poker star game adds

poker stars must be gearing up for the wcoop. They just added horse and razz to their list of games. Still just playchip but sure to adding real money tables soon. Just giving heads up on new games offered

FINALLY!

Well, not yet, but presumably as long as everything is ok the real money tables will quickly follow.

Edit: They just added some $1/$2 tables \o/

Alhena V on Stars, 1/2, come join me and Grumbledook.

Just sat down

OMG GUESS WHO WE FOUND

Not before time, looking forward to it

Welly

ps well you might as well give up now if A.T.E is at the table

He went busto after 15 mins.

lol sorry but that is funny

Sure it wasn't Toadly in disguise ?

Did you get a chance to ask him for some advice before he went bye bye?

His chat is banned, look at the screenie.

OH MAN i wish i hadn't missed that
So his expert advice didn't get him any magical 'pro poker player' profit?

The cash tables are there. Both hose and horse.

Play 8 hands of one format then onto next.

Cant see a horse in the wcoop, hopefully one is planned (?)

Welly

ps shame A.T.E didnt make the grade

i liked this hand - i value call g00t

yeah, there are two HORSE tournaments on the WCOOP list, and one Razz.

they don't seem to have any tournies or SNG's up yet , but i was still happy to see it.

On fire in the Razz section, god knows what some of these guys are thinking

Good luck

Yep, looking forward to a few MTTs

My god, the razz players on there are horrible - a new goldmine has been found!

102k players on Stars now - new record? I've never seen even Party up that high either.

they have SNG's going now. it's like they're still testing them, because they're only doing turbos, and some they even have the buy in listed wrong. Been playing 2 table ones. Play quality is pretty low, but the buy ins are very low. can't wait untill they get it running smoothly and get some higher buy ins, longer rounds and MTT's going. pickings are pretty easy right now.

Hello

We have deployed several low buy-in RAZZ sit and goes. They are located
under the "Sit & Go" tab. They are only available in 1-table events at a
$3.40 buy-in. We are still testing and developing the software necessary
for MTT events.

Please keep your eyes open as we will be rolling out higher buy-in SNG's
and MTT's in the near future.

Regards,

They are running 2 table razz SNG's, but they are listed as HORSE. Another odd thing is all the 2 table SNG's are listed as $3+$.40 buy in, but are actually $1.50+$.75. You'd thing they might have things running a little better considering they have been testing them on pokerstars beta. strange to see stars make mistakes like this. sure they'll get it fixed soon though

made about $25 playing these tonight. i highly reccomend them.

Well just played in one of those Horse 2 table sit n go's for the big money. You know $1.50+.25 buy in's...lol.. Got fourth place so i made 65 cents. Like I said big money, but it was still fun. As the blinds and stakes get high during razz, stud, and stud high low one mistake and your out if your low on chips.
