Appreciate your replies. (Going nuts playing online 😀 )

A good live game is more comparable to $5 PLO.

I've played more NLH and a good 1/2 or 2/5 live game can be much easier than $0.01/0.02 online. But of course you are getting in very very few hands.


Yeah a lot of $2/$5 live games are softer than say 25nl. I would imagine this could be even more extreme in PLO

Skills are different. Live reading people and having a good poker face are important. Online you are facing bots and humans using RTA so a very different game.

I think this is why most regs are significantly weaker in a live environment.

If you're an online reg you're regularly playing against bots and humans using RTA.


Whats RTA?

Whats RTA?

Real-Time-assistance. For example the software gives you the correct gto solved lines while you play. It is obviously cheating
