I find it easier to make the right decisions live because i know how everyone plays, and if a new player comes i figure him out quite quickly, so live poker has been much more profitable for me
Def. live vs online. Online is much more convenient but you can't see how the other players acting in certain situations. The other thing I like about live vs online, all these people playing online have all the software for datamining, player profiling, odds calcs., table selection, etc. software that does alot of the work for them. Without the software, they would have a hard time playing in live. Not that I am saying people can't switch from online to live, but most of the work is done for them. Plus, I just like the lve atmosphere better anyway.
Posted by zsiz88: I like both of them. But I voted for online, because I play that usually. But in live I play with my friends so it is a good free time activity

Hi!!
Online. I was a live player, but since i play online poker i prefer it. Is more fast, you can play in more tables and, if you want, can put the chat off and no fish-talking all the time!!
rigged is a harsh word.. But i think that live is way better poker .I was told from an online support guy that the site is geared to new players as well as more experienced players..I was a little pissed that my aces got cracked for the fifteenth time in a row. Which happens way to often online. As well as first hands in tourneys having 4 or 5 pkt prs. And some guy with 8 10 suited winning. It is setup so some new guy can play his ace six off suit against a good player with ace king suited and win.. 10s verses 5 7 and get cracked ..this is online poker... Chit happens yes poker is poker but not all the time ..live is way better poker

I like online more , i always think everyone know what i am doing while playing live . I'm just starting so sometimes i react stupidly to some cards so people can read me... but i am working at it
Give me a good live cash game anytime (in a decent setting, not a boy's club's home game). I love the real buzz of all the people around the tables watching and actually going through the tension with the players.
But what's most important : I love to get to SEE who I'm up against, tells me a LOT more when I can see faces twitching and pants being scrubbed to shreds on the edges of seats

Been playing online about 3 months now. Recently playing live in the PKVV, Flander's poker champion tournament.
I will look for more chances to play live, because it's a diferent game for newbies like me, and the xcitement when you're playing at the final table with everyone standing around the table cheering you on just can't be beat! Make for a huge adrenalin rush when you go all in or win a big pot. Love it!...but need more practice live...
