Re: live game vs online: is it a completely diffierent game?
I don't really know but I do know one thing. I play relativley low stakes online. I do well as I have built up enough of a stack to play with online anyway just from freerolls (which I no longer play because I have a little stack). So right now you are thinking that I like the online game. I am in the green this year so far online with upswings and downswings and this is where I do most of my play. But!!!! I play a boatload of home game tourney's (whenever I can) and I have been in the money about 80%+ (the games are weak but that is ok I will take it). I have also went to the casino twice this year. The first was a tourney at for
$50 with I think 160 ppl. I took 2nd. (when I got HU he flopped 2 pair every time) That alone netted me a huge profit for I am just a low stakes player. The 2nd time I decided to head up one morning whe the casino opened. I brought $300 as the buy in is $100. I had invested $200 by the end but I walked away up $500. I wish I had the bankroll to play there and the time. I feel that I could beat that game because there was a ton of weak players who just didn't know how to play their hands. I took huge advantage and would have won another $200 if I dind't suffer a bad beat.
