does anyone actually study poker seriously while playing
Live room “studying” with the phone out is mostly theater. Same energy as people pretending the high hand promo is part of a disciplined strategy. It isn’t, it’s just glitter on a folding chair. If i’m playing live, i’m watching who suddenly wakes up in early position and who only splashes around when there’s a promo on the board. That’s the useful bit. Online, sure, you can review and track cleanly. Live? Half of them are texting, the other half are composing memoirs.
