Answer 3

With online poker, the advantage if you are a new player is you dont have to worry about physical tells because you cant see the other players. Just play the cards and you can sometimes read into what others are doing. In a cardroom you have to play each player and your cards. You have to find their physical tells. Online is great cause you dont have to go anywhere but stick to the larger sites like Poker Stars or Absolute poker or you might get ripped off
