I know this has been a topic before, but I used to play 9-man SNG's on Full Tilt, but have been on Stars for around 6 months now...I'm finding that there seem to be many more SNG regs on Stars, and generally, the play is better. Does anyone else find this? Should I consider moving and playing back on FT again?

1. What makes the SNGs better?
2. Why do they take less time on Stars?
3. Are you referring to MTTs?

I like to play NLH at Tilt and RAZZ/HORSE/Studhl at pokerstars. The limit sit and go games at Tilt seem to last about 9-11 minutes longer then at Stars and thats with 8p table. Pretty big difference in the long run. Frankly the lower limits i play i find it also a little softer at Stars.

to me I cant play sngs at FT cus of the blind structure...but I do know what you're talking about with the regs.

First of all if you're playing at the limits you usually play at, they are all fish, regulars, but fish :)

Stars has better everything imo...cash, mtts, and sngs...youre a good player, dont worry about regs untill 50$+ sngs...trust me I got killed playing the 36-76$ 6 max :) (well I think I came out even or a little ahead but it was way harder than 10$ ones thats for sure) ;)

Alright, maybe I'll stick to Stars then...now that you mention it KC, I do remember the structure of the Tilt SNGs being awful...first time I anted up on Stars I had no idea what was happening. Alright, well...guess it's time to get better and stick to what I'm doing.

Having played both, I have had greater success at Full Tilt. However, I generally play the low-stakes non turbo, as like everyone has said, the Turbo full tilt blind structure is brutal and it turns into a shove fest sometimes with 5 players left.
