No way. Playing live is the best. It's a much richer experience and there's so much more you can read into the other players when you are live in ways that you can't online.

Live poker will always be around because it is profitable for casinos to host it. They'll always get players, if they can't? Tailor some bonuses bullshit to try and make it seem like the "players" are getting some crazy deal in return for playing.

If USA poker was legalized in the US again, it would cause an INSANE Poker boom.

Nope, live poker is the most stimulating, it has the real competitive nature of sport where your facing opponents, reading and being read by everyone, and paying for your mistakes without being able to hop to another tournament.
It's still interesting to see where online poker will go, it go could go the way of business video conferencing. Somehow video imaging of the whole table allowing you to watch all players as the game moves on. By the way I've just copyright the concept as intellectual property.

there is nothing better than playing with real cards with friends. usually we go from good times especially when there are plenty of fish around your table. It is easier to see if your opponent bluff or ila good cards.

Online poker is mainly math based, with a small amount of reading your opponent by the way they hesitate or some other tells. In live poker, you can watch your opposing players when they are in the hand and even when they are not involved, giving a better read. Live poker is a slower pace to allow for more reflection as to how this hand and previous hands have been played.
If poker is meant for recreation and not just to make money, the round the table bantering can be fun. Yes, you can also get players who will be rude and crude to try to put you off your game, or trash talk to put you on tilt, but for the most part, it can be fun. For example, playing with Phil Helmuth or Mike the Mouth or Jamie Gold would be excruciatingly painful, playing with Daniel Negreanu or Phil Laak would be hysterically funny.

Besides the wsop and other huge tourneys will always be live for the publicity and advertising and to bring people to the area to spend money. That's mainly what everything is about anyways an event that will bring people to spend there money in the surrounding areas
Not saying they don't have big online tourneys just saying those tourneys will always be live.

No, of course not! live poker will not die! firstly a group of friends on holiday always want fun fun at the poker table! For most of the game in the heat eivuyu this behavior when you try to read the emotions and thoughts and understand what card your opponent. This is a whole art of hiding his emotions when I missiles, and the flop comes ace still, I often read.

no

not .a technology can greatly help online poker, especially in creating a new sensation for players Unfortuantely today online poker is a bit lonely, because even winning major tournaments online player often plays alone and even his vibe is more shy when she wins a tournament, so the technology in addition to improve so you can bring rather more personal for poker however'll never replace the live poker

I hope not.

Playing online is perfect for small tournaments and everyday play but you are missing the factor of seeing your opponents and trying to understand what they are holding from the look of their face. I would like to experience that in full someday in a World Tournament.

defenately not

Poker is a game where people seek pride... That pride is represented by chips and money true... But the real adrenaline rush is the pride... And having that pride around a group of people or sitting in your living room is two different things... Live poker will always be a better game...

I think that online poker and live poker will be in demand . Many people play at home with friends and loved ones , they also play online . And I think with online poker will change , with the development of technology .

No. People are too sociable to be content with online only. That, and it seems like there is a resurgence of live poker.

my short answer would be no although I prefer to play online myself many players I know like live play for the atmosphere
also tv coverage would not have the same impact with online play
