What do you mean with 'worried' to play?
I should probably play more at 888, but I dislike both the lobby and table layout, so I choose to mostly play at Pstars anyway.

Well pokerstars has tougher opponents than 888 for sure. That's why you should grind at 888 if you want money, but I value my playing experience more, which is why I choose Pokerstars over 888.

I totally agree to you! I play both. Not "worried" at all.

good luck at tables!!!

PS has better software and more action. 888 softer player pool, but don't be mistaken PS has lots and lots of high value, fish filled tourneys as well

I have not played in 888 but if I have time in Pokerstar, it seems that in 888 it can progress faster, but I would not leave Pokerstar for anything in the world.

I started playing very well at 888, but at some point the band went bad luck and almost lost everything. Now slowly recovering, but very slowly. At the PS I play very accurately at small stakes. All the same, the PS has a lot more players and a stronger field in my opinion.

PS is unambiguous the leader. choice of games big, number of players big. the software is the best. I played on 888, this website couldn't detain me. if the field is one PS stronger, than on 888---it is better to play with stronger players if you wants to play stronger.

Don't really like the interface on 888 - feels like back in the beginning of 2000+ years. But the players can't say they're weak for 2 months was not lucky to win anything.
But here at PokerStars, I really good luck. Not to say that rowing thousands of dollars, but to train and win, even at 10-15$ not bad. Although as fast them to lose, succumbing to emotions.

I deposited on 888 and regret it. I can't play it anyways, because they haven't released software for mac (technically I could play there, but I don't want to play through a web browser or on my ipad because I can't collect my hand history). Even though I haven't really won anything substantial on stars, I enjoy the diversity of games that run, and the volume of players.

Poker Stars has a tougher field and best software but does not come anywhere close to 888 Poker when it comes to freerolls and promotions.

never been worried, why would you?
Harder, in better quality when it comes to players you play against, i would say that Poker Stars had better competition...at 888, a lot of fishes come around, who are mostly casino and sportsbook oriented, so go for 888 bud ;) cheers!

Perhaps a 888 is little harder for good players, just to many jokes...

Not so much worried but both poker softwares are about the same the only difference is that 888 have promotional freerolls so that's why I like playing at 888.

888 or pokerstars

Really like 888 poker. Easy to find games and their animation is fun. Lots of fishes though. Just have to keep that in mind. Pokerstars better field of players I think generally, and their school makes it interesting. You came climb in rank and earn tickets to games. best of luck to you.

I use both Clients.
If you like the Spin&Go format as much as i do, stick with Pokerstars. Cause at 888 you will often not be able to win before it turns into an ALL IN Shootout.

On the other hand. 888 has a much better VIP Program in my opinion.

Pokerstars ist auf jeden Fall bekannter, und hat somit auch viel mehr Spieler, darunter auch viele Schwache.
Bevor man sich an einem Tisch setzt, kann man auch die Spieler beobachten und kann damit auch die Stärke der Spieler einschätzen.
