Default Re: Pokerstars

Stars flat out sucks for bonuses and there's not much reason to do so there. Its value lies mainly in the tournaments and nanolimits, which is a great way to start learning poker without throwing $300 into a bankroll right off the bat.

I play .50/1 there becaues I'm too damned lazy to move, and it's kindof nice to sharpen my fangs against the other TAG or two at any particular table. Oh, and I'm running 4.61BB/100 over 6k hands there so far--not too bad [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

As for FPP, I think the only things people use those for are freeroll tourneys and making private tourneys for KOTKP et al. Oh, by the way, if anyone has bonuses to clear there they're doubling the FPP earned through the end of the year, so now you can get two points every dozen hands!

(Disclaimer: my only experience with other sites is Party, which I played w/ a $100 freeroll right in the middle of a 150+BB downswing. Oops.)
