Vegas, Live/Online, and the Ultimate Online Edge
There has been much talk about live vs online players, but very little is said about the ultimate advantage the online players have.
Poker is all about decision making, and frankly it appears the online guys have really won this one. Now I have been to vegas many times, and it is fun, but every time, I end up way past ready to leave. It seems online players have basically found a way to play this great game, many of them doing it full time, from the comfort of a much more ideal 'home' or even from their exotic travels. I know many players who basically say if online didn't exist, they would quit playing as a job simply because of how much the lifestyle of a live pro in Vegas would just be depressing and suck. So IMO, this is one area of the poker world the online players are making a far better decision at. Poker is a great game, but is it worth living in the concrete playground and spendning your time amongst the degenerates of the world every day? I think not, not if you don't have to. Thank you internet. |

Thank you Al Gore. [/ QUOTE ] Haha, yea yea yea... I do wish to add that all this talk about how the online best would fair as regulars in the big games live is a bit silly. Why? Because it isn't that the online players COULDN'T become the best players in those games, its that they have shown (and nor should they) zero interest in shifting to a far worse life just to prove something to these live guys. Time and time again, online players play live and win, but only from time to time, and for fun. They may jet over for the big games once or twice a year, but would never move out there just for the pissing contest, again an example of decision making at its best. |
