Sometimes I think that one day I'm going to win a Sunday million or some big event and make myself known in poker, but what do you think will become recognized for online poker?

Or the best way is to go to a casino and risk real capital and if you win a big prize it gives more prestige than playing online poker?

How many poker legends started in online poker?

The level of income depends on skill, hard work and bankroll - the amount of money intended for the game.In poker, the influence of dispersion is high - the deviation of real results from mathematical expectation. Long periods of failure are inevitable, and without a sufficient bankroll, a player risks going bankrupt.Many people switch from poker to casino games from time to time because they get tired of the monotony of this popular card discipline. This is especially true for those who play online.Currently, only real professionals who, as they say, have already “eaten the dog” in this matter, manage to make stable money from casinos.As for just playing in a casino, we think you have already heard more than once that it is impossible to win against him! This means that the chances of making money here are simply scanty.In a casino, only the owner of the establishment will win; in poker, the one who devotes more time to the game and its nuances, the one who has experience and skills.There is a diagnosis in the casino - a lucky newcomer.I am the best! I am the chosen one! Everyone else is an idiot and only loses, but I win a lot quickly and easily. It'll be this way forever. This will happen because I am special and everyone around me tells me that I am very lucky.

I don't think about such things because I don't plan to play poker professionally. Playing for fun is enough for me, and if the day comes and I win a tournament and a million or at least a hundred thousand, I will be very happy about it. And if such a day never comes, which is more than likely, then at least I will have a great time :)

How many poker legends started in online poker? <<< Most! Most of the top guys (Tournament players) are either former online tournament crushers or they are playing both live & online.
So when you play online you're not risking 'real capital'?

My suggestion to you:
Start out at the smallest stakes and work your way up. It takes a lot of experience and a lot of work (studying, perseverance, a great work ethic, etc. etc.) to achieve consistent results... especially as you move up in buy-in limits.

The casino game is a lottery compared to the poker game, we should try as much as possible to play those games that require more brains, but the casino is totally out of competition in this regard

All my screen names at every site and poker related site are all completely different and only my wife and very good buddy know them. I've worked hard and solo to remain mostly an unknown winning player for 20+ years. Why would I want that to change? So I can brag about it? So people can think they can come up to me, bother, think I owe them something or/and they can try to scam and steal from me. No thanks. I couldn't careless about fame, being well known as a poker player or being able to brag about it. All brings too many negatives.....I'd rather just quietly just take their money and quietly be gone when I'm ready.

Cheers!!!

Casinos suck ! Literally. They are designed to de-money you. I personally cannot stand all the flashy lights and sounds of all the slots etc.
I know the poker rooms must be quieter, but I wouldn't want to spend hours and hours in that environment no way.

The best way is to be yourself, do what you know how to do, don't be lazy and don't waste your time. I think this is the best way to get well-deserved recognition, both in poker and in personal life :)

That's a good dream! You have to do everything you can to make it come true. I have a similar target in poker too. I agree that we need to win a major online poker tournament. Regarding casinos, I don't play slots for real money (only freespins are an exception). :unsure:

I wouldn't want to go to a casino, as it is gambling and you lose money over the long run in most cases.

But poker has a big element of skill involved, so if you learn how to become a winning player, your earnings will be much more stable and generally increase with time.

Great casino player? Casino is mostly about luck, how can you be a good casino player? The casino is all about pulling down, it is no coincidence that the saying: the house always wins.
So definitely go in the direction of the great poker player, because there you at least have an influence on your game, in the casino it will be what the 'machine throws'.

Poker can also be about luck if you are "playing" FLIP tournaments ...

I think you have way more chances to win a big tournament than win big playing casino games, so, I would keep with poker. Yes, there were many famous poker players that started playing online.

Online poker has definitely been a springboard for many legendary players. While the allure of a live casino win is undeniable, the digital arena offers its own path to glory. Just ask the likes of Chris Moneymaker, who turned an online satellite into a world series of poker Main Event victory, forever changing the game's landscape.

Alot of the new generation started online and built up their reputations that way before heading into the real world games. Online poker is much harder than real life poker. You play a ton more hands per hour and multitable to increase even that plus you are battling players ith HUDs and other strategy solver software that you don't encounter in real life. So, hone your skills online and when you are ready to take the plunge, then do it if you can afford it.

I think it's best to win the biggest tournament on Sunday and become recognizable at least among poker players and show what a strong player you are and they will already know you as a strong player than to go and play at a casino because online poker is more popular now and will give you more recognition

Good morning everyone, I started playing poker at the end of 2018, since the beginning I've always been profitable on all the sites I play on, everyone knows that learning a little bit of theory is enough to be profitable on micros. Why am I profitable at poker? Because I'm always studying and practicing and this will almost always generate profits for the majority of players who are studying. Casino games, those who have never played, don't be curious as they are games that are impossible to profit from in the long term, they are games that are made using mathematical probability, which is always in the casino's favor. If there were bets in the casino to play even or odd, in this game you have a 50% chance of winning and 50% of losing, after playing 100 thousand times, you will neither win nor lose because the ev is equal to zero. Which game you have less than a 50% chance of winning, the more you play the more you will lose, don't go under the illusion that casino is made for fun, this is the propaganda to attract more and more players. How many gamblers have you seen go bankrupt vs casinos going bankrupt? Casino is made to take money from players.
