I don`t think that playing in the internet easier than playing in offline casino. This is just different types of game. In online poker you don`t see the opponent, but the opponent doesn`t see you. That`s why you can concentrate on the game. And you don`t need to read the opponent, you spend all your time at cards. I think that it can be a problem to become offline player if you played only online before.
Well even these things make it possible in pookerstars.net, for me it is important and very realistic that at least faces could be seen, it is clear that here all privacy and anonymity would not exist, but I don't know, I think that the strategies between playing in online is one, and playing offline is another because there are more distractions, with online poker games it is easier to be able to concentrate as you say, the only way to persuade the remaining players is to make strategies regarding money, maybe Instead, bet more and make bigger bets so that the other players are afraid to bet, that is a strategy that can be applied and it is not necessary to see the gestures of the players.
This looks same something between online and offline poker. I`d prefer to play online without video. It is not about anonymity but about concentration. For me much easier to play so - it doesn`t matter what i wear, what i do, how i breathe, i can concentrate on cards and my strategy. When i play offline i begin analyze opponents more than cards, it becomes another game. I like it too, but i can`t fast change my strategy.
