Long time no post

So, i've taken some time off from poker, and a permanent hiatus from Online poker. The game online is no fun, and feels like a chore, something i'm not really enjoying anymore....

I've decided that online poker is a completely different game, despite having the same exact rules as live poker... but live poker is more about the interaction with other players etc etc etc....

As such, i withdrew my measly bankroll on pokerstars and started a live play bankroll, finally got it to manageable levels (4200$) and am playing live poker at the local casino here in OKC.

I can't tell you how big of a difference it made... where in Online poker i was a break even player (mainly due to patience issues with such small stakes) at the B&M games... I am winning nearly EVERY time i play. And I don't even have to actually play the cards at this game... its so easy to play the actual players in these games... in the last 5 times i've gone to the casino i've never had to rebuy on the table .. making

100 - 2h of play
800 - 10h of play
500 - 3h of play
200 - 3h of play
200 - 2h of play

And its not even from getting good cards.. its from the weakness at the tables... playing big pots with small hands.... which might be the biggest thing i've learned... big pots with big hands, small pots with small hands.

people are willing to go to the river no matter what when they hit top pair on the flop! I literally doubled my stack the other day within minutes of sitting down by limping in on the button with 7 limpers, with 85o and hitting a straight and stacking off on a guy with A9!

Anyhow, just thought i'd post with whats up with everything, why i hadn't been around and all that.

what stakes are you playing and what stakes did you play online? In my experience live 200nl is similar to 5nl so live is pretty easy to beat and fun. Nothing like the feel of real chips in your hand

Yeah, i'm playing 1/2NLHE right now. I was playing .05/.10NLHE online.

Im glad you found your niche in the poker game.Gotta go with what you are good at to make money.
Personally I never could make much money at 10c tables.I have done well at 50c-$1 badbeat tables,altho I havnt hit the jackpot yet.If ya get online,give the badbeat jackpot tables a try.They dont have much donkin going on.
Wtg n good luck to ya styrofoam
