After spending hundreds of hours in both finding online casino casinos and live casinos, there are various differences between the two despite playing the same game. Here are several of the nuances I’ve noticed.
Online players are a lot easier stronger stake for stake
Normally the smallest live game you’ll find in a casino is $1/$2 ($200NL). This really is where all of the beginners start. Online, the normal games may be as small as $0.01/$0.02 ($2NL) where there is not much money to be made. That means 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 many times I have been talking to live players talk about how online players do not determine what they’re doing. They will say aspects such as “you can’t read his face” or “online players don’t know-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 don’t consider big blinds, they only consider chips. What I mean by that is if by way of example, at a $1/$2 game, somebody raises $6, many players will think “oh that is just 1 red chip” rather than thinking of 3 big blinds. For anyone who is going to come in for a raise in a live game, you are going to 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 is certainly not for balance. Very often, for anyone who is 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 cannot tell you how often times I have been called by 22-77. Many dead money inside this spot.
