Provided always good live aid for player to show their skills in the game.
for me the major differnece is when you think someone is bluffing yu can't watch the emotions on there face. and it makes decision making harder.
Is different. More tells from physical actions. You might treat someone different by the way they look or act in person.
they rules are the same... or close to it... but no... online isn't the same game as live...
playing live and playing online are no where similar, online i can play in my underwear in person i can't. :)
you have to pay close attention to when your turn is, and what the blinds are etc.
First off, Azreal should be removed from chat and forum. Easily the nastiest human on PO. I just can't imagine what Zab see's in him. Secondly, playing live or on the internet are very different skills and I much prefer and play better live. That is how I learned poker and I played it for a reasonable but meager living for 3 years. I'm not very good on the internet side of poker. I get too easily distracted, push the wrong buttons, and generally find it a cold and not really human form of communication. I don't really act like myself, either. Finally, and to me most importantly, I completely distrust RNG's vs human dealers. I see stuff online every day that you wouldn't see in a year of live play. I used to average 80 hours of play per week live when I was making a living doing it. I maybe average 25 hours playing on the internet per week. I rarely, if ever, play more than one game at a time. Runner, runner straights and flushes and winning hands where only one card plays in the hole happen practically every 3 hands on the internet. The pure number of quads, straight flushes, and full houses online are beyond belief. Playing internet poker is just like playing a slot machine. I'm not paranoid and don't necessarily think the RNG's are fixed, but then again they "could" be. There are bots, idiots, and far too many people who treat computer poker like it's a video game. To me, live poker is poker, internet poker might have the same rules, but it's not even close to the same game.
All very well said.Quote:
