I prefer live poker, which means I'm on vacation. I am more relaxed at a casino, and I enjoy looking into opponents faces. I enjoy talking to fellow players....can't type fast enough to chat online, and usually play more than one table. Playing live also gives you a better read on other players, since you can only play one table at a time. And the lowest stakes you can find at a casino is $1/2 or $1/3 NLHE. There is more of an adrenalin rush than playing 2 cent/5 cent online.
