After spending hundreds of hours in both online casinos and live casinos, there are lots of differences between the two despite playing the exact same game. Here are some of the nuances I have noticed.
Online players are much stronger stake for stake
Normally the normal live game you can find in a fantastic casino online is $1/$2 ($200NL). This really is where all of the beginners start. Online, the normal games can be as small as $0.01/$0.02 ($2NL) where there is just not much money to be made. That implies beginners in live casinos are playing for way bigger stakes than online. Online Players playing $200NL are generally very strong.
Live low-stakes players generally don’t have a clue
Can not tell you how often times I’ve been talking to live players talk about how online players don’t determine what they’re doing. They’ll say things like “you cannot read his face” or “online players don’t understand how to bluff and keep a straight face” – stupidness, really. Many live players do not understand the concept of frequencies and betting patterns, which in fact are much more informative than “his lip twitched when he reached for his chips” or whatever
Raising 3x the bb preflop doesn’t do anything
Many live players do not consider big blinds, they only consider chips. What I mean by that is if for instance, at a $1/$2 game, somebody raises $6, many players will think “oh that’s just 1 red chip” rather than thinking about 3 big blinds. If you are going to come in for a raise in a live game, you certainly will probably want to raise between 6-8bb, at least in the $200NL live game.
Very little 3betting in live games
Most players in a live setting are way more content to just call a raise as oppose to 3bet, even with big hands like AQ and AK – and it’s certainly not for balance. On a regular basis, when you are 3bet in a live game, the player will probably have QQ+ (weak players)
Live players think pocket pairs are the nuts.
In a live game, players have a very hard time folding pocket pairs preflop for some reason. I have 3bet with hands like AQ+ and can not tell you how often times I have been called by 22-77. A lot of dead money in this particular spot.
