Nice I'll check it out. Do you find live has been better for you than online?

When I played online, it was almost exclusively 18 & 27 man SNGs on PS and tournaments on PS & FT. Can't say one is better than the other, they are just different.

I play live occasionally and I find 4/8 limit players to be easier to beat then a 2NL game online poker is Srsly tough LOL.

I do not play live often. It would be Texas Holdem normally. Low Limit games whenever possible for cash games. If I could get into a low limit Omaha game (Hi/Lo) cash game I would go for that too. Max I am comfortable live cash games are 10/20. casinos are the only place I play live.

I play live 2/5 in the LA area. I have been winning almost every month for a few years now. I will eventually take my game up to 5/10 and bigger but right now I am just coasting the 2/5 game. Online I don't play at all.

I play Live poker when I go in a Cruise so for about a week.

The first 2 nights is nice but since every night is almost same players, people get to know your playing style and then not much winnings. :deal:

I play live in Missouri. We have casinos and also a vibrant charity scene as well as home games and bar leagues. We don't get the big tournaments series anymore except HPT.

I play live occasionally now at a local tribal casino. Actually won about $10K on a bad beat jackpot not too long ago playing $4/$8 limit O8.

Haven't been back for months - it seems like every time I go the people who play small stakes games are all regulars.

This would be fine, but they openly collude and are generally unpleasant to be around (when these are the regulars the staff won't do anything about it apparently).

Good luck to you! :D

It often seems that CardsChat is filled with a lot of online micro to low stakes players, which is fine and definitely a blast to read about, discuss, and learn from as we hone our skills and practice our passion of poker together.

But I'm curious as to how many people here play live poker:

And if so what stakes, location (casino, home game, underground), format/type, frequency.

I'm also wondering if the mods have considered a live game sub-forum under one of the main headings depending on how many folks enjoy live poker.

Amateur ... I play with my friends on weekends turbo tournaments (9 Players). The only good thing; Most of the time I take the winnings. :D
