PokerStars is by far the worst site in the history of Online Poker

DiK2BiG · #1 (**permalink**) 08-09-2006, 05:34 PM

The worst aesthetical value I've seen in any poker room online. The setup for cash games and tourneys is all jumbled up (there's no filter for NL vs. PL vs. Limit).

Not to mention, I believe their statistics are way off. I played three tournaments in which I lost all of them. I lost my first tournament because of a runner runner. The second, I lost on the first hand when I had A-K and somebody else had A-A. But what really threw me on this particular tournament was that two other people called my all-in with K-K and J-J. Never in a million years have I see anything like that during live play. The third was another runner runner. The only three tournaments I've ever played on PokerStars were my last.

And the biggest deterrent for not playing on PokerStars is the competition is incredibly weak or incredibly stupid. Of course, the statistics levels the playing field for these weak and stupid players.

I am one unsatisfied customer and will not go back to PokerStars. I suggest you do the same.

ROFL!!!

"never have i seen this is my life in live play"

The other night watching the circuit event at one tables 1 player was dealt AA another KK another QQ and another JJ. Every facecard had hit poket pairs.

I like when people diss sites because they are bad players and cant make any money.

Your complaining because there are bad players there. Your retarded. You want bad players, THEY MAKE U MONEY. If you cant beat bad players then it says something about your own play.

I think there's something wrong with Pokerstars nowadays.
Maybe a small tiny glitch or something.. because every poker forum I go, people are complaining about horrible beats on Pokerstars.

I haven't seen as many for PartyPoker..

I tried PartyPoker last night, played 6 SnG's and finished 1st in 4 of them.

Not that this proves anything, but seems like many people are frustrated with Stars nowadays.. I definitely am one of them.

I am 1000% that you were playing for Play Money because those filters are not hard to notice.

If you played for play chips, you are a bum. NOt only do you lose to the shit of the shit players, you blame the website. Its your own fault.

I love stars. I'm up $222.42 in the last week multitabling on the $0.25 tables.
Last night I lost $25 in 1 hand when I got all in with AA vs KK. I had the best of it but a K came on the turn. A couple of hands later, this happened on a different table...

But I've just recently started playing on other sites and so far I still think Stars is the best. I hate the interface on UB and I hate how slow the party software is.

Yeah why does everyone rave about Ub and fulltilt but more UB the inerface just looks awfull

Pokerrooms is by far the sexiest with titan following closly

You would think partys is nice but it makes me feel a bit sick of poker for some reason

last night i was dealt KK first hand. It gets raised 7BB preflop so i decide to push all in. Guy calls.

He flips over K9o. So i win, right
Flop 439
turn 9
river 6

It was a bad beat, i got over it.

Then trippled next hand on my other table.

U blame the site when this kinda stuff happens all the time
