i played in a couple of the Partypoker freerolls and then today played in the Pokerstars,my opinion is that Stars are far better,ive not played in the party ones again but just because of the blind structure at Pokerstars........thats the Fellow for me.....anyone agree?....

THEY ARE BOTH RIPOFFS,I WON'T EVEN PLAY ON JOKERSTARS,AND PARTY PLAYERS WILL BEAT YOUR A-A WITH JUNK LIKE 5-6 OFF,THE SITE SEEMS TO HAVE THE SOFTWARE GEARED TOWARDS FAVORING ALL THE DONKS,PLAY A DECENT GAME AND 90% OF THE TIME IT GETS YOU NOWHERE.THE CANADIAN PLAYERS CANT SEEM TO GET A BREAK,ALL WESTERN DONKS(EUROPE,SPAIN,UKRAINE,RUSSIA,ETC,ETC)CHECK THE CURRENT LEADERBOARD,FIND 1 CANADIAN IN THE TOP 30,THE DONKEYS RULE THE ROOST
------------ AND IF THIS ISNT BAD ENOUGH,PLAY THE CASH TABLES AGAINST SOME OF THE DONKS FROM THOSE COUNTRIES,DOESNT MATTER THE STAKES,THEY SUCKOUT AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN,ITS PATHETIC HOW BAD THEY PLAY AND GIVE YOU EITHER THE BURN ON THE TURN OR DROWN YOU IN THE RIVER,I GUESS IT IS TRUE,IT IS BETTER TO BE LUCKY THAN GOOD

Are you suggesting that it might be rigged (hehe), it's been a while since we had a rigged thread. I particuarly like your use of capital letters. ---------- Wow rigged suggestion and regional abuse all in one thread - welcome to the forum.

GO CHECK THE LEADERBOARD,ROGUE63 AND I WERE THE ONLY CANADIANS IN THE TOP 30(ALTHOUGH I NOTICED TODAY IVE SLIPPED TO 31ST) AND THEN GO PLAY AGAINST SOME OF THOSE PLAYERS,THEN WHEN YOUR ACES LOSE TO CRAP LIKE A 5-6 OFF ALL-IN FROM 1 OF THE SUPERDONKS,MAYBE YOU WILL GET THE POINT BUT THEN AGAIN U HAVE A LITTLE DONKEY FOR AN ICON. WOULD U RISK ELIMINATION WITH 5-6 OFFSUIT?IF SO THEN THAT LITTLE ICON SUITS YOU WELL

its a freeroll man,your going to get donks that go all in with nothing and up against AA their going to win 20% of the time heads up,it hurts but you just have to forget it and move on,keep thinking about it and it might put you on tilt. and for your theory of pokersites against canadian players wel thats plain dumb

i played in both tournaments...the only one i think it deserves playing it s the 200 $ one on party but beware...all hands that look playable aren t ))i lost on AA KK vs hands like 2 4 22 44 88 10 after playing by the book...maximum 550 players on parrty and about 2000 on pokerstars.. i think i m getting paranoic regarding party poker..the damn river hates strong hands.. in the end i prefer party cause of the woderfull 200 $ tourney
i have played on both sites for years.....stars has gottin so bad in the past 1-2years for sucout kings that ship it allin with 56 suited vs a a k k or any toplevel holdem hand..so i rather play party way more managable fields better players...

I am playing both. Have to say, that I like the tourneys at PartyPoker more than the PS ones, because of the smaller field (500 to 600 vs 2000 to 3000) and because of the blind structure.
