Party-Stars SnG Comparisons

[legendary loser]

The Poker Stars SnGs make room for more skilled players. The Party SnGs are more of a crapshoot because of the small chip stacks and rapid blind increases. You really need to push your small edges in the Party SnGs more so than Poker Stars. Most of the time you will only have 5-7x BB when you get Head Up on Party, while you may have 20-25x BB on Poker Stars.

The most important factor to serious players is the time length. Party SnGs average about an hour while PokerStars avg probably anywhere from 1:15-1:35. When this translates to multi-tabling, it really hurts the people that are playing 50+ SnGs a day.

I'd say, if you are just playing as a hobby or just playing 1-10 SnGs a day, then you could stick to Poker Stars. If you plan to use SnGs to make a lot money, I'd move to Party.
