I think it is the best poker room actually, even there is not good promotions the room is perfect for finding a lot of tournaments, and the quality of the players is really good, I hope to see you guys in the sunday million, bye

its the site with most traffic for a reason. promo isnt that bad. no live support but they response quickly to your questions or for whatever cause you contact them. software runs smooth.no kindergarden avatars/simple 2D graphic ...just great id like others sites too but PS is just PS

Had two short but very good experiences at stars. First one was during the 25bn hand party, made a 1st deposit of $10 and doubled+ up easy with the first deposit freerols they held during that period.
Two month ago put there $50, doubled up too playing regular SnG and Turbo DoNs. But I had some bonus expiring and I have an account with rakeback on FullTilt, so I cashed out and will not return soon to PokerStars.

it's a very good place to play big tournaments, but the skills of the players are higher than average. the vip-program is only suitable for players of the higher limits.

in some situation i hate pokerstars so much....some guys know exactly what i mean .......
The other pokerrooms don't deal a rivercard?
LMAO
How come, in almost in thread about a certain poker room there is always at least one crazy person posting some crack-pot conspiracy theory ???
Ego I suppose, easier to call everything rigged than admit you suck.
Personally, I suck lol
I think you can be more unlucky at 1 site than you be on another and if you compare those factors with eachother Than you could come 2 the conclusion that you should avoid the one where you are the most unlucky! Some people say this site some people say that site And why it shouldn't it be true Where people are unlucky there have 2 be lucky people and vice versa! I played my share already 2mill hands on the internet and my conclusion is. Find out wich site suits you the best and play there and if you got bad vibes by a site quit 4 a matter of time!
------------ And yes it is easier 2 call a site rigged than blame yourself. But there are situations in poker like overpair vs underpair 80%/20% or with dominated hands 4 example AK vs AQ 75%/25% If you play TAG bet 80% with the best hand and bet it agressive you play your hands good but when you come in a situation when the money goes allin preflop and you are the big favourite 4 all the money I know when that scary card comes more than 50% of the time there is something wrong and if you use Handhistorydatabases and handconverters and graphs and look all 2 hands up 2 see if you didnt miss something and there it also is a fact that you lose more hands where you are big favourite than win them! That is why I quit pokerstars hope it will never happen 2 you and yes on other sites I have bad beats 2 but according 2 my handhistorybase almost normal just slightly in my disadventage so much better and I am a winning player 2
------------ I talk about more than 20k hands on ps where I had those beats!

played aces allin preflop 26 times lost 18 come on! KK 14 times lost 10 on pokerstars yes Ak vs AQ,AJ or A-X. 55times lost 30 times all very against the odds and did I play my hands bad here when the money goes in preflop far with the best hand
Should you continue there if you had the same experience! I really don't like it because I think PS has the best software and of course traffic and lots of different games but I am a thief of my own wallet if I continue Don't want 2 give pokerstars a bad name because my opinion is what I said earlier probably on the sites where I am winning there are people who have the same experience as I have on ps!
------------ Where are the responds? No arguments against my story!

i can relate to your feelings.
Raise before flop from another player... I call it I had KK in pocket flop is 7KT Other is All In. I call it , cause three kings. Other shows AA. im like what that guy thought. But then Pokerstars awards this donkey and gives him an ace more. Yeah right, nice play there.
You either luv PS or hate it, I don't care for it. Too many quad's dealt, hmmmmmmmmmm..... You will know what I mean when your FH is beat by quads to many times...lol

well, the promos are not really good i think, you get more rakeback and reload-boni on other sites (as long as you are not supernova), the reason for the high traffic is their marketing i would say. good thing of course is that you never have to wait for other players (i play SnGs and it sucks to wait 10 minutes until there are enough players for one small tounament, especially if you want to multitable. for MTT-players it is the best site by far
PokerStars is best site when it comes to any form of Poker. Even some exotic ones like Badugi, you won't find more players anywhere else. However as the biggest pokerroom they aren't so desperate to offer great bonuses and rakeback for most customers, they will have the traffic anyway. And promote their product in so many Live Events too. For a winning player it's a site to stay forever at.

Biggest guarantee tournaments and most players. A lot of players = a lot of fish . And i like the bonus system much more than any other sites ... very easy to clear and you get the whole sum once you have earned the required FPPs . The VIP shop also holds "realistic" prices (of course its horrible expensive but still ... )
Havent had a single problem with Pstars. Easy to cashout and deposit ...
