p-stars vs. f-tilt PLO 6-max quesitons

[tekmo7]

i have some stars vs. tilt inquiries about the PLO 6-max games ($100, $200, and $400)

- which games are juicier?
- why does stars max the pot at the exact dollar value whereas tilt maxes the pot slightly above the pot size? does it make a difference in strategy?
- which site do you prefer?

thanks

FT considers the rake to be in the pot when limiting pot size. Stars considers the rake to NOT be part of the pot.

Quickly on this subject, does Stars have a better advertising presence in Europe or something? It seems like the hold'em games at Stars are all tighter and the PLO's tighter there at night, but the PLO day games (daytime in America) are significantly better at Stars vs. Full Tilt. Has anyone else noticed this or did I just imagine it?

You are definitely not imagining it. I play almost exclusively during the daytime.

There's barely any full tilt advertising in europe afaik, only in poker magazines. Stars and party sponsor lots of tv poker shows and sports events, so all the noobs go there, generally.

Lots of FT ads in Norway, FWIW. Haven't seen one PS (except the
sponsored TV shows), and PP have some commercials as well

I've only noticed things being a bit tight the pastfew nights on Stars. For the most part the games at night are fully of plenty of excitable players. Even if there aren't many, it only takes one at a table to bleed him dry (ie guaranteed buy-in).

Stars are much better known in Europe, they sponsor the EPT, etc. Both sites' advertising budget and brand visibility are dwarfed by the big bookmakers, though, who mostly have skins on the smaller Euro sites.
