Online swings can be brutal, on the other hand live poker ties up more money per session. Do you use separate bankroll rules for online poker vs. live poker games? What buy-in limits or stop-loss rules do you use to avoid tilt?
Fast tables and multi-tabling can push players into loose habits. How do you control hand selection, especially when playing online? Do you use preflop charts or self-imposed rules to stay disciplined during long sessions in online poker games?

Online poker is faster and more math driven, while casino poker is slower and more psychological. What adjustments have worked for you? Do you tighten up and bluff less, or focus more on reading players and betting patterns?
