If I had to choose only one format & it could be done then the only way is live poker. Just have to play online because of constraints to play live poker. Its not "poker" if its not live. Just like playing basketball online & live, it just isn't genuine & authentic! U won't know if u just play online.

Maybe it's because I'm getting older, but (like other members said in previous posts about live poker) I've also learned to appreciate more and more the social part of the game :cool: , so if it's a year with only one format - I'm definitely going for live poker - I especially can't miss my pretty much weekly fun home games with my friends :)

PS. I'm also trying my best not to stay indoors and/or on any type of device 'all the time' (mobile/PC/TV...), so maybe an 1 year break from online poker might not be a bad idea lol

If I could only play one format for the rest of next year, I'd pick MTTs. I enjoy the challenge, every tournament feels different, and one deep run can make your whole week. Cash games are great too, but tournaments keep me coming back because there's always that chance of a big finish.

I'd go with online poker. More volume, more flexibility, and more opportunities to improve. I enjoy live poker too, but online would be my choice for the next 12 months. ♠️

I cannot play live poker , my bankroll doesn't allow me to do so. So I don't think of playing live , not even imagining about it . Most probably I won't play ever live poker .

I'd definitely choose to play a live tournament. I've never played live before, and unfortunately, where I live, I probably won't ever get the chance to.

Online is the format that appeals to me the most. Where else can you always play hungry tables.

I'd go for live game. You get to see your actual opponent, get a better read on their tells, and engage in real life.

Online, due to the inflexibility of live poker and costs getting to destinations. Much easier to fit online poker around schedules although I think I prefer live.

Online, in my country is difficult to play live poker.
