I usually play live poker only with friends. Never been in a playing house... I'm playing online poker about 2 years, and now I'm interested in playing some live poker, real money as well.

Which type of poker, online or live, you think it's more profitable? Or you what are the most important differences to consider when we're playing one or another.

Depends on which do you play best

On either, I recomend MTTs as format of choice. Cash game can be profitable but hit a tournament win usually presents a higher ROI

I think it depends on what your more used to play.

I don't play live poker so I couldn't say which it's more profitable. It all depends on the player's preference.

But both can be profitable.

I've always played online, sometimes with some friends, but I've never been to a casino, maybe one day.

I prefer online poker for several reasons, the most important is that I can play more and live poker is not played much in my country

Online poker is definitelly quicker, don't have to wait for mixing cards and to get your hand however live poker could be much more interesting because you have contact with players. I never played live tournament poker. I think it would be a really interesting experience for me but on this day i choose online poker.

Even though I live close to the best poker house in the city where I live, I never played live, I went a few times to watch Pokerstars events, just to feel the atmosphere.
I believe that playing live is very different from online, I'm not saying about the game, but about the atmosphere, you have to face the player at the table at the time of a big hand, I don't know how my reaction would be, and live that counts a lot.
Online is more relaxed, you don't need to face the player, you don't need to count the chips, you always know how many chips you have in the pot, and other facilities.
I think I would get lost playing live.😁🤣

I see. Playing live sure is more difficult when we consider all this atmosphere factors.

Live and online have so little in common like there are almost two separate games :)
The rules are same, but resemblance stops there.
So, you play whatever you feel more comfortable and you like more

Many online players are not always successful in the game with real opponents. And vice versa. For those who are strong in the psychological aspects of the game, are a good physiognomist, can "read" an opponent by his gestures and involuntary movements - the absence of an object of observation in front of him is a significant disadvantage. However, in "live" poker you won't get far on psychology alone.On the contrary, for those who do not control their emotions well, do not know how to hide feelings, and pay for it with departures at offline tournaments, playing on the Internet is a great chance to realize themselves, feel confident, learn to “save face”, and then return for a live table to your offenders and punish them.If you have a computer and the Internet, you can play at any time, even during the day, even at night, while not depending on the usual partners who either work or sit with the children, or on the schedule of tournaments in any poker club.So there are far more pros than cons to online poker, and if you haven't started playing online yet, do it! But do not forget that everything is good in moderation.
