I prefer online poker because it's fast paced and you can play at home. It would be too boring for me to wait 3-4 minutes after folding to play the next.

Live poker is much more entertaining for me. Real players, cards, chips, table and dealer make the game much more fun. Online has the advantage to be much cheaper generally and you can play from any place and at any time as long as you have internet and phone/pc.

Online poker is more profitable than playing live since playing live a bad streak affects your bankroll much more and can last longer, but the emotions that are experienced playing live are more rewarding like winning a tournament.

In online poker we can play several tournaments at the same time and in live obviously we cannot and it took a lot more patience to play the correct hands.

I prefer not to line up because I don't know how to handle my body expression and I become very obvious to my opponents.

I never played live. I think it's interesting but I prefer playing online. In addition, it is better to stay at home during a pandemic.

I think that face to face is much more complicated than online because online you usually play quietly at home etc, personally there is a lot of pressure!

Live poker is good but I prefer online. No need to go anywhere, you can play any game and enjoy it at any time, especially with COVID situation right now. But I am dreaming to play a live poker in Vegas or Macao!

Of course it is simplier to play from your home, but much more interesting playing live and have some fun.

i like online because in real say you are staking alot of $$ people can read you even if you try to hide it because subconsciously people do things when they bluff ...

I prefer online. I hate playing live. There are very few people I have actually enjoyed sitting at the poker table with in a live setting.

When you playing live you start paying attention to everything whats going on at table, you start picking up some tells and playing the hand more thoughtfully. And it's the whole different feelings.
I love both online and live poker and those are really different games.

I personally prefer live poker because in addition to the game itself, you also have the opportunity to chat with the people at the table about current situations or hands and that also helps you improve, because what better way than to have a good poker dialogue with people at the time who speculate only on everything played? that's a little opinion of mine

I prefer to play online, just because i don,t have experience in live poker and i think this is just 2 different games. Some players can be successful in online poker and they can,t show good results in live games. Right now i think it,s better to play in online poker. Rooms offer different promotions, even if you don,t have a bankroll for the game, there are lots of freeroll and opportunities in different rooms and you can build your bankroll even from a freerolls and do not risk your own money at all.

I have no experience playing live poker, only with friends. It sometimes seems fun to play live poker in a casino. It doesn't seem to compare to playing online poker.

I'm used to playing online and now I would never sit down to play live. It's easier for me to play.
