Before anybody starts this isn't a moan at online poker or Sky Poker.

I'm winning in live poker but not doing so well online, is there any advice or suggestions as to why this is happening?

    Heres some actual advoce for you greggo. What you'll find is in live play most people are intent to try there best as they only get one shot where as online you can play multiple tournaments at once and therefore not value your tourny life as much. I mean, if you bust out its a case of jumping onto the next one so in general the play is looser.

    Also, dont underestimate the fact that people will call you down light knowing you cant see there face and they wont look stupid if there wrong!

    Good luck.

    Hi I play a game once a week turbo game one league has13 weeks the other17weeks,we usually have20-30 plus players ive nealy always finished in top5.we have around 40regestered players, but you no I've had a run unreal being miles in front on flop and turn and getting sucked out.then we try to c wat we r doing wrong and sometimes we think bout changing our game but I think just put it down to bad run and grind away.i once played a league which I was running away with we were playing 52 weeker yes thas right 52 weeks.we started wid 2700 chips 25-50 starting blinds. With bout4-5 weeks remaining they found out I was a traveller and band me. Still had presentation night I had the trophy but felt like I had it by default even tho I  Couldn't lose it.i class my self as a better deep stack player but I've won short stack games, my advice play your live game on here over a period of time youl get your results

    Good morning Peter27.
    It would be a great honour if you could partake in the @2.20 DEEPSTACK.
    No commission iam afraid, just love poker but i am not very good, so this is a cheap way that i can play the best players on Sky Poker.
    All the best

    Hey greggo all I can say is that the standard of live poker is truley awful compared to online, we no the standard is not the best on sky but there are still some top top players even at microstakes so therefore the game will be harder to beat over time, not taking anything away from your game btw mate, maybe you just need to pick your spots a little bit better, try reviewing your hand histories and seeing if you played bad in certain spots, im the most spewy player on the planet, so when I do check my HH I find countless mistakes that are costing me a ton of money, anyways hope u get it right mate gl........

    Perhaps move down, even though Sky is one of the softest sites going

    Sky 20nl probably = 200nl live

    I think the best person to answer this is yourself. It depends on so many factors your style of play, opponents play, type of games cash or MTT etc. I would start by reviewing HH. If like me you find that tedious there is software you can record tourneys on. I have it installed but haven't used it much Teddybloat uses it a lot.
