[b]live play is best[/b]

I personally prefer live cash games and tourneys as opposed to online. Reasons for this is you can pick up more of the psychological aspects of the game when you are playing live. There are things your mind will subconsciously do which are tells that give info away about the cards you are holding. How do you think Daniel Negranu is so good at telling what 2 cards people have, this is do to him being able to read your body language. There is so much more info to pick up on playing live poker and you can use this to your advantage in the bigger pots you play as well as picking when to achieve a well timed bluff.

While online poker there are some tells such as timing tells and bet sizing tells, these tells are not as effective because some people will bet big when they are bluffing and when they have the stone cold nuts. Online poker is still fun but I have a hard time picking up on when people have strong hands or when they have weak hands.

In live poker when I'm playing with weak players sometimes I can tell them exactly what to cards they are holding just by the way they are acting or what there body language is showing. Also I am 21 years old so when I play live no one gives me credit for a real hand if I haven't played with them before. They think I'm just another young gun blasting away at pots trying to steal and this pays off big when I have a real hand. This is why I like live play better.
