I've recently just started playing live in the casinos in Glasgow. I honestly feel that my game has gotten stronger because playing live you have to think a lot more and keep track of all the moves your opponents are making.. online all the thinking is done for you. . Previous hands are stored , you know how much is in pot at all times, it even tells you what your hand is and what chance in % u have of winning. I feel there is more skill needed to play live and u better be alert and focused at all times. 4 times I have played in the casino and I'm going again tonight. Cashed 1nce £105... £30buy in with 73 players and I came 12th. What do you guys think?online or live ?

If you are skilled, live poker give you opportunity to read players game, his reactions, facial expressions, so it give you much more then online poker. I prefer online, coz im lazy to go out, plus, you need more time to go there to play and go back to house, and from online you are already here, it much more faster. But i still prefer and support live poker, coz i have more belief in dealers. There is no informatic system poker dealer. But still, winning and losing are independent of this division (live or online)

I like to play online and live, but I prefer online because it gives me the possibility to see a lot more hands, so the long term comes much faster for those who play thousands of hands in a successful way

yes

I agree with what you said. Also i feel that at the casino people are less likely to act like a donkey and call off half their stack on gutshots.

I never played live :( Only a couple of games with friends (10euros buy-in, no re-buys no add-ons, 9 players, 1st place 45e, 2nd 30e, 3rd 15e).It is quite fun playing with friends, but i prefer online for now, because i can lay in my bed, stand up do whatever I want and play.

I like to play online. You can just open your computer and play. You do not need to go anywhere.

I as a begginer i prefer online because you can play in much more tournaments with smaller stakes. For me is important to play as much as possible.

In offline poker, I rarely play with friends. I prefer to play online poker. Playing on the Internet, I feel more comfortable. I'd like to play live poker in a casino or poker clubs to gain experience.

Much more often I play online poker. I play very seldom with my friends. It's always very fun. But we never play for money.

This....two different animals. Live, to me at least, is "true" poker. No HUD's notes or hand histories to help you. You have to rely on your eyes and recall all on your own. Live you actually have the chance to read an opponent rather than rely on notes or bet sizing patterns. Definitely a better game live.

I really want to play live
I lose unbelievable games online, always on the river!
I believe to be playing tournaments would have more profit than I have online

For me, it's now mostly online but I prefer live poker.

I have a four to five hour drive, just to get to the nearest casino and then the drive back home. I could go for a few days, but then there's the accommodation expenses to take into account.

These days, the choice between a five day casino holiday or a five day fishing trip, the fishing trip always wins.

I have been playing live poker since 2009

I have been playing live poker since 2009. My experience is about 8 years. Live poker is much more interesting and easier to play than in online poker. In live poker you can completelyFeel the game and the psychology of the opponents. One time I earned a living playing poker, it was my main income. In online poker I can not achieve such results, I can not understand for what reason, I play only on a good card and on nuts, and still can not learn how to steadily win. Thanks to Card Chats Freerolls, I managed to earn a small bankroll, and all the rest of the time when I was playing live money in online poker, I was in minus.
