L5CD - pokerstars vs pokerroom/ongame
 

I have played my whole draw career to date on Pokerroom/Ongame, and made a steady profit. Last night I stuck most of my BR onto Stars because a) I want to dabble in PLO8 as well and b) there was an ok reload bonus there. I justified cashing out my "draw bankroll" from ongame because there are draw games at stars.

My first reaction is that the games seem much tougher at Stars. The play at the 2/4 level (which I consistently beat at Ongame) was reminiscent of at least a 3/6 ongame table, and even the 1/2 tables were less fishy. Is this representative, or did I pick them at a bad time?

Any thoughts appreciated.

You are 3 months too late [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I'm a regular 24hPoker, WinaMax (ongame) and PokerHeaven Draw player (mainly PL)and has begun to play at Stars since the introduction of the game. I find that the LVL has significantly increased and tables are much harder to beat (i play PL 0.5/1 and PL 1/2). Ongame still the easiest ones.
The LVL on Stars SNG 10$ 20$ has increased as well (when you have the chance to fill up a table [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] )

LVL?
On average, the draw games on PokerStars are usually tough,
especially if you compare them with games at other sites
such as PokerRoom or IPN (Celeb Poker, etc.).

Still, the draw games on PokerStars are sometimes soft
because there are still a few loose dollars at some of the
tables, but nowhere like the draw games on week one (when
PokerStars first had draw above $0.5-$1).
