Many people say they play better live. For me it´s the same. I guess because noone wants to look like a fool when facing someone else live, so people are more cautious!

I have only played online and never live, however, i think they are very different as your facial expressions can be read at live tables so it would be more difficult to face a pro on live than on online.

Yeah, it's the interaction which makes live so unique, haven't tried it as there are very few people that play poker here, but i'll try it once on a casino here

I got slim to none experience with live games, of course the game is the same but I think im readable like a book if you know anything about tells. So without doubt my best game is online

Would any of you consider to start playing more live games to develop and improve your "poker faces" or do you think you´ll just stick to online poker?
I ask because I see many people playing online trying to qualify for big event, but forget that they don´t have much experience in live games!

I never play events....allways grinding at the ring games I feel so trapped in tournaments because of the time and blinds and I can't leave when I want. But you are right most people don't think of that when they reg for a big event.

Lots of women hu? I always lose against their pocket breasts... or should I say lose myself... or heck, I don´t know just thinking about it makes me dizzy! But shhh! don´t tell anyone, that´s a weakness of mine.
online you can play a lot of table and this is very good per hour, but you can't see the people and for somebody this is bad and they lose money... anyway offline for is a fun and online is a work...

per hour, but you can't see the people and for somebody this is bad and they lose money...
