The second difference is you won't be forced to play on just one table, muck when you go to the restroom between hands, or tip the dealer.

Which starting hands should you be playing in Texas hold’em and why does it matter? One of the most common mistakes new players make in Texas hold’em is playing too many hands. Players realize that “any two cards can win” and want to see a flop no matter what cards they hold. In free Texas Holdem games, you can afford to do this, but in real money
games, it will be costly.
However, the reality is that for one, most flops miss most hands so even seeing flops and then folding can be costly. Furthermore, a bad hand risks catching a small piece of the flop, making it tempting to continue on with a second best hand.
