i know pokerstars has more players than any oher site,

and i believe that pokerstars is more friendly with maniacs (AA vs 2-6off and of course wins 6-2, minutes ago i tasted myself)

but has anybody thogut about the players, in general, that play in one site or another?

i´ve played in full tilt and pokerstars most of the time,

the players are really different from site to site, i mean pokerstars at a early stage of any low buy in mtt or freeroll is full of maniacs, for instance, when somebody makes a 3x raise always there are more than one guy ready not only to pay but to shove despite they were limping earlier and when the showdown reaches the 2-cards are really amazing, any two, they combine monsters, speculatives, marginals and everything is there, there is no chance one makes a 3xraise because players in pokerstars fire all the time,

full tilt, with some exceptions, any 3x raise means most of limpers fold, and very seldom one sees a limper going allin

and i think that´s the reason stars looks like a site where everything is possible, and the home of the badbeats

I agree about the players on PS but I find that in freerolls on FTP they are exactly the same.

On FTP freerolls, limpers will shove after a raise even with the most ridiculous hands, like the 2-6 off you mention.

I was just on a table there where 6 players limped round to button who 3xed. There were 5 all ins before the flop.

So to me both sites are pretty much the same for freerolls.

Move up in stakes. Take it to $5.00+ BIs. Seriously, you'll be glad you did because if you have respect for the game and any kind of above average knowledge of poker, you'll most likely start making profit.

Everywhere is the same on freerolls.

Whatever hand you have everyone jumps all in and for that reason you think always AA vs 62o u will loose with AA.
When you move up u will not see such jackass..idiots
Do not worry
