Oh, come on... you can get in almost 5% as many hands in live play as you can online, assuming you multitable. And don't forget the increased rake!
I still enjoy playing lie FROM TIME TO TIME, but for any serious player, online is where the money is at, IMO. The sheer volume of hands you can play is reason enough to play online, and nothing else can make up for that. |

Eh blow me
 You guys think online players are bad, but believe me, the loose fish at the live tables are much much worse. I realize you dont get in as many hands, but the amount you can win off bad plays is sick (sicker than most online tables). I mean any time you regularlly have 6-8 players seeing an unraised flop, and 4 players seeing a raised one, you know some ppl r donating money. As for rake, $5 for a half hour isnt bad IMO Two examples from tonights play -I had a player bet into me with A6 on a 356 board in a limp pot $25. I raised to 75 with the nuts (74), he reraised to $425 all in with A6 (the fact that he turned a 5 and rivered a 6 is irrelivant) - I raise UTG with AA to $30. 1 call, then the BB reraises $100 ontop. I reraise to $300 total (another $170) and this player pushes all in for roughly $900 with QQ

I don't see how hand 2 is badly played unless you are the biggest nit in the world.

I cant possibly call that bet unless he's beat -- also three betting UTG from a BB reraise light is pretty dangerous IMO. If he thought he was good the line was to call and act on the flop

I know that live poker is softer than online, but those two examples weren't that bad. Search for GimmeNutz on Full Tilt playing 3/6 or 5/10 NL on a nightly basis, he'll probably be there and do something far more retarded than those two examples.

That guy redefinied "bad" when I was doing a lot of datamining a couple of months ago. Like, we're talking SCARY bad. He must be absolutely loaded in the real world. Like, a rich doctor or lawyer or something. No normal person can afford to lose as much as he does week in and week out.
The waiting lists for his tables always make me chuckle. |

He isnt a rich doctor in fact he isnt a he at all. I have come to the conclusion that this is the ex wife of a rich doctor or lawyer who has nothing better to do with the alamoney other than pad another players bankroll

That happens online too - about 10x as frequently (multitabling, faster games, etc), in fact.
