The only thing you can really do online is math. Seriously, the whole game boils down to a series of math equations when you play online.
Now if that's your thing then that's great, but a guy who can read other people at a live table is going to have a much greater edge than the online math whiz.
I've played tens of thousands of hands online, and like I said, to me it's like doing long division all day. Boring as all fuck.
So I gave up the online play and started playing live games exclusively, and focus most of my effort on reads and things like that, since you get to a point where the math is just second nature anyways.
