Difference between your Online and B&M game?
What are some of the differences in your online play vs. your B&M play? How do you have to vary your game when you make this switch?

I limp more live than online but not a ton of difference in the big picture as far as strategy goes. It's still poker.
Alot of online players think live poker is too slow but there is more of a "people" element to live poker. |

Re: Difference between your Online and B&M game?
I thinks the tells aspect that everyone pushes is vastly overrated.
Live players generally offer spectacular implied odds, and the ability to limp. Because of the TAGGISH nature of most online games, limping is usually a bad strategy. Because live players tend to call more, continuation bets aimed at the wrong players are stupid. Online, the cont bet is your best friend. I think live players get stuck on top pair wayyy more and your sets and flushes get paid. On the other hand, the pace makes me want to stick a pencil in my eye and the rake is like, everything on the whole table every 2 hours or so. From my perspective, it is the same game with vastly different player pools. Most good players will find that their edge is much higher live but that the inability to multitable, incredibly high rake, and slow pace counter this, and make the internet more profitable. |

The first that comes to my mind is the standard PF raise which is usually 2 to 3 times higher live.
Table image is also way more important in live game than online. |

During online, I feel like a social outcast. During live, I feel like the rest of the table are social outcasts.

there is no difference for me. I suck equally at online poker as I do live.

The major difference for me is booze. Online I don't drink to stay focused. Live I have to drink to stay sane.

Preflop raises. Online standard for 1/2 is 6-10. Live 15-25+ is standard, at least in my game.
Live players are much, much worse. If I could play 500 hands/hr with live players with infinite money I would make $1500/hr easily. |
