Playing poker online has its advantages. (Bodog Beat Image)

The last time I checked, the weather in Las Vegas was hot. Damn hot. I’m talking fry-an-egg-on-the-pavement hot. That should be reason enough to make the move to online poker, right? Well, here are 10 more reasons:

1. Live games require that you drive to a casino or poker room. You can play online from home.

2. You won’t give away any physical tells to your opponents online.

3. You earn VIP points that can be traded for tournament buy-ins and free stuff.

4. There’s always a cash game open for your bankroll size and preference.

5. If you bust out of a poker tournament there’s another one ready for you to buy-in to.

6. There’s tons of satellite action that will get you into big live and online events.

7. You can win hundreds of thousands of dollars every week in online tournaments.

8. You will chat with interesting players from all over the world.

9. You can lie to opponents with ease and they won’t be able to tell you’re misleading them.

10. Online play is faster; you can make more money during a session.
