Title: Live cash vs Online Cash
Post by: Graham C on April 09, 2007, 06:49:53 PM
Is playing cash live better/easier than playing online?   To many donks seem happy to ship it in with nothing online despite missing flops and I'm wondering if it's less like this live as you can't hide behind the internet.

Why is that a bad thing?

Well I prefer to play live cash dealers choice but there are plenty of donks online ready to reload, but in saying that plenty of people pull back up in live  cash games too

Thankfully it's more like that making it easier to beat.

because they keep beating me!   I'm not a fan of this "that's what you want in the long term" talk, I'm a fan of finishing each session up :D  I'm not a big cash player so when 7T off suit calls my preflop pot raise and then hits two pairs beating my QQ, I get a bit miffed.......even if I did bookmark him for a later date ;)

Anyway, it's not about that, I'm tempted to join in the £25 cash game after a tourney at the Western Club one day but don't want to be taken to the cleaners, I can get taken there at home :)  I may wait a bit longer though, although it's a £25 table, that's the minimum sit down so I guess people buy in with nearer £100?

I'll try it one day I'm sure.

Thankfully it's more like that making it easier to beat.

Maybe I'll play tighter :dontask: 

Maybe I'll give it a miss!

From what I've seen in Britain and Vegas the standard is generally better online than live for equivalent stakes.  Although saying that I think people are more likely to be drunk playing live.
