Online has given me the opportunity to improve my game at a very low cost. I can play a month's worth of live tournaments in one or two days, and a year's worth in a couple of months.

I prefer online poker because I can play at home. And of course I can play many games during the same day (or session) which is not really possible in live poker.

Its all I have left since I wont play in a mask. I am surprised there are not more like me who refuse to play in a mask.

Its not that I lack concern for others, it is just that I will not be comfortable for the length of time it takes to play.

Generally the deeper you go in an MTT the better the players are online. Better players force me to play better. I become better faster.

I prefer to play live, but online poker has advantages too, like I can play several tables at the same time and I can use any clothes to play even on my pajamas..lol

Live poker will not give you the same amount of hands and therefore experience as online poker. It is obvious.

I would prefer playing live more but the reason I play online more is simple. I can afford it. My nearest card room is now 1 1/2 hourss away and most tournaments are over $100.00 to play. I can play anytime I want with in moments at and buy in I can afford. Do I love online poker, Yes I do. Playing live is just more fun.

Because Covid has given me no other choice. We are in a lockdown and not allowed to visit anyone.

I would much rather play live but even our local home game has been shut down since mid December. That said I would rather play online than not at all!!!!!!!!!:D:D

Online poker is much cheaper to play and you can play from any place at any time as far as you have internet and device which can run the client. It is much easier and cheaper to squeeze into your schedule one or two hours of poker play at time selected by you than it is to go to real casino and spend at least few hours in travel and play. Saying that experience in the real casino is much more fun and i like it more but i definitely play much more frequently online due to the convenience ans low cost.

the speed of the game and that you can play many tournaments at the same time, the comfort of being at home, being able to organize your surroundings to your liking to have a good session, etc. I think there are many positive things:jd4::jd4::jd4::jd4:

Hello
I was brought up not to cheat people, and in live poker it is difficult for me to bluff looking in the face of an opponent, and online removes these restrictions from me
