I think online players like to think that big live games are equivalent to paltry limits online so that they can brag that they are good enough to beat the big live games. Of course, then they tell their friends that they don't have the bankroll for the big live games...

Of course, I could be FOS.

Having played high-limit live games and mid-limit online, my experience is that high-limit live games are *significantly* easier than mid-limit online games.

Some of the easiest games I've ever played in were the biggest games in the room, at the time.

That said, I've never played in the stratosphere. Biggest I've played live is 300/600 limit, and ~ 35/70 uncapped pot-limit (the blind amounts are odd due to currency conversion)

this question depends purely on where u play and at what time, there are plenty of live casinos globally where the higher no limit games are of an equal standard to the equivalent stake games online.
Having said that i do believe that people generally do put money in in live games in weaker spots, due a number of factors, number one imo being the fact that live is so slow so the temptation to play that K9 suited in early position, after 2 hours of looking down at 3 8 offsuit, is very real. Online multitabling the patience factor is almost erased, by the sheer volume of hands we can play.
Im pretty sure however that an online pro winning at say a 5 10 no limit 6 max game, would undoubtedly need months of practice in live full ring games before he became a big winner. As the skills required from live to multi tabling online are extremely different.
