Online or Live - What do you prefer?

horizon12 · Mar 18, 2014

Long time playing online, try to play live, but did not like , not for me, the atmosphere is nice, but boring, hand are very slow , only one table

, need to watch the players their motion , this too I do not like. I choose online poker,,,

sryImPro · Mar 21, 2014

Online, defo....why?
1) i can express my feelings without making an idiot of myself in a crowd
2) i can do it anywhere, anytime

Haven't played live yet, waiting on warmer weather, but I imagine live will be better as I can see my opponent and try to get a read on them.

SimmPoker · Mar 28, 2014

Getting a read on your opponent is always a good thing!

knileh · Mar 28, 2014

Online's good, tells are lacking. I like the anxiety of live play.

vnonline · Mar 29, 2014

I play online poker only and love it much. I'm curious how live poker is.

I play online poker where I want, and when I want. That is really comfortable. And I play live poker only with my friends just or fun

Steves222 · Apr 10, 2014

Hmm tough one, Online of course!!! Just like anything else, cannot beat the comfort of your home. Its great not to have to smell the dude next to you who doesnt know what deodorant is.

that1guy2484 · Apr 12, 2014

Id have to say its rather up in the air, in my experience people seem to play better in person and not these "all in donkey fest" that we see in online poker rooms. But at the same time, there is way more action and money to be made online and not to mention convenient. :icon_sunn

I play online every day but playing live brings me much more fun. The reason is that i like to irritate with my opponents. I love the see fear in their eyes. It`s easy to read bluffs on live games as online games are just like u play with perfect pokerfaces.

NormanM · Apr 14, 2014

I play both, but prefer online. In live sometimes I can't hold my emotions. I think it's because of lack of experience.

rickypr18 · Apr 14, 2014

I prefer live, even though there aren't any casino's here in Puerto Rico that offer PLO and PLO8 (that I know of), and not really that many that offer Texas Hold 'Em. I did like playing with my neighbors when I was younger, but we don't play anymore, or communicate much.

DarkRoster33 · Apr 14, 2014

Online, because i just can't handle live poker professionally, 2 hours ok, 3 hour tournament, ok 5 - 6 hours and it gets aggressive and nasty and i look like i shit my pants from stress after few very very risky plays(every play seems risky then)

but in online i no one knows i am stressed out and i can smoke shit, drink shit, eat shit, be naked even and in my warm home ;P

armaghedonul · Apr 14, 2014

i like more live poker,you can see the players face and is more fun

rytciaq · Apr 14, 2014

Online, because there are more hands/hour

IamTheGrinch · Apr 27, 2014

Online accommodates my lifestyle. In the morning I, can look forward to getting comfortable in my favorite chair and sipping coffee while I log into the tournaments I plan to enter for the day. I make my best decisions with zero distractions, so a casino atmosphere isn't ideal. That said, on a night out with friends, I'll cut my working bankroll in half and head to commerce of the bike.

guutox · Apr 28, 2014

I don't like play live, you need stay ALL time focuses, while online you can do other things while play poker....and online you can play many tables.....

blitzenfish · Apr 28, 2014

I like live home games, which are usually 1/2. The closest casino is 3hrs away but the wife and I will do the comped room and meals, slots, blackjack, 1/2 for me, and maybe a MTT early evening.

However, for every hour that I get to play live I probably have 15-20 hours online. It is convenient and there for you when you want to play.

Faust · Apr 29, 2014

Depending on the importance of the stakes.

Playing live it's better to give false impressions to confuse the players. The live players i have played were with my friends, and there are some restrictions in the way you play. It's funny because you can't play with total freedom in enviroments like that. Considering that i prefer to play online, besides i play whenever i want.

ScottieDuncan · Apr 29, 2014

Live is great, but, 4.5 hrs away. Have to play online mostly, though.

Martinez · Apr 29, 2014

Iv'e been playing poker now for 7 years, most of it online. On the 5 times I decided to play live, I made the final table every time.
Either I'm better than I think I am or everyone else sucks (probably the latter)
Won more online, but there is a certain buzz about playing live so why not do both?.

jangalang37 · Apr 30, 2014

online for multi tables.

Live is a totally different game I prefer live poker for sure.

DonkeyH3AD · May 1, 2014

In online You play much more hands and of course Can't see opponent life tell
so definitley in life poker is better atmosphere when You are with people not with machine

Online or Live - What do you prefer?
