Online for tournaments because I can play a lot of them at the same time.For me, online is better in terms of hourly pay and convenience. In person is better for pleasure.It's more fun in person, there's more communication, and there are a lot more recreational players.

I think that online poker is more profitable, at least for me. This is due to my location, in the Caribbean. There are very few live homegames / ring tables that I have the bankroll to keep playing. Online, I can play freerolls and micro stakes with no fear of going broke. I have also made withdrawals from online sites and my live winnings are not close to my online bankroll.
I suppose those people who live in states with many huge poker games and high roller stakes may beg to differ. Other players, who are very good at reading people, may also lean toward live poker since they have an edge. However, online poker sites are the best place to play for me!

It depends on your bankroll. When you play online, you don't know most of them unless you're a regular on a small App, but keep in mind that players are much more aggressive in person, the number of bluffs increases and they'll also be able to predict you a little more, so as a recommendation you shouldn't have a small gaming range, I'm doing better at cash games in person lately. But I play with the same ones online and I'm doing just fine. Just remember that your range of playable hands varies from place to place and the number of hands played in online VPIP should be lower than in person.

Online poker is more profitable for several reasons. You can play multiple MTTs at the same time — you can have 15 tournaments running simultaneously. In live poker, the most you can play is one tournament at a time, so the difference is enormous. You’re able to put in real volume. The secret to poker is studying and playing a huge amount of volume, and to do that, it has to be online. That’s why online poker is much more profitable than live poker.
The only exception is if you are extremely good — one of the best in the world — and able to achieve an enormous ROI in live poker, winning millions of dollars. But that’s one in a million; very few people can do that. So, for most players, online poker is much easier and much more profitable.

Live poker means more money to play and less money to win! In contrast, online poker brings together 3,000 people in an online casino, and the prize can be much bigger and the buy-in smaller, while a real casino only has 300 people.

Well, the biggest guarantees are in live poker tournaments. You can see the cards being dealt and it's a more regulated environment. I guess I will occasionally have doubts about the fairness of online poker. However, in those tournaments with big guarantees the payout is very top heavy and getting to those places is very difficult. So many coin flips that you could lose just to get there.

I think it depends on the type of player you are and weather you feel comfortable playing live while for example your family's at home far away. Or if you really need to see the people on the table live in front of you to be able to read and feel the situation properly despite of your family waiting for you at home. Weather you need the fame or not. Nowadays I think it is possible to win just as much money online as offline. Everyone has to decide for themselfs.
