I was just wondering if enyone on here played live tournaments only for a liveing. And if so where,what buy ins, how many tournaments a week, and what win rate?

Live MTT's are long, grueling events with obviously big payoffs. Most professionals play cash games (either live or online) or online MTTs inbetween the live events that are worth going to (Big ones, with lots of fish from the $5 satellites on stars). If you win one big event per year, your basically a poker god. Winning these events are hard. I doubt anyone would bother playing them exclusively as the variance is so large.

So to answer your question simply:

No.

Um....

If you can excel at live games you should be able to excel at online poker. Do you have an internet connection?

I thought on-line was generally accepted as tougher than live. Or are you suggesting that since he's good live he is also capable of beating on-line?

I do agree however, that you should play on-line. It will help round your game, make you better at picking up betting patterns, and generally give you more experience faster. Plus, many of the better people you'll face will be experience on-line so it will give you a window into how they think.

Well ive never realy tried online tournys. Im only good at tournys my style is not good in the long run for live play. I tried to put money in an online acount once and had a real hard time then my bank decided they didnt want to pay the site so it when to colecions and I have to pay it back. Eny sugestions no what sites have good tournys or a more reliable way to put money in an acount? I would say that 1/2 my game is the ability to read people well and I cant see that happening online thats one reason I havent made it a priority. Eny input is apricated.
