converting live sucess to online

edited March 2010 in Poker Chat

Hi guys,


Just about to start a £2.30 bounty hunter, half confident after another good night of live poker. However one quick question, i play online nearly every day again, but im still having trouble playing online despite winning alot or cashing on the live games.

So just a quick question can anyone offer me a little advice on transfering that sucsess over. Live play im far more loose and online im a little more passive but thats due to my sucsess not transfering over that well.

Thanks,

Don

    Scrap that question as i have now just won my first ever online tournament, feeling a little over the moon, although it was only 12 runners and £10 for winning and taking the captain of both the first table and final table out on the heads up's head. Feeling really good and although the heads up was a good one winning in the end with a flopped flush with KJ cant remember what my opponent had but it was also strong, was a good recovery but my opponent played well just didnt get a break when i hit a full house to become the chip leader.

    Well done to my opponent though who played very well taking a vast amount of heads (wouldnt actually be suprised if he got more prize money than me)

    Yea thats what made the differance, you stole my Royal though lol. I just seen your ace and thought i was walking. Really lucky, good cash and game for both of us. My 4th cash since 3 this morning, all have been heads up cashes, looking at only losing one of those heads ups, ive now sorted all of my Sky poker loses and still have BR to play reasonable sized tournaments.

    Glad i am now playing at a higher level though felt so much better.

    Beating live poker is like beating a man with one leg in an @ss kicking contest.
