It never ceases to amaze me the number of well-educated, intelligent people that make matter of fact like statements professing the overwhelming edge that live players have vs. online players in a live/deep setting.
Enough all ready. The biggest long-term winners in online poker have played WAY more hands against MUCH tougher competition than the biggest long-term live winners. This is not to say that there aren't many very, very good players live, but I'm certain that they don't have any significant edge against the best online players. |

Nice post, but I think the lack of variance in chess and tennis makes the Kasparov/Federer analogies fairly meaningless. I think that's the real reason why there has never, and probably will never be a well-defined "best player" in poker. [/ QUOTE ] agree - and it's the lack of a luck element in chess and tennis that causes the lack of variance. |

At 27 this post makes me feel doomed. At least there's always shortstacking/ratholing. Unexploitable!
