I just read a thread on CC about the pokerstars Test site, so went over to check it out.

One of our chatters mentioned in a reply that it as just an all in site. How right can you be.

So, I play Omaha hi lo, NL for about an hour. Dont know how I lasted that long. But, did quit with only losing a couple hundred chips.

But, decided it was a total waste of time, as everyone goes all in first hand. Whas the point. Its not poker.

We all know that Omaha hi lo is a Post Flop game. But, here are a couple of screen shot I took.

I spent a hand or two testing out their test client. It's deleted off my system now.

There's not enough people on the site to make it worth while.
To buy-in to the upper limits you have to win some all-in's. Everyone's pushing to double up, triple up, etc..., constantly. It's comparable to the first minutes of UB's freerolls when I used to partake, but it seems like Groundhog Day over and over. Anyhow, then you make it to the upper limits and there's barely anyone to play. Not to mention no one even wants sit at the 6-handed tables.
I'm not sure what they're testing. I couldn't see anything different.

Yea...I just downloaded the TestPokerStars client yesterday as well. I've had the same problems happening to me with people shoving every hand. I was reading on the TestPokerStars site about incentives for using this software and come to find out they double your play money chips if you transfer them to the regular pokerstars.com client. This is really worthwile if you sell your play money chips online. I sold 120,000 chips last week just to see if the site was legit and I ended up getting $0.12 hahahaha. I know, I know, I know...it's not a lot at all but if you get a million chips you can sell them for $3, which is good way to start a bankroll. Play money chips aren't worth anything else anyways so why not take what you can get? The real question is, how much patience do you have with all these donkeys? lol...

There really isnt any point in that kind of game.
Alot of the mtt freerolls are like that as well.
Just have to make a deposit and play with some real money.
Then it gets worse.:p
