    Default Comparing 100NL Online to 200NL at a casino

    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?

    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

    $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.

    it depends how many pots you are in and what your win rate is at the time tho

    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...

    I suggest you learn about rake and the term MGR.
