Do you like to play off-line or on-line?
I concluded that I prefer to play off-line. And I guess that this is because when you play live, there are so many distracting factors-factors around you that are very distracting and interfere with making the right decision.

But playing at a computer monitor is a lot more boring!
What do you prefer - to play off-line or on-line?

Formerly I had opportunity to play off-line with my friends. Now for me is available only on-line. I can`t say, that I dislike on-line poker, but nevertheless off-line poker makes up the backbone of a poker in general, therefore I find off-line more interesting!

I would also prefer off-line, but I live in a very small city where there is practically no offline poker game. A couple of friends who know little about the rules and do not know the strategy at all - conscience does not allow me to ruin them by hundreds of dollars every month. ;)

In addition, I love tournament poker, and off-line it's a cache, except for big events that go far from me.

In off-line a lot more interesting, but also more problems.
I play sometimes in the clandestine club. At first (after I won the second tournament) was looking at me menacingly players. But then improved and we are now a normal relationship.

I have never tried to play offline poker, and I do not have any friends playing poker. I would like to play offline poker, but while I'm satisfied with the online game, I'm sorry that I can not compare!

I played more online than offline, I feel that I play better online as I get less distracted.

I would much rather play live poker. The only problem is finding live games without having to drive 3 to 5 hours. Online I can find a game any time I wish to play.:D:D

Preferably live but enjoy both. Haven't played much either way here of late. Always nice to step back and take a deep breath.

Off-line. Real-life-Poker is much better than Online. You can show the reaction from the other player when they show there cards etc... So u can analyse there playing. Also rael-life-poker makes more fun... and the feeling in the casino ;-)

Too much a good read in live situation. And I will continue thatway for a long moment. Always have bad beat in internet. Nobody cares in net tourney. Almust everybody rebuy and go and call with any As or any suited or any card they mentally try to improve. So I will continue my path .

I prefer offline because online there is no interaction face to face. Also I feel that online poker is rigged sometimes.

I definitely prefer offline games, because I can get a much better read on my opponents than i can with online poker. With that being said I do sometimes get distracted at the table offline compared to playing online. Online has a few advantages but i def prefer offline.

I prefer on-line poker, but have a far better win percentage at off-line (live) games.

I like to play live, but I play much better online.
I'm way to transparent when I play live, so people can read me so easily.
Online I can just say or do whatever, when I'm in a hand, nobody can see it anyway.

Playing in real life beats everything, even if without any stakes. But online is more convenient and for me possible these days while still being entertaining enough.
