I hear all the time from usa players that they wish they play on stars,they always say building bankroll is much easier than in poker stars,but i have to dissagree to thatbut why?
1-in poker stars since it has his players by now there is no proper freerolls for building bankroll,let me make an example,there is a well known freeroll on stars called bankrollmob freeroll that is plays 6 time a day that needs pass but it is free,about 4000 or 5000 people battling for about 25 dollars and first prize is 4.5 dollars.i have alot more example in that matter
2.in micro cash tables since people gain hard their money players play very tight,i seen and played in micro tables and u should have hand and good one to win pots.but i should say in low and middle stakes people play more loose and it is easier to play with them .
for instant i played 5 cent 10cent on carbon,played like an hour and from 10 dollar buy in i made 50 dollars in no time,but in poker stars in those blinds player play so much tight that if u buy in for 10 dollars and play perfect for an hour the best u can get is making about 15 or tops 20 dollars,very hard to play
3.in SNGs and multi table if u want to play for big money from 5k garantee up to 100k,u should buy in from 1 dollar up to 11 or 20 dollars and since the players are alot more so the prize is bigger than u think,but the problem is with a such big players pool ur chance of making the finall table where the all money is thinner that u think and with the formula pays people u should be on at least finall table to make proper money that it is not that easy competing with at least 5k up to 50k people .
and finally since u play in a very large pool of players u seen lots of players that make disisions diffrent than others,like how they play and large chunk of players are from eastern that playing with those aggressive not thinker players is harder than u think
and i should mention this at final u see alot more suck out not cause the platform is rigged because the bad player and fishes are more than u can think and lots of time they play bad and got lucky,but in merge players are more play not good but better poker,since they are all american and they know poker better.
finally i should say in high stakes all i was saying going to reverse
