I don't know what you guys find in the micro levels online - I don't play those and neither do any of the successful female poker players I know.

But live - the bottom line is that the men far outnumber the women.

I would say percentage wise in the games I play there are as many men who are tight players as women. There are more men percentage wise who spew chips by being aggressive when they shouldn't be.

And there are plenty of men who lose to me because they assume I am a tight player. :)

So I love the perception. I can make a man lay down AT on an AJx flop when I am holding pocket tens because he "knows" I would only shove with a big ace or pocket Jacks lol.

That's awesome that you can use this to your advantage!! Too bad that doesn't work online though.

Our thinking is different. Mostly they are not interested in poker. Therefore, they play much less. And even if they like the game, they typically don't read, watch videos, analyze, etc.
In contrast a significant percentage of men like poker.

Because perhaps women are not as dedicated to learning as poker tips, but they are too smart to play.

I think poker currently has a lot of women and is very competitive too
