i hate it when ppl take live tooo seriously

like the super 50

also

i dont understand when ppl playing cash dont make it enjoyable for fish like me.

thats a big reason why i dont play much live cash after tourneys.

Way too much of this happening, but then again there is money involved so its inevitable I guess.

I tell you what tilts me more than anything, some peoples incessant desire to talk about hands the whole time zzzzzzzzzzzzz  

Even worse are those that like to 'educate' others  idiot

I had one of these on my table yesterday. Abso full of shit and droned on. Even I got my headphones on but could still hear him because I don't have anything with music on to listen to.

Anyway he gets 5 bet by a kid who had dem aces and declares that he is folding QQ. He does a fancy muck with his cards but they hit the dealers hand and flop over revealing k 2 off. Smiley

never get bored playing live.
Also never read, listen to music or watch TV at the same time.
There's always something interesting happening at the table if you look close enough.

I find online much harder to focus on.

I'm currently grinding 6 MTT's with a bit of music in the background, no doubt will watch x factor/I'm a celeb later. My senses are currently fully stimulated  Grin

I am always happy to drive and play as many live tourneys as I can, but can never be bothered to fire up my Lappy anymore and grind it out online, always seem to find something else I would rather do. Hoping it changes though.

That's my point
playing live, I have no problem at all giving the game my full attention.
Online, I multi-task.
When I really focus online like I do live, I win more.
Struggle to do that though.

Always, then I fade it for 3-6 months think I'm missing something so go play, I sure am.

If you get a good table with people up for banter etc it can be good fun but that very rarely happens.

I actually have somewhat enjoyed playing live in the last couple of years, as I have basically retired from playing in the uk. The live poker I do play is when I am on holiday and the fact I am not familiar with the surroundings and often get into interesting conversations as I am the "foreigner" in the room adds to it.

The idea of grinding it out at home is a false economy, given it is all about the hourly nevemind the various tilting things about live poker.
