i like that they have games even from 1c or freerolls , micro stakes from just 0.27$ or 0.55$ , less than a dollar , i dont believe you can find this in live casinos .

lol

just imagine . a casino that offers a tourney with 0.55$ buy in , imagine the poker room of this casino , where this game would take place , lol

In online poker I don't see any disadvantages and in live poker the advantage is that you observe your opponent, as any type of movement can identify a bluff!:unsure::unsure:

I think it's a significant advantage, especially for people who don't have much money to invest.

Online poker has numerous advantages, such as: not worrying about facial expression. However, there is one thing that happens that is a disadvantage... certain cards that are practically impossible to hit and beat.

I don't quite understand what you mean by certain cards that are impossible to obtain and/or beat.

Being able to only read your opponents by their bets is the worst and the faster action is the best 😂

I would say 'it is what it is' instead of 'it's the worst,' and 'fast action is the best' only if you also think fast. Time management can be important in decision-making.
