Pokerstars or Fulltilt

**shaREEF** · 03-19-2007

I've played on pokerstars for about a year now and just recently emptied my bankroll. Bad beats and bad plays on my part. But i was wondering if someone can give me there views who have both played on ps and fulltilt. Are the beats on fulltilt as ridiculous and are there a lot of fish and ppl like that? just let me know some info and some input.

thanks

The beats are just as "ridiculous" as it is anywhere else, it's poker.

Generally I've found the players to be of a lower standard than PS but the tables ($25nl anyway) are very tight, a little too tight for my liking. Americans can play so yes, there are fish

If you play cash games, play at FT not PS. Why? 2 words: bonus + rakeback.

And play properly rolled to counter the bad beats.

Fulltilt is a nice change from PS....i like the layout of everything and the graphics. Not as popular, so the tourneys wih the guaranteed prize pool have a pretty steep buy in. Im not really a cash player.....the low to mid sngs are pretty easy. Great bonus, especially if you play enough cash games to cear it. Make sure you sign up for rakeback, as theres a few places that offer 27%

i dont blame the site i blame how i could have jack ten and flop is 7 k 10 and someone goes all in with 10 3 and i call and turna nd river are 3's

for example my most recent happened 5 minutes ago:
ealt to j3ts83 [Jh Ts]
j3ts83: calls 20
earaiza: checks
*** FLOP *** [4s Kd Th]
earaiza: bets 80
j3ts83: raises 580 to 660 and is all-in
earaiza: calls 580
*** TURN *** [4s Kd Th] [3c]
*** RIVER *** [4s Kd Th 3c] [3d]
*** SHOW DOWN ***
earaiza: shows [3h Tc] (a full house, Threes full of Tens)
j3ts83: shows [Jh Ts] (two pair, Tens and Threes)
earaiza collected 1400 from pot
*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot 1400 | Rake 0
Board [4s Kd Th 3c 3d]
Seat 1: j3ts83 (button) (small blind) showed [Jh Ts] and lost with two pair, Tens and Threes
Seat 2: earaiza (big blind) showed [3h Tc] and won (1400) with a full house, Threes full of Tens

You had second pair with a shitty kicker and went all in for 660 into a pot worth 120, THAT is why you lose your money, not because the other guy is even more of a donk.

Get pokertracker/pokeroffice, play 30k+ hands, have a look at your stats, post them and then see if you still think it's rigged.

you mean no one on this site has told you how to turn off the doom switch?

Guys....You're not playing fair with the N00B.

I've had an account with Full Tilt for several years but wasn't aware that they had a rakeback program. I visited Full Tilt a few minutes ago looking for any information about a rakeback program but didn't find any mention of such a program. How does one sign up for rakeback at Full Tilt?
