Poker Stars VS Party

[Ogre]

Whats the difference between 100+9s on party and 100s (turbo and regular) sngs on pokerstars? Should i start out at a lower limit if im playing my first ever PS sng?

more chips, more play, more skill, roi will be higher, $/hr likely lower. holla

The turbos on Stars become a crapshoot later on. Stars is also 9-handed (slightly different payouts) and the blind levels are time-based, obviously..

Having just played my first stars turbo, I have to say that I was totally out of my confort zone. Between looking for my own chip count when it was on me to call, trying to get poker ace to work, and the unexpected ante I was enviromentally overwhelmed. If someone who plays stars regularly could offer a few tips about the interface, I'd be grateful for them.
I know its just client-shock but damn, I just wasn't ready to learn to walk all over again.

I signed up and played at stars for the 1st time today and it was awkward... but I like the lower rake... regular games are WAY TOO LONG, but the turbo is nice and quick. I have not yet tried to figured out how one less player and a lower rake at stars affects my return vs Party's structure... 2 for 2 ITM... that is pretty cool [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Chip count is in top left corner. Just have more time to wait till you start making moves and pushing. Turbos are defiently beatable.... Wait what am I saying theyre impossible to win everyone go to Party!!! STARS SUCKS! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I think that I started pushing too soon at stars... oh well, I will adjust next game. Thanks

Regular stars tournies have the same fee...turbos are lower.

Well, maybe this is all a good thing. I've got bonuses to clear at stars [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

If you turn player images on, your chip count will always be visible besdie your cards (rather than be hidden behind your cards). You can turn individual images off one by one if they are distracting.
