silver, I play £10($20) rebuys in real life, play tight, and add-on, and maybe one rebuy, and thats exactly the same as when I play $1-$3 rebuys online, so in my opinion I'd say real life poker for me is between 10 times and 3 times what online is, does that make sense?
Also, bar play(I also play a £10 freezeout at my local bar now and again) is littered with drunks out for a good night out/poker game, so it can also be the equivalent to a freeroll online. Help that hopes your understanding of live versus online?
GL. What style are you live/online? Im Tag live, and anything from super Tag to super loose online.

Possibly newbies just looking to have a good time playing that easy looking game they saw on TV, and getting drunk at the same time.

best quote from my bar game 2 weeks ago, (some guy called a 10xBB all-in bet for a third of his stack), with J5sooooted, was, 'well, it is suited!', I knew he was kidding, but at the same time he meant it, lol(he lost the hand!) and busted out himself about 30 mins later, with some junk hand all-in!
Edinburgh?, you near Waverley?
