Default Re: Just Got Patrik Antonius Answer To The Question I Asked Kenny Tran

I think the answer to all this is simple. Online guys see a lot more hands and are generally just all around smarter than the old school love pros. IF and a big IF, the live guys are better at live deep stacked poker, then it would just be a matter of the top online NL pros dedicating themselves to the nuances of deep stacked play and then it would be all over for the live guys. And obviously with 100bb stacks it's not even close. The online guys would destroy the live guys.

and you don't think the opposite is true for the live guys? you don't think if they farted around with 100bb stacks for a few months, they couldn't torture the online games? if so, why not?

Bob,

I think the skill set is slightly different for live. You can get by with some fundamental mistakes and make up for with your superior reads. Whereas online this is much harder to overcome.

I do think it would take a couple of years for online players to get as good as live in a live setting.

Someone posted a youtube link where Daniel N discusses this very thing. I pretty much agreed with everything he said. perhaps someone can re link?
