Is it harder to make money while playing for real money then when playing for play money?

Is the level different? Like every player is a pro, whereas in play money no-one is?

My comment deserved it's own thread?

Ok, here's my justification.

Poker is about risk assessment. If there's no risk, there's no game. The same goes with playing small stakes, but to a lesser degree, as a lot of people will be a hell of a lot more willing to bet/call when there isn't real money on the line.

There is no comparison between the play money tables and the real money tables. The real money players on Party tend to be horrible but they are not as ridiculous as the play money players.

Sign up for a poker room that has $0.05/0.1 if you want to just practice or see how it goes, better than playing for play money where no one really cares.

The play money games aren't realistic at all when trying to figure out what your win rate would be.

They basically just get you comfortable with the program's interface and flow of the game.

Start at the micro limits in real money and play supertight for awhile until you figure things out.
