888 is a very good site, it almost does not have such stupid moves as pokerstars. Constantly stocks, good tournaments and cash games.

Until they client lobby 888 is simply awful, they will never become the number 1 in the world and will not dislodge PokerStars.
I tried to play in 888, and worse than their client lobby I did not meet

Pokerstars for sure. I've played 888 in the past - didn't really like the platform/software. If your'e looking for really nice, reliable and fast software with lots of games available, Stars is the way to go.

I'd be really surprised if one poker site's games were truly any 'softer' than another at the lower stakes.

I like PokerStars more. Here is a large selection of tournaments and cash games, a lot of freerolls and there is a poker league. There are a lot of poker variations. Another important point is the user-friendly interface of the program.
And my observation is that the level of players in PokerStars is higher than in 888.

888 poker apparently has a lot more fish on it that PStars, but I am not 100% sold. 888 doesn't support Jivaro, and it looks really tacky, especially with the virtual casino ads at the table.

I don't now whether PStars is rigged for bad beats like some people may think it is. If you are one of those people than of course go with 888, although I've seen some bad ones on there as well. I might start using 888 poker more after thinking about it. If the play is softer than why not, making money does trump the way it looks, but Pstars will continue to be my main program.

I did not like the 888 platform. It looks like Facebook app. Even tried to play to try but did not. Horrible - my opinion.

Of all the poker rooms I've played on, I like PokerStars the most

Of all the poker rooms I've played on, I like PokerStars the most. I really like the design of the PokerStars client, a very large variety of tournaments, and there is an opportunity to earn a bankroll without risking money. Personally, I think that at PokerStars it is much harder to play than on other poker rooms, because there are a lot of regulars on PokerStars. Still very good BetOnline, SportsBetting and AmericasCardroom, they are much easier than PokerStars but they are also interesting to play on. At PokerStars I feel most comfortable, but unfortunately it's very difficult to win on it. I've got many acquaintances who went to Unibet, because there are a lot less players and a lot of different stocks.

It also seems to me that games on 888 are softer and the generation of loss of cards is more realistic, although more I play on the stars, the tournaments here seem more interesting to me, I play the cache at 888

They give tickets because you're new at 888. You'll play a little and stop giving tickets. I like Prkestars more. Where more players play there it's easier to choose for yourself a suitable tournament or table.

I play 888 and Poker Stars, i am slowly winning on 888, and slowly loosing on Poker Stars.
Poker Star is big, professional and working very well.
888 is smaller, more i will say, for hobby and amateurs.

Stars Is more User friendly+Prizes are that much bigger. Now the downside to Stars Is the massive fields+landmines that a player must make It through to get to that "Massive prize or even top 3". The players just seem "That much harder/better". Also on Stars the daily CC free-rolls+SMC+Over all free-rolls+CC league+PSO league/School+Big Bang (Tickets), need I continue?

Now 888 as stated, lack of "free-roll selections" (As compared to Stars private ones)+lack of league (CC league or any-sort of 888 equivalent league to match Stars), the only free-rolls they have are those "Ticket ones" (Which have like 5k+and are hypers or something like that). Now positives to 888 the games are softer and yes (They do have some decent prize pools also), yet the decent prize pool games are "That much more expensive to buy Into". Thing about It, would you rather buy Into a $215 with say 1k players for X amount of $$$ winning say 40k-50k, or would you rather win the Sunday Mill for $150k but vs say 10k players. Also since the fields are smaller, that would mean that getting to ITM (Is also smaller).

Don't get me wrong, I myself see ($$$$) as that, and 40-50k Is nothing to scoff at, but you'd have to win It 3 times to equal one score of the Sunday Million and you'd have to pay a higher price tag to enter (That said game on 888). Yet the site over all Is softer vs Stars.

Now as others have stated the site"IMO Is ugly, I have no other way to put,lol.

Everyone chooses in different ways. I did not play on 888 before. Now I'll try to play and understand the difference.
