I gotta disagree with ya JK, I like stars structure because of the antes. I'm more of a pot-stealer type player than sit back and wait for the goods player, Therefore, making antes to my benefit. A lot of the low BI MTT players don't see pot size PF, they see whos entered the pot, and if theres no antes, A steal from CO or the Button jsut wins 1.5 BB's. Which is ok, but when you steal the blinds and the antes, it has more relative effect on your stack vs the rest of the table.

Its really a matter of style opinion.

I havent played in but one or two Party events, and they were both special/invite type events, so I can't comment on the field size that much, but Stars has fields in the low BI events that are 60%-80% dead money. Overlay is huge for a good player.
