I've been playing poker live for roughly 10 years (profitable over that time-frame). I don't feel like writing a ton of background info on my style, my bankroll, number of hands seen. I'm a solid 2/5 live nlh / plo player. Besides being at an bad-beat table on lock poker and getting about 5K pay-out (which took like 9 years to process, F lock poker), I don't think I have ever booked a win online post black Friday...these are my reasons....

No sites are poker only anymore - I get bored online - don't play the same - don't feel like I can "read" ppl besides maybe bet sizing online, and I love that aspect of live poker - I'll get drunk and bet sports (I never drink when I play live) - I'll get drunk and play blackjack (I never drink when I play live)

Anyone else feel they will never win online? I mean I don't even try to play online anymore, because I know I'll just blow the money ... Would love to commiserate

I feel like I'm setting myself up to get smoked by a veteran 2p2 guy with this post, but hey, it was on my mind and I haven't posted in a while.

Thoughts!?

its a completely different game than live poker so if you approach it the same it makes sense that you lose. online is much more math oriented and very less feel oriented. i also win in person and lose online often, but every now and then ill win an online tourney
