Default live vs. online/ seat changes and waiting lists...

I have been giving this much thought and as a result have come up with this conclusion. Live players would dominate the online "crowd" for a number of reasons, neither of them being tells, antes , or the ability to make big laydowns.

The reasons quite simply would be the superior skill by the live players to navigate the live waiting lists and/or seat changes once at the tables with the latter probably being the biggest obstacle for online players. Your average all star online player making 6 or 7 figures would lose a ton of big blinds posting accidently UTG as he would not be used to the other players who so adeptly maneuver the crowd between the racebook and their respective poker seat.
The frustration these online noobs would feel after posting one too many times utg because they thought there was no way someone could leave the table, bet a few horses, then slip right back into his seat for his BB with almost ninja like quickness would surely tilt them. They'd be seen scratching their heads and muttering to themselves, " I can't believe I posted out of turn again!"

Then again, maybe a couple sessions at bodog and their "automatic/accidental post glitch" would toughen up these internet youngins. DUCY
