Hey guys I have only posted a few times on here but I had to jump back on and brag a little. I am a little better than a break even player online...i might make 50 bucks for 10 hours of play online....nothing really...however when I go to the casino I mop up....why are players there so bad? Anyone know? I have made close to 12k the past 3 months in tunica....and by no means do I consider myself a good player. Decent yes...but I have played with far better...If anyone goes to a casino and plays tight you will make money...sorry for the ramble just wanted to brag a little and tell you to get your ass to the casino and start making some real money. Also there used to be a guideline how to play SNG's at party but has anyone written a new one since they changed it? let me know...thanks

Did you know that participating in a poker forum can help you improve your own game? Be it by sharing experiences or simply asking for help, participation in a forum helps you focus and keep 'on topic' which will help you improve your game. You can learn from other players feedback and from their experiences. Why the THP poker forums? We offer one of the best managed texas holdem poker forums available, and the community within is far more friendly than those typicaly found on other sites.

I don't think that they're necessarily "bad" players. A great deal of information is more readily available for a player during a live game. You'd be amazed at the tells most players have, especially those that play mostly online. They haven't learned to control them because you don't have to have a stone face while sitting in your PJ's in front of a computer.
I think you're getting good reads on these players which is why you clean up at the casinos. I have had the same experience to date. I pretty much break even or make a little here and there online, but I normally make 10+ times my buy-in when I hit the casino. These players aren't all bad, they're just not used to having to mask their tells.
Also, I find a lot of players in casinos are tournament players sitting at a cash table. Tournaments and cash games require two different strategies. You can tell the ones who strictly play tournaments but want to try their hand in a casino. There's not much better than sitting down at a NL cash table with a bunch of tournament players. Payday!
Congrats on your run, by the way. Keep it going.

I have played online and live for the last 4 years or so. When I started, online players were very weak. I now find that online players are better than what I see in casinos.

I’ve experienced the reverse but I think it's down to geographical influences.
