live vs online

[weber_sw]

So I have been playing quite a bit of live games lately and it really makes online poker not even fun anymore.
I dont know if it is the feel of the chips and watching for peoples tells, but I have had no desire to play online as of late and when i do play i find it not as satisfying...what are your thoughts on the differances between the two?

Playing live is sweet. although to take it seriously you gotta save up a lot more to play the bankroll game because you are playing higher financial incriments. the game play is pretty easy at the low levels though people lack discipline. lots of people dont go to the casino to fold hand after hand, they come to gamble!

casino games, live, are fantastic, but with players from the slot machines is not entertaining

Well, in my opinion, playing live is much better. For example the feeling at the table, shufling chips etc. Also I tilt less live than online, and that's the most important difference for me, as tilt is my biggest problem
The only plus side of online play IMHO is multitabling, but it can lead for your game to become worse so it's not always a positive side.

I prefer playing online actually. I love the speed and none of my friends really play competitively. I'm sure I could find some games to play in but most of my friends lose interest and go in on shit hands.

People play online way more seriously. If you go to the casino a lot of people come out to gamble not to fold hand after hand

preiero jugar online, asi tranquilamente desde mi casa de manera relajada y sin problemas para jugar. cuando quiera me retiro, ademas no terngo que vestir ropa de tiendas para presumir ser elegante.
