online and live

[byronkincaid]

How come Annette_15 wins every MTT she plays then?

I dont understand.

according to officialpokerrankings she's played 771 tourneys at Stars in the last 4 months with an ROI of 144% and 311 at Tilt with an ROI of 104%.

I wouldnt like to say tbh, I have a few decent live scores but am pretty inexperienced when it comes to live poker. I probably give off a boat load of tells that im not aware of, lol.

Most live multi's have bad structures, thats a fact, and a good players edge is reduced when the stacks are very shallow. IN the big buy in comps tho, with 10k chips and 1hr min clock, I think the good players have a pretty big edge. Once again tho, the nature of tournaments mean  that at some point you are gonna need to win races, and that is jst plain luck, nothing else. However the majority of the tournament, from say 300 players down to 30 allows for players to play post flop when good players really press home their superioty IMO.

Clear winner - Post of the Week.

Live is a lot easier, the standard is generally a lot poorer because the games are filled with Roulette players.

people tend to play a bit better live than they do online

 

im a roulette player actually,and i know a few more wheel/poker players,ali mallu,mad turk,chicken joe,im sure you wouldnt want these guys on your table?

Ali Mallu & Mad Turk - I would play Cash Games with these guys 7 days a week, given the time! They'd bust me, mind....

this may sound very harsh.,.,but you know all the people who play mt sattalites to get to bigger events online.,(to play  live).,..,.,where do the come, when it gets down to the live action? okokokok,,,the odd one slips through the net and wins one big comp now and again but in genral i think the winners of the big comps either comes from live mt satalites or from buying there way into these big comps,this is not just my view on it,this is the view of a lot of my mates too,theres only one guy in my eyes who has had quite a big sucsess at this and its paul jackson,but how come he dont win more live than he did online? micky wernick does he play much online ?
i dont know one player in the country who have dominated both online and live,does anyone???
what im trying to say is think that online players are totally diffrent from live players,
show me one top internet player that has dominated live play too.,.,

Patrick Antonius? Decimateed an EPT field after arriving 5 hours late, even ran deep in the highly specialised WSOP $50,000 HORSE.

Paul Jackson - his "Live" record is excellent considering how few Live Events he plays. (Remember Monte Carlo Millions...).

Many others, too. But generally, yes, Online & Live are different disciplines, & few do both at the very highest level.

My Dream Tourney Table would include Mad Turk, Ali Mallu, & you, Mr S King. My "style" (such as it is) works perfectly against such players, & we can & should all adapt to the game-type of our opponents. Loose aggressive maniac versus tight aggrerssive donkey works surprisingly well.

JP, stuart fox

Paul wasicka, played almost exclusively online before wsop sucess, then played very well on high stakes poker recently

Jonny 'bad ip' lodden

Brian 'sbrugby' Townswend

Cliff ' Jonnybax' Josephy

Im sure there are many more but these are the guys that came into my head right away. The online tournament fields are very very strong these days in the big buy comps. The daily $100 rebuy on stars probably has a stronger field than any festival side event, and is comparable to a £1k buy event in terms of quality of player. The transition from online to live is a lot easier than vice versa, and a lot of guys, well people I know dont really see it as all that different and dont want to put each discipline into a box like you seem to want to sofa.

Just because he is letting me stay this week,

cardiff's very own rudders as well, does equally as good live and online

rudders has never ever played live cash mate.,.,
im not just on about tournaments.,.,im on about all games in genral

i know online to call someone on the river with the second nuts for say £2k is a lot easier
 than calling them live with the second nuts for £2k.,.,..,,.
