Why play at Stars???
Hey guys, I've been comsidering downloading stars/UB etc for a while, mainly for reloads but my question for people who play primarily at these sites is WHY? All I hear about them (especially Stars) is how mich tougher/tighter the games are than Party/skins so can someone explain to me what makes these sites worth playing? Thanks
Good luck, Matt |

Thanks, I didn't know their rake structure was lower. Still think I'll stick to my party skin account with rakeback but that is good to know.
Take care, Matt |

Thier rake is lower? Explain. I thought they were all 5% up to $3.

Re: Why play at Stars???
Well I play at the micro limits and it is different so I should have clarified:
at .25/.50 to 1/2 PS takes .25 for every $5 in the pot while PP takes 0.50 at $5 and 0.75 at $12. But it seemed like that extra 0.25 got raked as soon as the pot reached $7.50. They look even at Small/Medium/High Stakes: PokerStars Rake Structure Party Poker Rake Structure The other two still apply however... |

They also have shorthanded limit games smaller than $5/10 but bigger than $1/2. Party doesn't.

How does a skin work? Does it show the same tables or different ones?
I started playing on UB before I knew about rakeback so I'm stuck without it for the moment. If I could legitimately switch over to a UB skin with rakeback I'd love to. |

Skins show the same tables, but there are no skins of UB, so switching to another one is not an option.

I agree the games (in general) are better at party, but Stars also has a ton of players, and you should not have a problem finding good tables there either.
