Default Live Poker Pros

I was just wondering, if there were any live poker pros anymore, that don't play online at all (other then tv pros). If so, I'd like to here from you and if you think it is easy, and if so, alot easier then online? I know I am asking alot of general questions, but if someone could give me their experience as an exclusively live poker player, that would be awesome.

Live poker pros under say 25/50NL that play 100% live do so because they are not good enough to beat online.

I can think of three but keep in mind just because they are Pro's doesn't mean they are good.

i think its pretty true that the people playing live for a living in smaller games haven't adapted to online games a large percentage of the time. i only say that because it's exactly what i did, i just happened to move around the time of uigea and was able to play live and never looked back. but am now looking back

yea i'm sure people playing 10/20 and 20/40 at commerce for a living are slumming it up because they can't adapt to online games. Also why would you want to have large sums of money in offshore gaming sites if you can avoid it.

I prefer playing live, and I'm successful at it note: not a pro). I don't earn anything close to what I can do two levels down playing a few tables online though.

this is far from the truth. still i'll admit i have a MUCH harder time beatin the .25/.50 @ fulltilt than i do beatin the 5/10 live anywhere in the world.

anyways i like playin live cos i can make more money b/c the games are softer. also i don't like keepin large amounts of money where it's not accesible to me (i.e. pokerwebsites).
