play good poker. It doesnt take a lot to beat the live games, but to beat the online filt takes quite a bit work.

yeah a lot of live players make the mistake of jumping into similar stakes online as they play live. Some people say divide by 100 when playing online I think.


Please tell me you did not actualy sit down at $5/10 tables online? lmao

first you need to realize that you're not a good player compared to the online field

I highly doubt that any professional poker player would say "last week i made $ 960.00 off $250.00" to probe he is a good player.

but cool story , bro.

Imo..if you never play online then its better to start with lower limits to see clear picture how things going..
..without very large base of knowledge about poker things can get very complicated onlne .. :)

Divide by 10 is more likley.

100NL live = NL10 online i'd say.
