I don't follow the poker-pulse numbers at all.
Just read the occasional report from uglyowl and that's about it. Usually just make my own casual observations. right now: Party - 41k players Stars - 33k players Considering that some of the Party players get counted 2 or 3 times (if they are even logged-on via party and empire for example) and that almost zero Stars players get counted twice (I am assuming) I think it is even closer then even these already relatively close numbers indicate. |

I think it's closing and it's a matter of time before Party gets overtaken by Stars. And the games at Stars are getting "fishier" than they used to be.
Having the last 2 WSOP champs come from Stars and the inundation of ads about such is starting to pay off, IMHO. |

They have been showing way more comercials. Saw one during the NBA finals on ABC in primetime. FWIW, I have been playing a bit more there.

I can't say I'm surprised Stars is closing the gap. I've recently started playing Party after playing Stars for several months, and I hate the Party interface/software. Stars has much better support as well.
I don't understand why Stars so rarely offers bonuses. It's the only thing that's keeping me from playing there exclusively. That being said, I will be playing there tonight from 10-11 pm this week. Hey, it's a start. |

There are lots of Stars adverts on the London Underground which has probably made some difference as there are like 8 million people in this city. And they're the best ads IMO.

I've noticed that stars has jumped in number of players online as well. Stars was my original nickel and dime home, I'm back there playing higher now and I absolutely love it.

FWIW, I doubt they will start offering more bonuses, either. They are proving that they don't need to do so to attract people.

I have noticed that stars' games are tough. anyone else agree? And stars does not have an affiliate program correct?

Right now I counted at 30-60 holdem -30 tables at party going (17 9-10 handed) and stars has 3 (2 tables 9-10 handed).Party has 27 15-30 tables and stars has 1 .And I will stop counting other limits right from there becuase there is no comparison.Without even looking I'm sure that stars has much much more tournies going than party -either that or play money.its 12:28 pacific right now.

With the WSOP coming up, the EPT being shown on terrestrial TV (sponsored by Stars) and their $350K guranteed being upped to $500K I can only see Stars getting stronger.
