Live I have to wait hours sometimes to get a table and then the hands play really slow
I can play more hands on one hour than the times it takes to travel to casino and waiting for a table and then sit to play

Online you can find more variants of games (SnGs, tourneys), which dont exist in casino or poker clubs...
 
maybe because they have a lot of free time and extra money)))) and they decide to give them some room ))
 
Online allows you to play more tables and hands and therefore hopefully turning more profit

Hi, I'm a new player in the online poker. I play poker online because it's convenient, and I do not need to go to the casino. I can play on my bed, what is best for me. So I'm wondering why you guys are playing online poker?

casino needs money. without money there is no sense to go to the casino. and win without attachments. bed, I think, is not accidental. ))
 
This is the second time I get involved in online poker just because I have free time and a desire to play. To play cold and prudently, with great patience. I would definitely like to win more money, but to win a lot, you need more free money, and nerves too ... so far at micro rates, all the luck.

I play because is +EV... Live its just for fun, or by big hit.
 
Its super convenient, I can practice by playing very low stakes without fear of significant loss. I can track my statistics, and review my hands to learn from my errors. .. Also - no shoes required 😉
 
For me I love the speed of MTT and variety online. As a MTT player, live you have to travel, avoid pit games, and play one or two in entire day! I often play 3-4 at a time online, up to 15 a day sometimes! Money is still there to be made, in fact bigger prize pools online than live often! My only gripe is I wish we had more and better options, but i play BLackChip Poker as BlackChipBrian, nice to meet you all!
 
I get off on the battle with the RNG, I'm a glutton for punishment, I know that one day I will win a hand, the maths say so. 😉

My original reason is so I can practice for live... but from what I'm hearing it's nothing like live
 
Online is much easier for beeginner players such is myself, a lot of different games available, SNG tournaments. Good way to build up ur bankroll!
 
I play it most of my time to have fun 😀 Rather than play video games and i can make something out of it,even if i didn't won anything worth of mention 😀
 
Cheaper tournaments that allow you to play from the comfort of your own home. Availability as well, some people do not have the ability to play where they are located, or it takes an hour or much more to get to the casino tables.
 
because during the game I can open the fridge and eat.

Online poker is an opportunity to play at any time convenient for you, not to go anywhere, a very wide selection of tournaments and tables. New players all the time and they don’t know your playing style and your abilities.
