Default Re: Live or online tournaments which is more profitable?

[ QUOTE ]

LIVE GOOD
15-30 min rounds
ONLINE BAD
9-15 minute rounds

A 10 minute round online is very close to a 20 minute round live. More importantly most live structures, especially at lower (sub $100) buy ins, are very fast many times doubling each round. Online the rounds are generally much more gradual (e.g. 10/20->15/30 instead of 10/20->20/40). To make matters worse I've seen many live tournaments start you with less than 50bb, whereas online tournaments generally start at 50-75. When it comes to structure, online wins hands down.
