Online Poker vs Live Poker.
Although No-Limit Hold’em and all other poker variations have the same rules and strategy principles both live and online, there are still some major differences. That you should know at UFABET.
While I wouldn’t go as far as saying they’re completely different games, a live player trying their hand online (and vice versa) could be in for quite a surprise.
The goal of this article is to emphasize some of the biggest differences between live and online poker games. Which should make the transition easier.
1. Live Games Tend To Much Softer At Comparable Stakes
If you’ve play or higher stakes online, or heard the stories about it, you’re probably aware these games are tough.
Here you’ll find dedicated grinders. Who know the strategy and don’t make many mistakes. Beating online cash games at these stakes requires a lot of work of the tables.
2. Live Games Move At A Much Slower Pace
Online players are used to playing several tables at once and seeing hundreds of hands per hour.
With live games, you are limited to just one table, and the pace of that table will also much slower than any online game you’ve ever play.
You can expect to see only 30-40 hands an hour at most live games. There are several reasons for this.
3. Reads Can Play An Important Role In Live Games
One of the biggest differences between live and online poker is the presence of physical reads in the former.
While some people think poker tells are overrated, I tend to disagree.
I’m not saying that live reads are the most important part of poker strategy, but they can be quite significant in large pots.
Many recreational players give away a lot of information about the strength of their hand, so if you put enough attention into it, you’ll be able to figure them out.
Some slam chips when bluffing. While others only talk when holding a strong hand or do something else that gives away information.
