Hi.

Ive tried tried to ask similar question on other forums, but no one seem to answer my question. Hopefully I can get an answer from you.

What is the big benefits playing on pokerstars?
I understand Pokerstars offers some great tournaments mid-high stake, Thursday Thrill, Sunday million etc.
- But why do you play micro/low stakes on Pokerstars when the tournament player field is almost 2.5k+ every tournament.

There is so many players regging to tournaments on Pokerstars.
Ive played mostly on 888 where the playerfield is so small. - Bigger chance to get ITM and even tho the tournament prizepool is small compared to what Pokerstars can offer, you would still get the same amount of cash, because of the small player field.

Im not trying to talk negative about PokerStars, they do much for poker, im my opinion. I just want your perspective.

I think if you play into itm achieved it many times but the goals must be to win the tournament always play in the room you play and the number of players not to worry in many recreational players ps

One of the main reasons, i don't want to play with Americans. Its the poker lobby that suits me the most, easy to find out everything.

Everyting comes to the brand and image, quality and what they really are is on by side. It's like NIKE shoes and ADIDAS shoes. Maybe they are the same but, Nike has more clients then Adidas, its all about richer company, more advertisement and marketing, more famous players etc.
There is no adequate response :)

although mincashing could be for about the same amount, it is the top prizes which attract a lot of people.

Im not just talking about mincashing. There is just a better chance for you to go all the way in a tournament where the playerfield is smaller.
I just dont understand why some people are so into Pokerstars where the field is so large.

888Poker in the field is much smaller , so is more likely to stay in ITM , but the awards are smaller and the buy-ins are higher than at PokerStars.

Have you ever looked at the prizes on 888?
You can buy-in for like 2$ and the prize is 2k$ on 888.
On Pokerstars the prize would maybe be 3.5k$. But with 2-3x amount of players.

That means the prizepool would be stretched so much, that the top10 cashes would be almost the same.

In pokerstars the final table places of these MTTs offer great payouts. Don´t know about other sites liker 888 to be honest, although i believe it is the second largest site at the moment.

Also game and I prefer 888 Poker as my favorite room, the advantage is as already said make final table in a tournament on Pokerstars is much better than in another site , by which the awards are larger , I like you prefer to play in other rooms with tournaments with the least number of Players

You overlook the obvious.

People have a delusional excessive self regard. The more people, the more he's gonna win!!! Simple.

Then they make up some excuse why the lost.

You will see images of Daniel Negreanu all over the place and even get emails "signed" by him. Is that not a reason enough to play there?
