for me best thing is when you know what will you get when you exchange points or whatever loyalty program they have!I am not sure about poker stars,but I think that you dont know what prize will you behind it!if I am wrong,somebody can correct me!as I said before,on party casino for example,you know what you get and you can see your progress and every amount that is bigger then 0,89 e,you can take on your account!so you can wait till 100 e if you want!

I do not know how to do it but i think they care about this because there is a law which forces you to send documents and other details. It's more complicated but they are also seen as Romanian citizens. That charge obliges them to proceed in this way.
The biggest problem on PokerStars is that they don’t belong to the players. Well ... if they made some gifts or promotions for players who currently have no money in their account, then it would be more tempting for players to play on PokerStars .. .. But it seems to them that they already have enough players and therefore it is not worthwhile to please someone for free .... a very mercantile room has become PokerStars

They have the biggest slice of the pie. Why they should run often free promotions. Not that i agree with this, just saying. They dont care drawing freerollers any more. It is always nice having free promotions, giving the players a chance to score extra money, either playing for real or not.

Pokerstars has begun to change in 2014, after a while since Amaya Group bought it this poker room from the Jidanii ( father and son ) who owned it. Since then, good free games they started to disappear. I guess the blame is the number of bosses from this company which need to be fed...

Yes, 2014 was generally quite key in the world of poker .... there were a lot of events when some poker rooms closed down some poker rooms changed their hosts, respectively, the Management changed and accordingly there were changes in the poker rooms .... Until 2014, it was much better as far as I am I remember on sensations

For me, the saddest was when Full Tilt Poker closed. After that i was very happy with Pokerstars. In two years 2011-2013 my happiness has changed in hate. I liked the tournaments too much and freeroll games but two things destroyed my trust. Bad beats and the fact that they did not let me to make money. Since then, for me, Pokerstars has been no hope which i dreamed. For me it has turned into an ugly dream.
Of course, the closure of Full Tilt Poker is the worst thing that probably happened in the poker world // // Because the whole thing is that I started my game originally on Full Tilt Poker and I certainly really liked it. I always played there were a lot of freerolls there were many good ones games //// Well, here are the PokerStars titles that this wonderful poker room has swallowed up and as a result Only good Memories and more remain

The multitude of poker rooms made Full Tilt to have no success which he had in the past. Now there are many poker rooms and the most are empty. This is a disadvantage for most players because they lose the chance of earning more money. When tournaments have many players, then paid seats are more and you can make money more easier. Full tilt did not have many players like in the past and now is a ruin.
Full Tilt Poker is a nostalgic association for me .... I started playing in this poker room and in this poker room I learned to play when playing free tournaments that were held there periodically .... these tournaments were from this site .. .. and I even once took as a result the leader table second place among the BRM members

Nothing for me although I have only just logged back in after a time away from pokerstars. The chests do sound like something I want to get into though. I guess a deposit is required to start earning or open the first chest? Let me know if anyone has advice on the best way to get first chest.

I have been playing regularly at poker stars and I'm already at the black level of the chests, to unlock them they ask me for 4250 points, that's a lot but you still think a good prize will come. A desepcion that after opening 3 chests only receive gold coins no more than 150 I hope that in the next chest my luck changes. good luck and see you at the tables ...
