online or live?

I like both. They each have their advantages. When I was in Vegas recently, most of the people that sat at the table with me earned their linving playing poker. Let me tell you , that was a challenge! I enjoy the people at a live table and in Vegas they come from all over.

Playing on line is good for me because I can do it any time I want. I also don't have to converse with people if I'm not in the mood.

Either way. I love to play.

i almost only play online poker, because i live in a really small island and theres no culture of cars games at all, and the few casinos just offer blackjack and roulette and this kind of games.

im with you. i live half hour from nearest casino. if i could i would go there and play every day as opposed to online. but.....as has been said already you can play so many more hands a day online. i give credit to online poker for helping me develop my game but there is no substiture for playing a live game. controlling your heart rate, not shaking or sweating when u go the goods. starin your opponent down.....no 2 ways about it. live is for me. but online has its benefits.

live is the best and a better quality of player most of the time

Live is it. Online is just to kill time for me. When I go to the casinos to play I like to play 10-20 limit hold em. Online I play .25-.50 limit anything.

live is better, u get actually chips, not just numerical numbers on a tv screen

i like live even though online its easier to bluff

Both type of game has its own specifics. When you're playing online it's much more easier to bluff. On the other hand live game is generally more funny and cheery because you see your opponents. However, I play more online games because you can play all the time you want to.

playing live is better in my opinion, you can get a feel for how each player is playing a lot better, which can help you when you have to decide if someone is making a move on you or not. plus the chat at the tables, i really enjoy and believe i can influence people to make bad plays with my talk, its a big part of my game. and when i play online it seems like there are a ton of suck outs that occur, they give people hands that you would normally play for a lot of chips and then when the two go all in, the worst hand usually wins, it seems like they set people up sometimes, even though im sure thats not the case
