1) Seeing your cards before the action gets to you = I think this is a big
difference and results in people deciding on their course of action too
soon and can lead to playing way too many hands. I do my best when
I am very detached from the screen - even to the point of stretching
and walking out of the room between hands Im involved in.
2) Pace of play - In an individual tourney, I feel the pace of play is
way too slow - I know many players multi - table and that is fine
I can play 3 tourneys and not feel too much pressure but I really
like to notice all the subtleties going on. Live poker there is rhythm
to the play and conversations that I just don't feel online.
3) Anonymity and hostility - There is so much random garbage being
spewed in the chat box its crazy - also I tend to recognize player
betting patterns quickly but not being able to look at the player
and sense their strength or weakness in a particular hand is a
definite disadvantage for me.
