Re: Live Poker Pros
Python, he and I make sarcastic comments like that because of all the online players on this site who can't wait to talk about how great they are at .50-$1 NL online and how much everyone sucks live. We wouldn't care if this wasn't an everyday-of-the-week 2p2 notion. It's considered to be some sort of foregone conclusion on this site that online players are the greatest alive because 15% of you have had three live sessions where you saw someone overplay 99, and thus all live players SUCKKKKKKKK!!!!! For all those seven tablers who think it's so easy, try playing AJs UTG+2 in a full ring live 5/5 NL game. How about light three betting after a pop to $25 and three callers? GL with this play when you're on the real felt instead of Pokertracker number crunching.

Re: Live Poker Pros
Poker is a very diverse game. You can be a great stud player but not good at holdem. The same goes for online or live, some players are good at one but not the other. There are differances and whichever suits you best play that. There is no reson to hate people that specialize in one form of poker. The truly great player strive to become above average/winning at many forms of poker. Now cant we all just get along.

I would suspect you know as well as i do that a good poker player is going to win whether its live or online. There are more good players online and the huge fish generally play lower stakes online than they do live, this makes live games softer. It doesnt mean that someone who only plays live is bad at poker. It doesnt even mean that every winning player at .5/1 could beat 5/10 live. But im pretty sure the % of online pros playing .5/1 and 1/2 that could beat 5/10 live soundly is higher than the % of live pros playing 5/10 and lower that could beat .5/1 and 1/2 online. Why does the fact that live games are softer than online games have to be taken as a personal attack on winning live players? You guys arent the reason the games are so soft. |

Re: Live Poker Pros
Since the live games are so soft, wouldn't that mean by playing live a pro is just exercising good game selection? Just a thought to add fuel to the fire, I mean debate.

[/ QUOTE ] if i had to choose b/w 1 tabling online and playing live, i would play live obv, but multitabling online means you can have a lower winrate and still have a higher hourly rate |
