Y is it russians constantly make final tables on stars yet in major live tounement you rarly see them i just wrote this in chat on stars and got a warning but it makes me wonder how they can smash it online yet in major live events you rarly see them at the top monny places
Yeah, it's a number's game. Most players on stars are from Russia, Europe or Asia I think. Russians do play looser than than most so they stand out a bit more. They have a lot of calling stations and aggro donks but there's also a lot of good Russian players. It's just hard to know which one is a donk and which one is not

hi mate hope you are doing well at the poker tables and having fun in general and so on, i could say Russians winning more tournaments could be a coincidence as there are more Russians in this world , population wise compared to other countries so it makes sense for them to be more visible at the tables and so on, so anyway good luck again have fun and hopefully make a lot of money mate ,cheers peace out mate !

Coz its not a freeroll for them to bomb it like the donks they usually are, and its ton of them at PS, so that's why u don't see them on any of the major tournaments, coz frankly, most of them are donks, and i know lot of russians at least the ones that understand poker will agree with me

Not sure what the population of Russia is but I think it is probably double or triple of most other European countries and probably close to 10x the population of Holland so I think we just notice them more. I always see more of Romanian players which is surprising as it is such a small country but they must just love online poker!!
