Depends where your skills lay. There are live players that would get crushed in the same games online and vice-versa. Maybe you have more of an edge reading your opponents in person than you do online, or maybe others can say the same about you.

The only way you can really 'find out' is to try it yourself and record the data over a large sample size. Really no other way about it.

In theory, if you are equally profitable at an online or live table, then you may be inclined to play online out of convenience, and the ability to play multiple tables at one time.

Online is tougher than live, but live is slower and more rake.

Depends on where you live. If you have good live games nearby you will be better off learning the game online then head to the live games.

Make your BR anyway you can

I dont think the question is which one is best, but rather, which one can you be consistent on and build your bank roll....
And that is based on the individual. Some are better at online, others excel live. I think I am a better live player, especially in tournaments, but online usually has smaller buy ins.

I second this. Learning the fundamentals of your strategy online, then transferring it to live is probably a good strategy. Can't say from personal experience, but a break-even strategy online has gotta be profitable against recreationals and tourists.

is there a software you recommend to do things like that to record and go over the data after. The table sounds like more odds. Since i am new to online and never play real money i am a little sketchy about sites been rigged or if the can see your cards or things of that nature. what you advice about that

Players are way more educated and knowledgeable in general. Also everyone, but the fish have tracking software as well. Generally when someone thinks online poker is rigged the reality is the player is simply not as good as they think they are.

okay cool any other. how about software ?
Holdem Manager 2 or some variation of it, someone on this site has made a new program lately and there is also Poker Tracker 4. I would also recommend leakbuster for micro players, where what I would call it is the cheapest form of coaching you can get. I'm sure some people would recommend more, but as for the very basic level I would highly recommend that.

I guess one thing that hasn't been stated and is clearly an issue for some people is gambling in general, if you have an issue with that I would avoid the Casino at all costs if possible.

Depends on how much you want to spend but PT4 and HM2 both have 30 day free trials so you can see which one you like before you buy. Also you can check out twitch and look for tonka and jcarver they both are very good for learning the tournament game.

That's the best advice. I really appreciate you even telling me but that stage its behind my skeletons. Now.

Not yet but I have used the free trials and liked what was available from both so it is basically preference once you have used both. I prefer PT4 to HM2 but they are both good products.

poker takes much more skill whereas the casino you can win hundreds of dollars on roullette or blackjack with just luck in minutes. but with big wins can come with big losses.

Honestly, These are questions I think I can answer in a month or 2. I'm trying to figure some of that out now myself.
