Live poker is interesting, I would like to try it, I think it has a great atmosphere, but in my case I prefer online.

I like both, but due to children and limited time, my current poker playing is focussed on online.

There are pros and cons to both. The advantages of live are that you can read tells better and recognise players. The disadvantage is that others are also watching how you play.

With online poker you get a lot of information from the statistics that are displayed for each player. It is also faster, you can play many more hands in the same amount of time.

I always liked live poker better than online poker.
Unfortunately, there are few opportunities to play legal games in Hungary.

it is completely different to play live versus online. I think it's better to play live.

sitting at a live poker table is a much better feeling than online

Online poker is better in india because live poker is legally allowed only in a few states like Goa and Sikkim, while most of the country restricts it. Online platforms provide easy access, convenience, and a variety of games, making them the preferred choice for players.

Online poker is easier, of course, but I've always wanted to play live. I played live once, but in a top tournament. I liked it, thanks 888 for that.

I would only ever play online. You would have to pay me a lot of money to even enter the door to a crowded poker room and I would never ever sit down at a table and play. Being around a big bunch of people is not exactly the way I would want to spend my free time.

For me, it's definitely online poker. But one day I want to play live poker, at least once.

For me, live poker is better, but it takes more time and effort, so I end up playing online more often.
