Online Poker Players Are Better

Annette Obrestad - winner of WSOPE 2007, during a session with PokerNews reporter after Aussie Millions 2008 answered that "technically they are much better player".

As a new player without much poker experience, playing freeroll is key. Freeroll is a tool that can be use as a leverage against other better players. Freeroll is a tournament format, which means you will be playing a few hundred hands each time you enter a freeroll tournament. Each day that you played freerolls will accumulate to a few thousand hands a week.

Although you do get beaten from time to time, and if that happens, take a break and come back with a vengence.
