Is Live Poker Easier Than Online?

vitalii029 · Jun 28, 2017

don't even know but my opinion is that online poker is pure luck and not a lot of professionalism

They are both a challenge journey with a mixed of players. difference is that live you get to see all your players and behaviors.

Live poker is easier,online poker is just a good luck

At live poker you spend a half day and more. And you can play a quick game over internet for 1/2 hour.

Shuler21 · Jul 10, 2017

Easier is Internet poker. He is fast, and you can bluff easy than leave.

Two6JJ · Jul 10, 2017

The live player pool, in general, tends to be much softer than online but just as online table selection is very important.

I think live poker is better.You gain money fast (no banks,waiting time etc).You can also see reactions of people ,if they are nervous ...But its not a good value if you win .

Hoztil3 · Jul 11, 2017

I think you can manage your money easier on a live table, plus its more enjoyable to play with people that you can see.

If you are good at giving less and getting more information at live poker, then it is far better, otherwise online should be better.

online poker is a complete joke!

At the Low Stakes for sure. Being able to get physical reads, watching the play, and physical tells of players is 20x easier then reading a HUD if you ask me. Playing Live in a $50 MTT tournament is significantly less stressful them playing 10NL. that's just my opinion though.

gofish · Jul 27, 2017

Live is better, maybe not easier, because you rarely ever get donks. Why? Because nobody wants to embarrass themselves in front of others with really bad play. Drunk people are the exception here.

dominiq · Jul 27, 2017

I think it depends on the person. If someone is a good observer and has a 'poker face' then easier for him is to play live, because online he cannot take advantage of it.
And for example I suppose that if I had played live then for all it would be easy to say if I have a good card or if I'm bluffing.

ScottieDuncan · Jul 27, 2017

Live is definitely more interesting and intense. Generally don't have the donks in live poker either.

depends on the player and the game

Just looking for opinions

I found the first few live games intimidating . More just nerves than anything else . After I settled in I found it more conventional than online . I played home games as a young guy then stopped playing till online became popular .After a few years of online I tried casino poker .There are a lot less bingo players live and less donks on a whole which isn't to say there isn't bad players just not as many outright idiots calling all in w 2 K suited.So if you can get the nerves under control it can be much easier to read than online thus more profitable .Stakes matter as well if you get into a $1-$2 nl compared to a $5 - $10 it is totally different and like online rebuy tourneys bring out a lot more aggression than freeze outs . On a whole I prefer live for social aspect of the game and I prefer online for availability of games . Which is easier depends on what type of person / player you are and what stakes you play at. Also if you multi table online well live you are only playing one table so easier to get to know players actions instead of just going by bet size and time which lots fake to give you bad read there are many other little things you can pick up on live

For nothing, it is much more complicated because it is more difficult to read the rival

effece · Jul 28, 2017

think it's harder to play live, there you should not prove anything, staying indoors, you should read your rivals very well and know each movement, instead you can scream, laugh, insult without measuring anything that you do, nothing will betray you , So you play more free

vov4ik · Jul 28, 2017

I did not play live poker at a club or in a casino so I do not know, I played pennies with my friends at home but I want to play an expensive live tournament once, I play a lot of online poker

Dmytro Lysyuk · Jul 28, 2017

I only play online poker, but I believe it's easier to play online poker than in live poker, because in online poker, players can not see your emotions during the game.

sryulaw · Jul 28, 2017

It changes a lot, because online you use mathematics a lot, and other resources like programs, and applications, to help you make decisions. Live, in real life, you many players who are not good with proficity, calculations, do not have much technique of game .. More they know if impose at the table, play live, and play with people and cards, play online is only Letters. Now when the player dominates the two worlds, then he gets on and out, and is always on ITM.

TeUnit · Jul 28, 2017

Think live is usually easier at the same buyin, but overall think you have much more information live to process.

fernandoprrt · Jul 28, 2017

Live is better, you can see the actions of opponents and if you are good enough, sure will win a lot $$$$$$$$$$$ against drunk, big ego people that thinks they are running good because of one hand.

discintildeath · Jul 28, 2017

It definitely depends on the type of person you are and how much experience you have being in casinos/home games. Being around a lot of other poker players can help you get into their heads and play the game in a way that gives you an advantage if you are socially prepared for that. If you are more introverted and like being at home and protected from view being on the internet will be easier for you and you may not show tells if you are a nervous type of person.

ovitoo · Jul 28, 2017

Imo, live poker is much easier. Lots of live players at 200nl who play like the 5 and 10nl online players. Obviously the variance is gonna be higher with all the fishes who just like to gamble. But finding awful players at 200nl online is very rare.

Samuel Kollapso · Jul 28, 2017

It depends on what you are looking for, there are people who can not handle the pressure of more people staring at you during a play, there are people who like to be the center of attention, particularly I find the live poker more interesting, we could say "more well played " ...
