Settling a debate, online vs. live skills

Conversely, I am a skilled online player who play s worse live. After playing with myself, i sense a part of that is because of the relatively slow play compared to online play where I am usually multi-tabling, and I get bored and start playing less quality starting hands and taking risks I might not take online.

FYP to correspond to my experience. Wait, part of that doesn't sound so good. Whatever. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I have a LOT more online experience (winning at 30/60) than i do live, and the above is/has been definitely somewhat true for me. I'm a small winner in live 6/12 to 10/20 games.

I think the other part of my problem live is that i give off tells left and right, and am not used to looking for them myself.

For example, a few weeks ago, I turned a nut flush in a 6/12kill game from EP, reached for chips, and then realized i should C/R. Too late, the others had already seen this and checked it around.

But i am paying attention to problems like that and am getting quite a bit better each time live.
