Is Live Poker Easier Than Online?

[B1BOMBER]

I don't know if I would say live is easier but I like it better for I can watch my opponent and look for tells that I can't pick up on in an online game. At the same time I have to try to conceal any tells that I may be giving off so I not only have to watch my opponent I must also watch myself. But in the end I do find I win much more in live games. In my last 3 live games I have 1 win and 2 second place finishes. In my last 3 online games I have 1 win, 1 fourth, and 1 fifth place finish.

bluffing in live means mastering the game no emotion allowed nothing that can tell the oponents that you sit on 23 in online this is easy to deal

Easier online

Im my opinion online is a lot easier, since you have all the information visible (chips stacks, pot size). Playing live you also get alot more nervous/exited when you have a good hand, so people can read you better live and you can read them better as well.

and is verry easy to get scared next hand !

Scared? what do you mean?

Scared? what do you mean?

Scared to lose all your chips and you fold more hands than you should.
But most of all scared to be beaten by the players at the end of the game .

I Do not know which is better, because not playing in live poker. So I can not compared.
I think that when you play online poker it was not give for you those feelings while you play in live poker

I like to play online. Because you do not need to go anywhere.
You can relax in your own home and earning money without leaving home
I think so

I think it is, most amateur players give away so much information at the tables. The problem is, even with a smaller edge online is more profitable because you can play many more hands in a day.

Live is live, you can see the reaction of opponents and therir expression of face, it's a pleasure of Live poker.

I`m sure, that online is easier. Live poker includes much more aspects. It`s more complicated to focus on the game because of impact on you other players and outward things. As for online poker, you can choose place and conditions for game.

 

[robcubus]

Easy for that. You need to formulate the question well, ..

 

[cubons]

For me live is easier and it is more fun,
because when I play I like to talk.

 

[wils18]

I get better the game live the bad thing is that it spreads a lot .. online is faster

 

[rehanov]

it seems more fun but much much less hands

 

[tilan501]

Hell noo

Most of player´s that are used to play online don´t know how to study opponents, not to demonstrate feelings. So start playing on cheap tables.
Good Luck!

It depends on the game really, 1/2NL online is tougher than 1/2NL live since that's the lowest stake you can play live in most casinos, but once you start moving up in stakes most live players can crush online players in live games if they're uncomfortable playing live. I have played lots of both and prefer live play over playing online

 

[vadimknyshov]

The game is much more interesting live than online. In a live game, you see rivals, their emotions, and you get pleasure from communication ...

 

[VovanBaron]

Live is more interesing and your skills prove a lot.you can learn how to read your opponents and do your game better.

 

[smallfrie]

Live is harder because of travel and game availability. As for the poker itself, some will find live harder some will find the adjustment easier and find live much easier. My opinion is the live players at every level are worse than the online players.

 

[Thenightrain]

A key benefit of online play is that it is much faster so you have the opportunity to experience a lot more hands than you would in the same time playing live.

 

[RiversRage]

Not sure if there is a answer to that question..its truly based on a player to player experience I like live play for the aspect of looking for physical tells and enjoy the live interaction. At the same time online play I see more hands and it helps build my experience faster

Live is easier than online poker [emoji16]

 

[wilpinsi]

I believe it does not make any difference live we are facing the enemy in this way we can get a look in your eyes before making a decision.

 

[malakata19]

Looking for my firts live tournament I can´t say nothing, but I expected that´s can be fun.

 

[Yoo]

Online is easier from my site ot view cuz your emotions cant be readed from pro poker players.In live you can ''read''when you are bluffed,online the only way to see that is to CALL....lol

 

[vadimknyshov]

Well, I do not know how to account for it easier, but more interesting in 100 times it's for sure)
