I play a lot of online microstakes MTT, but have never entered a live tournament and are a bit scared to do so as the buy in are usually above the stakes I play at.
How do player strength of live tournaments compare to online ones?

There are also different people in live poker, some play professionally, and some are just amateurs. That's why it's just as varied as it is online.

Are you thinking about playing tournaments in Norway? Most of the players here are amateurs, you have nothing to fear.

If you want to participate, forgot about money just play :) Consider buy-in as recreation spend.
