Default Why would I play at PS?

No rakeback, no bonuses. Why would someone play at PS? I don't play high enough limits that the points would do me any good. Shouldn't I just bonuswhore or at least play at a site which allows rakeback? I play 0.5/1$ and 1/2$ btw.

FPP is like rakeback. You can get gift cards.

You can turn FPPs into Amazon GCs, which you can sell on eBay at a small discount. But at .5/1 and 1/2, you're better off bonus whoring.

At micro limits, bonus whoring would be by far the best method to build a bankroll.

Why play at PokerStars? Well when you want to complain about their slow software and lack of incentives, they'll reply back quickly.

Good Customer Support < Free Money, RB, Software that doesn't pause five seconds for turn and river when all in.

But it's much more fun that way, especially when your set is beaten by the runner runner flush. Then you can start a new rigged thread.

micros = NO POKERSTARS

medium to high = pokerstars is nice. I 12 table the 6 max NL on there and the sotware is so easy to use that I can literally play 4,000 hands without a break.
