I'm pretty sure it's fake. I know this because six people asked for stars support for the converter..and then I made it happen the next day but nobody cared.

While the party games are still beatable, there are numerous other decent high stakes players and 2p2ers there. I actually didn't sit down at two 215s tonight during my 2 hr set given the opposition (4 decent players, as much as I want to fight with them to break even with rake, no thank you). I don't know how the high stakes games are at Stars however.

If you play the turbos, you get a discount on every game. At the 15's, it's 33%, at the 25's it's 20%. Then (at gold level) it's another 16% from the VIP program. It comes out to .83 less per game, for the 25's. Equiv. to 33% rakeback.

Q for Pary people - is VIP $ deducted from your MGR?

Stars $16s are rigged. You don't even want to think about playing them. Higher, its even more rigged. You're better off staying wherever it is you are, Paaaateeee Pooookaaaaa.....baba ba ba ba ba ba ba ...........

Happy birthday, PVS!

I have recently switched to Pokerstars full time. I prefer to play against good players that respect my raises.

I'm convinced the RNG program is gaffed. They only hire the best and brightest coders there, so I wouldn't be surprised.

Besides, the games absolutely suck. Bang your brains out for six months there and get back to me.

I don't play Party either. Every crook in the world is playing there. It would be a revelation if tech support knew a flush beat a straight. Games look ok though, just gotta be really careful and I wouldn't dream of touching anything bigger than $109.

Lower rake %, equal amount of [censored] players

I also like/am accustomed to the blind structure

I can't believe so many people play stars...the software is soooo sloooow.... I could win a hand, get up and fix a drink, call my mother, and take short nap before the chips move towards me.

for ring games party is easier but sng structure is nice on stars. the players up until the 200s arent THAT much better than on party and the software and support cannot be beaten. friend ofm ine was in the pp 500k, posted the bb twice in A ROW on the same table and nothing ever got fixed. i cannot handle party support and their software freezes on a consistent basis.
