It clears a lot faster the higher you play. They never expire though, so take your time. Stars is one of my favorite places to play for their software and now their new fpp program looks pretty awesome...4 million hands to get my porche.... But I generally play elsewhere because bonuses are still a huge part of my bankroll. But if I have nowhere else to clear a bonus, the lower rake and things I previously mentioned make it a happy place for me.

I don't think Stars games are that much more difficult than elsewhere, it's just compared to party too often. I guess on average they are tighter than party's games.
