[B]How many people have noticed that online poker has a major difference from live poker in their chip denominations?
What I'm talking bout is how online you can make bets like $679,  $2,239.48, etc. But, when you play live you can only make bets that the  chips in front of you can possibly make.
And live tourneys don't have $1 chips or 1 cent chips lol.
And then as the blinds go up, live tourneys will take away the smaller  chips and use larger chips that are just small enough to mke a small  blind.
For example once the blinds go to $100/200 the $25 chips will be removed. SO your bets would have to be in increments of $100.
Now I know some ring games are $1/$2 and you would have $1 chips there,  but you wouldn't see someone buying into a ring table with $21.79. It  would be $21 or $22.
So I would like to open a opinion discusion please. So here goes...

Question: Do you think online poker bets should be more realistic like  brick and mortar casinos or do you think the online way is a new and  better option?

Question: Do you think this helps people prepare for real world tournaments negatively, positively or has no affect?

Please share your opinions and this isn't about anyone being right or  wrong because something that is good for one person's playing style  isn't necessarily good for another's.
Good luck on the felts and thanks for reading and hopefully contributing to the discussion.
