I too am really starting to hate them,really thinking of just quitting playing there...but we will see,I may stick around for the million dollar freerolls,if they truly are freerolls,with no requirements,I really prefer party poker or 888,I also like the Ya poker,good times there .
I have been so disappointed with there promos,lately,like the Christmas calendar promo,was so disappointing,a lot smaller sites had better promotions then they have had. Since they have been sold,its just gotten bad,going so far as to take things from there players that have earned the benefits their play has gotten them,under the old owners,I think everybody is starting to see the changes there making are all about maximizing there profits,while charging more just to play at pokerstars. I my eyes pokerstars has changed it's focus from,players too profits,I think we could agree that under the old owners,things were about the players,and yes of course making money too,but not so at the expense of the players,like it is today. That's just my thought on pokerstars lately.

You have more options, if you cant stand that site. And the sites available are still good ones. Party has good offers, besides the technical problems they always have Many members here also say that 888poker is a good one.
Hey kids, this is what happen when you play with money that you cannot afford to lose so I hope you will listen to daddy Calmplay and never do it as that's what you will say after and people will tagged you not good names...

hello there my mobbit friend Indo36m whatever... you should be aware of the following:
1. never mess with mofos 2. never mess with flashfaust and the rest of japanese ninja's 3. never mess with pokerstars, jokerstars, riverstars and justin bieber.
in case you break any of these rules you will burn in hell and have your balls chopped off (in no particular order).

The ones who play online are kind of retarded yes.
The people who are clever enough to play poker ain't playing poker, because Dutch people like certainty and no risks.
For example in the states it's normal to go bankrupt and start your empire all over again, in Holland people are so careful that they don't even start a business empire because they they DON'T want to take the risk (plus all the government rules and regulations).
Dutch people are also very greedy, so they don't like the risk their hard earned Euros.

seems that lot of people will "hate" poker stars for all of thing that they will change in 2016. year,especially about bonuses and FPP and VPP points!will see how this will affect on their job and profit!
Maybe their stock price will go up in the future. Or hasn't it hit rock bottom yet?
whell they will scare off all high stakes cash game players off their site... so they will go down even more... they realy sht themselfs with this new vip changes....
