because of the lucky draws they get constantly,i dont get to the final table much,there for my poker player stats go down hill. when i feel i play superior than the stats state.how about you?
Answer:
From reading this it's probably the case that you're overplaying your hands, and some of this might be improper strategy and some might be frustration. For example players to push too much and only have a minor edge against some “inferior″ hands will regularly be hitting the road because of “suckouts.” For example if you go all in with a 60/40 edge twice you're going to be going out 64% of the time and it doesn't require anything other than normal probability on the part of your opponents to do it. In addition folks tend to feel entitled to win each hand when they have a “better″ starting hand and start playing badly when they don't.
The bottom line is that the quality of your play and the luck part are two entirely different things and if you play your best you will do your best and over time your luck or the luck of your opponents has nothing to do with it. As for the suckouts the fact people win these hands is the ONLY reason you can make money at poker because if everyone played well everyone would lose other than the home with the rake.

Answer:
Online poker and live poker are fundamentally the same game. Sure, the players are worse online, but it's up to you to adjust to your opponents. Whatever game you play, live or on the internet, you have to adjust to your opponents. If you can win live you can win on the web. If you're not than you're doing something wrong.

Thats what I though initally but the massive diffrence is how much you rely on your abilty to read opponets. Live play you got a lot more information to work with. You can tell if people are neverous
Answer:
Online poker isnt real poker. Why do you think that 99% of on the web players never make it far in LIVE tournaments. On the internet players arent very good at poker. They live by the motto “Better to be LUCKY then GOOD”.
Online you will constantly see them calling, even if they only have 1 out (ie: a Gutshot Straight) till the river, even if there are 2 Aces on the board and your holding AK. They do constantly get lucky on the web, and thats were it kills the actual skilled players. You dont see it much in the higher $$$ games, but you’ll see it occasionally.
Good Luck
