honestly I haven't had a chance to play live, I really want to get to play, but the buy-ins in these types of tournaments are too big for my pocket:)

both have their charm and their advantages, online it is easier to pay big pots while live you can better study the reactions of the players

I prefer live poker because if I am playing live, I am on vacation and enjoy playing poker just for the entertainment value.

For the sake of variety, I would play a couple of times live, but still I prefer to play online, as here I can have a more varied session.

The game is not over the Internet more interesting on the human side, but it is very slow. To make money in poker for a simple regular, playing online is more suitable.

Yeah, you got to keep within your bankroll, 1/100 buy ins.

But are you enjoying the live, or focused? Reading the live game and playing accordingly?

Yeah true. I found the same. I’ve made more playing online than I’ve done live. But there’s more excitement and enjoyment of playing live.
If only the bankroll can permit To playing bigger live events, we’d make a lot more live. [emoji16]

I only play online, because for me it is the most convenient option. I play poker at home in the evenings after work.

live

Live is boring but more profitable for me. More tells for sure. Online feels more pressure by constantly having quality hands run into quality hands. I like them both just differently.

I don't have the opportunity to play live poker, but I would really like to try! I mainly play online, but I also play online when I have the time! I hope that someday I will have the opportunity to play poker live!

Live is more realistic, tangible. You can use all your senses to create advantage. Big disadvantage it is too slow.
Online is much faster and have its charm too.

Bottom line: i prefer both, for different reasons.

I only play online because I don't actually have the opportunity to play live. Although in my opinion, the live game is more interesting.

Cash Games: Live, because I can "hit and Run".
Tournaments: Online, because I can play it cheaper, mainly freerolls.

I only play online right now, because it's easier if you have just some time to spend and it easier available.
