It has been mentioned several times on here and I will bring it out once again.

On-Line Play Versus Live B&M Casino playing.

Two different animals, same game-yes, but two different animals with 2 different sets of influential factors and the B&M has numerous ones added the on-line avenue does not encounter.  Can work to the positive or the negative aspect as well.

I outlined most in a thread, click on ****(Psst. It is not Spam or a 'Bad Link')****

http://betselection.cc/alrelax's-blog/visions-interpretations-feelings-bankrolls-etc/

I will give an analogy as well: 

On-Line Gambling Vs. B&M Live Casino Gambling is about the same as gaming with Xbox or any other gaming console/device in your own living room Versus going to a full arcade with the redemption counter for the kids.  I watch my kids in the living room and then I watch them at the large arcades with the redemption ticket counters.  LOL, same things but two entirely different atmospheres, styles and influential factors.

So, when you answer and you write remarks if you are a on-line gambler, be aware their is a huge and vast difference in the venues, huge.  Thanks.

Gambling doesn't need physical smartness or even presence these days. It only needs a strategy. With the advent of technology it is very easy to play online at your own pace, convenience and privacy. Bet when you feel like and not forced to do while sitting on the table people gazing at you. Those who can not play online or play with money that they can not afford to showcase for tax purposes are forced to play in casinos.
I never feel like gambling in a real casinos unless accompanied with my acquintance/partner as it is quite boring. I like to play on big LED screen sitting on my couch or even bed having only a small mouse to place bets and at times on my laptop or even smartphone/tablet.
                      Comparing it with real driving and simulation or playing soccer game on mobile and real field game or anything alike is a bit silly, in my opinion. Placing chips on table with hands or with mouse is no different, in my humble opinion, knowledge and belief.

There are no merits or 'win' here, but I will say something now after hundreds of answers I have read from you.  And, this is in my opinion and my opinion only, not the boards or admin's, etc.,  You only chastise and attempt to be everything and know everything beyond reality.  You never have anything nice to say or complimentary about anything.  I wish you luck and multi millions in your account!  There really is no need for you to come on my threads and continue with your demeaning attitude, there I said it and publically say---those are my personal opinions and accusations, not on behalf of the board.  Thanks.......

I am in no way demeaning you but vice versa. If you see the Victor's thread appointing you as global moderator, I appreciated his decision and your capability and experience. Anyways, you want your topics to have zero answers and much more like daily jokes or announcements or you want any discussion over them too? I thought we are a discussion forum.

I was bringing the point out, with live casinos there are idiosyncrasies and other intangible events, personalities, influences and other things that are present and alive in B&M gambling and lacking in on-line gaming.  True, lots of people are influence one way or another in live gaming, be it positive or negative aspects of it. 

You are the one accusing me/others of being silly, and as well the hint of 'illegal' or not able to withstand scrutiny with having money show in their accounts, etc.   

I don't believe I said anything negative or mean about those engaging in on-line play.  I do wholeheartedly believe there are plenty of misunderstands between the two types of gamblers and some of their writings/understanding of each.  That was my purpose in the OP. 

[alrelax]

Numerous positive and negative aspects of live B&M gaming Vs. Online.

One of my downfalls at times is looking at that rack in front of the dealers with hundreds of thousands of dollars.  Winning a few thousand, $5k or $10k can only fuel a player's fire and thirst for more.  And a perfect analogy is my little boy playing an Xbox driving game in the living room and scoring better than I can Versus when he goes to the large live arcade and seeing those toys and goodies behind the counter that could be his for earning tickets from many of the machines. 

I will stop there, many will know what I am getting at.

[alrelax]

For clarity I will offer the following:

I do not believe I ever degraded or humiliated the 'on-line' gambler ever.  I might have said something being factitious about, 'bring it into the casino and see if you can win' or 'are you scared of a live atmosphere', or even saying that there is no need to on-line game, etc., etc.  All in fun.  I do not and seriously do not believe I ever called 'on-line gamblers' silly, foolish, backwards, or anything of the likes.  I don't believe I ever wrote and attempted to make 'on-line' gamblers feel as though they were foolish or needing to showoff or anything of the likes either. 

I have wrote that I do not gamble on line, and I don't for several reasons, one-I met some serious on-line owners back in Atlantic City, affiliated with on-line websites in the Caribbean.  I was told point blank they do and could manipulate the games very easily.  I also have no desire to game on-line.  I still find nothing wrong with it, if you enjoy it and that is your thing.

The whole point to my post was the direction of the member in answering or writing on the board, as I do believe that the two animals are of different nature with the live B&M casino having many more influences and idiosyncrasies contributed with it.

As far as the arcade analogy I gave, I don't believe it is silly.  Tell me an individual at his house in his living room whacking a shark on his head and scoring points is the same as that person in an arcade with his hand on an actual mallet whacking those suckers on their actual heads chalking up tickets for the redemption counter.  Tell me a kid throwing his arms up in the air and jumping up and down, running out of breath caused by the same games close in nature and the ones on Xbox or brands where that same child sits hour after hour without saying a word or moving an inch are the same or better off inside his house.  Better off meaning, having a 'better time' or 'a better experience'. 

I was referring to atmosphere, styles of play, influential factors, reasoning, camaraderie, exposure to technique and various styles, etc., etc.  The second thing would be, where the member is coming from within their answers and reasoning to a certain point on this board.

In reviewing the presentment by the member, quite possibly there is no need for the movie theater--we all can watch the exact same movie at our house in the privacy and comfort of our four walls, cheaper popcorn, cheaper soda, cheaper hot dogs and no driving.  As well, there is no need for the commercial restaurant either, we all can cook in the privacy and comfort of our kitchen.  There is no longer a need for the traditional college or other schools, we all can actual learn on-line just as well and certainly concentrate and get in a bit less trouble, LOL. 

Sorry the member got me side-tracked, this was never supposed to be about the merits or the reasoning for playing 'on-line' or in a live B&M casino.  This was supposed to be about the mind frame, believes and influential factors form the members in relationship to their posts or answers to the others.

I do not discount the 'tons of advantages' to on-line gaming.  However, I wanted to bring out the members frame of mind and where they are coming from in their postings.  I do feel at times a member has a completely different idea/response/experience being conveyed---depending on which side of the fence, on-line or live casino, they are coming from.

The post was not to compare the two or place advantages/disadvantage to either.  Or, which is better, etc. 

Strictly was trying and apparently, unsuccessfull to pull out the frame of mind Vs. posts-answers here from each type. 

[21 Aces]

I will say if the house is quiet and low energy, you have to drive the energy.  Last night was very difficult because there apparently was a totally hottt party that some of us were not invited to.  STILL, opportunity was popping off everywhere.  But most players get used to certain conditions...

What is the name of the online house, please?  Just looking...

ALSO.  Have you been to NAGAWORLD in Cambodia?  It looks nice.  Thanks.

[Ted009]

21 Aces, I know you did not ask me directly about Nagaworld, but I will answer your question. I have been to Nagaworld a few times here. It is not bad. It is pretty crowded everytime I go there.
