I prefer to play live because it's more fun, and it's also safer than playing online.

Live is better - reads and vibes beat fast online hands.

I like to play online, but I believe that the live experience, playing with people at the table is a thousand times better. Imagine our reactions and vibration in front of the players, not to mention the fairest game

I mean online there seem to be so many donc players that river you, sometimes I wonder if I'm not playing against house bots.

In my location, playing live is completely unprofitable, so I definitely prefer playing online. A big advantage of playing online is, of course, playing on multiple tables simultaneously.

Until now, I've only played online. I've never played live because my time is very limited. I really want to play live, but finding the time has been a challenge...

Online is very convenient, but real time games feel completely different. What do you like more and why?
I don't play live, I don't have that opportunity. But online gaming is a great alternative, and although live gaming and online gaming are very different, you can still enjoy the process in both cases.

In person is way more exciting and intense. but it is very slow if you have an edge for the moment and want to maximize returns

online poker allows players to enjoy their favorite game without leaving the comfort of their home.Online poker is designed for players of all financial levels. With micro stakes and low stakes, beginners can learn and practice without risking significant amounts of money.Live poker offers a transparent and carefully controlled environment. Players can see every aspect of the game, from the shuffling of the cards to the dealing, which reduces the chance of cheating or collusion.

Of course, live poker is unbeatable, but I prefer playing offline poker. You don't have to go anywhere, you can play at home, and you can play in different poker rooms with multiple tables. No one can see your emotions.

I play online because I play often at work, sometimes I play on my smartphone when I go on business trips and I play at home as well. I wouldn't have time for a live game.

As I have never played live, I will choose online pokerbecause I can play poker whenever I want.To be honest, I think if I played live , my opponents would read my game easily since I couldn´t control my nerves.
