It depends on your game style... At PS you'll be playing against some very good players, and in PP the level isn't that good. The main problem I found on PP is that most of players will be shoving with strange hands and winning some big pots against monster hands.
It's up to you. To play cash I'd prefer PP, for tourneys PS and for SnG PS.

It has to be PS for me. The whole experience far outshines all other sites. Easier to work your way through whats on offer and find games that are what you're looking for. Its a bit more complicated finding games on PP. Also prefer the whole graphics set up.
I like party poker especially with brm leader board free roll. The game is really good and not so much suck outs...hehehe.as I experience....pokersstars is like playing up and down...more suck outs...shoving with monsters and loosing to a weak a hand...hahaha..anyway that's poker....youll never know what will happen next....

Find it funny how so many players here say there are more bad beats/suckouts at Pokerstars.... But thats impossible if its random....so actually all you guys say its rigged...
Or explain me how otherwise there are more suckouts at PS ??... bad players ?? ehum...

Stars all the way. Not enough traffic on party, although the bwin buyout may change that for the better. Stars is all around a better choice, for reasons people have already mentioned. Lower rake, more players, and the software is just all around better. Plus they have Zoom poker

They are both very good sites, which work as no others in terms of online support and always have tables with action to make part of, but this also means you will probably find in these rooms the most experienced players at any levels, from micro to top, turning the objective of building a nice bankroll to take regular profits also more difficult to achieve. Many must get it, we just have to look at the number of players online at any time of the day to proof this, but also many others must keep losing and losing again. Wherever you go, be patient.

i don't like the interface of party- whatever they change it seems to me that they are outdated, this is probably not the case in reality, but it's just my personal feeling...stars offer way more selection- either you play micro limits, of go for rare poker forms like badugi, triple stud etc. and they have way more traffic- so stars are winners here...but if you are winning at party and losing at stars there is no reason to change room just for the extra features....

Software wise i would say defo pokerstars.. if you are a pro ofc pokerstars you have alot more tournaments and very interesting promotions. BRM party pokerbonus is really nice the no deposit one you can build a bankroll easily with that and the freerolls + free sats are really awesome alot better than pokerstars.
For me it's nice to play on both but i think it depends alot on your commitment to the game.. if your going really serious pokerstars ofc if not i like party.

I have to agree that the party poker bankrollmob freerolls were way better than the ones from pokerstars but if you plan to deposit i still think you should choose PS...
Anyways, no matter what choose you make be sure to chime in with your evolution

I think there is more suck outs because the deal more hands than party poker maybe because as the number of dealt hands increases the higher the possibility that suck out will occur....anyway I did not say that ps is rigged...

But this does not effect 1 single player and thats what some people are saying They say they found more suckouts at PS then at PP So this has nothing to do with more hands dealt at PS
Every hand should be random at PS and PP
So when individual players all claim they see much more suckouts at PS then PP this has nothing to do with how many hands a pokersite deals
So when people claim this its just another way to say the cards dont come out random Or if you want ....rigged
Now ontopic
In my experience pokerstars is the way to go if you want to play online poker Especialy if you play for fun pokerstars has the most choice in games and many players So there's always competition in every type of game and many tournaments
Party is ok but not even a close 2nd compared to Pokerstars

Stars bites @$$, since my withdrawal of $1000 haven't hit a thing.And when i do get close i get beat by rediculous calls,you know runner ,runner,or 62 os hitting boat,lol.Stars is fixed NO DOUBT.I know, conspiracy theories a plenty, But it is true watch some of those you tube vids.I am going to blow what have left at Stars and move to a smaller site. Tired of the stupid calls from bingo players resulting in bad beats. And ya I know "thats poker".
