poker a superior option...

In live poker there is also cheating, several times a group of people were caught doing a cheating scheme.

I kinda trust online poker... But an important aspect is taken out of the game, making it less interesting. I definately prefer live Poker too.

Well, whether we like it or not, we'll have to trust poker because the opposite can't happen in live poker, but you can see how players play and everything is on live screens so there's no cheating and in online poker I think they don't need to damage their credibility

I only play online. I have no reason not to trust the online game, as I have never had any problems with withdrawals. There were some delays during verification, but within acceptable limits.

Poker is such a game that you can expect anything, and the level of trust is the same everywhere.

I 100% trust the large established online poker rooms. I can not comment on the smaller rooms as I do not play in them. But for the large established places no problem at all with trust. I see no reason why they would rig the game in any way and risk losing their credibility and even possibly having criminal charges laid against them. This day and age with the technology we as humans have they would get caught one way or another.

Actually that brings up a question....... I may start a post about?!?!?!

I don't see any reason not to believe online poker on big poker sites like Poker Stars, GG, which have good security. Small sites have a high chance of being deceived by other players as well as offline games in unlicensed locations.
