Stars games suck now

That is simply not true.

Sure it is.

I'm playing the $22s right now and am clearing 10FPPs per SNG, which takes about 75 minutes. I would be making more than double that if I were playing $2/4.

I agree you can rack up lots of FPP's playing lots of sng's, but I highly doubt you'd earn less than 10 FPP's in 75 minutes of 2/4

he means he'd be making more than double at 2/4.

I have to agree with the people who say its softer. I don't think PP and PS calculate their average table stats the same for pot size.

There are many donkolicious players on stars right now unfortunately when they're raising into their gutshots they're making them

For what it's worth, I had my best single-day ring game results yesterday on Stars 3/6. Despite what a quick look at the stats would say, the tables were not filled with very good players.

Running well != Good games.

Shockingly, my analysis of my opponents' play can go beyond what my results are. These games aren't Party good, but they're not exactly filled with fearsome players either.

From the perspective of Party softness, there is no doubt in my mind that the Party 5/10 limit games have softened noticably. I assume this is due to TAG's migrating to Stars. Unfortunately, it hasn't yet turned into profits for me. Here's hoping, Mahogany17

i've been playing the 5/10 to 10/20 games on stars and they seem to be as good as the party games.

i've only been playing on stars for a couple of weeks now, though. i'm assuming the games will get tighter.

I played 2K today. The games seemed fine to me. 5/10 looked a little tight around 11pm so I started replacing the 5/10 tables with 3/6 ones for the last hour I played.

Lots of college kids just got a lot of money that they didn't work for and (many) have nothing to do for the next week or two besides watch tv, eat dinner with mom and dad, and play poker when they go to bed.

At the micro/lower limits you have lots of college kids with limited experience that are "gambling hard" with 100 bucks. This makes games good. At the 2/4 and up you have a lot of college kids who have made money/broke even at poker, know what they are doing, are multitabling TAGS, and since they just heard about stars VIP program and because the idea of free [censored] is cool, decided to try out stars.

This is just my theory.

In March I would love to see numbers on stars from Dec 20th - Jan 15th compared to stars from Jan 15th-Feb28th, and then compared with stats from Nov 1 - Dec 20th. Since I don't play stars much anyway because I like my all black party background, I couldn't do this myself.

I actually moved from party 10/20 to stars 3/6 for the day for the sole reason of joining the VIP club.
