Mostly played online... i sometimes think irl playing with friends that i give something away, not that i do but sometimes i think... what if he knows now when i put my chips in like this or that..
And online they cant see that besides maybe the size you put in?

So i rather play online games than live games... just afraid to give something away... even tho i think i wont ... haha

Live if with friends online otherwise. That said if I were a shark I'd want in person to read tells of terrible players. But yeah ... the boredom.

Playing mostly online, won´t mind a live game, but still if I´d chose between the two I´d play online as long as the platform is fair and credible.

Personally I only played online tournaments, I think it's easier and much faster to play online, live games take so much time. But the strategy side of the game is less important online, at a real table you can read or at least try to read your opoonent's gestures, face, emotions and behavior to get some informations about the actual game

I like live Tournaments, because you can see who your playing against, and try to pick up tells about your opponents, besides betting patterns like online has.

Live

Live totally. Seems there's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more bad beats online. Also I enjoy real life poker at real life tables much more than online. The only advantage to online for me is convenience. I can play it on the boat in my sweats lol.

I prefer live poker the most. I started playing live tournaments at the beginning and cash and then gradually switched to online poker. I like live tournaments because you see people in person, watch their emotions, behavior and many other factors. This is called psychology. Unfortunately, there is no such possibility in online poker. But in online poker there is software that allows you to keep statistics, and this facilitates the game.

I personally like online better because I can talk myself through it out loud and no one hears what I have that and casinos frown upon you coming to the table in nothing but a robe

the very atmosphere in live events does not replace online. but online you have more personal freedom and time for other things.

I ve never played a live event before. Although this idea might be tempting, i feel more secure in online tournaments and besides I find it more fast. I ve seen tens of thousands of hands in 7 years, but that doesn t make me a pro. I play at low stakes and only when i have enough time.

Sobre torneios

live tournaments, it's always more exciting, however, they are more comfortable online.

Live, unless the shuffler is rigged they are 100% legit! Online, who knows. Too many monster hands vs monster hands and 1 and 2 out suckouts online.

The down low on brick and mortar and sitting on the couch.

Love both live and online. I find online is much more easier to access, and much more comfortable. Live play is restricting in the sense you have to stay seated. I tend to love my freedom, but at the same time would love to play a decent sized payout tournament live. As for skills. They both have tells and bet sizing techniques to watch. Which can induce or repel a bet.

Play live tournament is much more interesting, but you know that playing every day in a live tournament is unrealistic, so you have to play virtually, toet online

I prefer online because I can play many tournaments simultaneously and with a wide variety of signup value, increasing my financial winnings faster. There is also the convenience of being at home.

Hi I new here. I prefer both. But online poker has more opponents, and has more events, also it's faster than my experiences in live torneys.

Live tournaments are preferable to me as they are more social and you can see what
is going on. There is no questioning the run of the cards, and you can look the opponents
in the face. The only thing I like about online tourneys is the availability and variety of
games, which is hundreds more than the tourneys in my area.

Online tournaments. Live tournaments take so long. When I played in a wsop event in 2009 I was playing from 1230 pm to 230am on day 1. There is nothing fun about that. Even though I cashed in the event I have never played another wsop event because it is so mentally and physically exhausting to sit there bored to death for so many hours. Online you can have the tv on and watch tv between hands or easily grab something to eat or drink. Go to the bathroom. Online 100% more enjoyable for me.
