Comparing 100NL Online to 200NL at a casino

[projectaero]

Hey guys.
I just wanted to get your opinion on the pros and cons of each of these.

Online FTP
$.50 / $1 (100nl, not deep stack)
$100 Max Buy in
Bankroll to play this level at 30x max buy in - $3000

Casino

$1 / $2 No Limit 9 Max
$80 Max Buy in
Bankroll to play this level at 30x max buy in - $2400

I do know you get more hands playing online but you can spot the fish a lot easier in person and most players who try out poker at the casino are more so players having a good night and drinking.

What would the pros and cons be of both comparing the two as both cost roughly the same to play?

Variance is sick live.... v bad..... rake is killer...

it is a more agressive way to make money tho if you play tight agressive, play the big pots with the goods, rake wont be much of an issue

If you know all the answers why did you ask teh question?? i would be checking out your last statement in some detail

rake wont be much of an issue

$15 live is an issue . . . don't you think?

$80 max buyin is not 200NL. It is 80NL.

Also with the stack size overlap and better rake at 2/3, you should not be playing 1/2 at Crown.

not at $1-$2 i dont think rake is $15.
it depends how many pots you are in and what your win rate is at the time tho

[projectaero]

At 30x the maximum buyin at $80 works out to be $2400, so that is a good basis to be playing live at crown with and then when your up to say 6k then you can play $2-3

Crown Casino Melbourne
$1-2 - Max $80 (40BB)
$2-3 - Max $200 (66BB)
$2-5 - Max $1000 (200BB)

I think the max rake is 10% up to $15. 1/2 is shit at Crown Casino. Still not as bad as their Phase 1s though, $60 buyin and $15 of that is rake. Horrendous...

...it depends how many pots you are in.....

I suggest you learn about rake and the term MGR.
