Hi.
I work at least 5 days a week, so I have free time to play, only in the evenings after work. I do not have the opportunity to go after work to the casino, so I prefer to play at home, online.
Good luck.

For me playing at a real table is much more complicated because not only are you concentrating but you are also trying to avoid giving away too much of your hands in each game, so I prefer online games where expressions are not so easily given away.

I like online because I can put my feet in front of the computer table and relax as much as I want. In a real table I can't do that. Where are my manners? LOL

I prefer real tables because you can get a better read on opponents and have a better time socializing with the table

I agree. I also like the socializing as well as the truly random game.

I am playing over one decade online poker and really enjoy it. It is easy, it is comfy to play from home. But in 2019 I also started to play my first live games and I really enjoyed them. I played them in the UK, where are a lot of affordable MTTs are available, beside the 888 London Live event, that I was able to play there. I even cashed some in these local events in a city near London, unfortunatley not in this 888 event.

But I have to say, I really enjoyed the atmosphere there at Sunday, when there were a lot of couples there, who played as well. It was a relative soft field and I really enjoyed the evening to being out, dress up, eat there and play there.
The 888 event was much tougher and not so cosy for me, I would say.

But anyway, I wished to repeat such live events, when it is somehow safe again about pandemic.....
It is different, but it is also fun. :)

I prefer to play at a real table. But the pandemic forced me to only play online nowadays.

I usually prefer real table because you can have a better reading of your opponents which make the game more fun to play.

I definitely prefer to play in person because I enjoy the social interaction of the game, as much as I do the mechanical, strategical, and tactical parts.

I like both. Real table is usually more social. Online is more convenient.

I prefer online, it's faster. Not enough patience for live.

I prefer to play online, because I'm a little embarrassed and that way I'm more comfortable

I'm an online poker player, but I really want to experience the emotions of playing a live poker tournament.
I have played very little live and cash games with friends, I have not played yet in a casino tournament or event ..

Live poker with friends is one of the best things that 10 people can do together sitting at the same table.

Live of course ,there not even close to the same game,luckily the only way for a guy my age to learn was live there was no internet, Nothing better to sit in a live game with a bunch of player's who have only played online,salivating at just the thought,you don't know this game to you have played a lot live

I love playing live poker with friends and other like minded people, however the stress free environment of playing at home online and cheaper food/ drinks is always going to be my go to

I also prefer real table for the same reason plus I really do think some people are programmed to loose no matter what.
