maybe I don’t play much poker so I don’t pay much attention to rake. although when I opened the chest and got the prizes it was nice!) In the past few years, pokerstars has been tightening the screws and he will soon have to answer for the loss of guests. time goes on - everything changes)

Greed is something we all have to deal with, but carma is something

Hello!not when they couldn't get chests and other gifts,has goals and they need to implement yourself,and they let them think what they want,it's a business for them and in our time in all areas of business there are such things here.we still have to keep up with the times and its changes.

Before they did not grant great prizes either. I opened several times "Gold chest" with lower prizes than the previous categories.

It seems it is targeting MTT players only, which is pretty lame. There reasoning is so they can put it towards "what matters most" which is keeping there ridiculously large guaranteed prize pools, which they seem to hit anyways. So pretty much they take half of everyones rake so they can cover the overlays.
I do not play much volume at this room, so I do not receive many chests, but I can understand how people are unhappy with this.

Other rooms do not have nearly as much traffic as this room and offer much better rewards and rakeback offers. They make so much more money in rake then the other rooms too.

This is a good chance for another room to step up and offer better a good rakeback and reward structure for high volume players aswell as good promotions, freerolls and bonuses for casual recreational players.

coins

I'm visiting pokerstars every 4 hours and collecting free coins, I've noticed they promote the coins with discounts and special offers. Am I missing something here because as best I can tell these coins are worth nothing? I mean unless you can sell them to people but I don't see how one could do that.

Was it possible to get something worthy of the chests before?
It seems to me worse nowhere. It remains to completely deprive us of rake-back.

PokerStars announced a dramatic decrease in its' Stars Rewards program. Poker players are not happy about the significant change in their rake-back rewards, which stands to reason. What's next?
Stars Rewards Cut by 55% for All Online Tournaments, Players Predictably Outraged

The next Stars Rewards program will be 0% rakeback. Give to players anything it's not so important, right? The point is you can play using the best poker software in the biggest poker room. Who cares about players there? Nobody.

that is no insult, I noticed that favors PokerStars players from Russia and Brazil.
In tournaments that I play some hands with a 1% chance of getting .. Even this happening to me. I think it's because there are many players from these countries ..


That's what happens to me quite often! I can not believe when I see that he has the minimum chances and I'm over the river with the only possible card he needs! Do not play with a real player ?..What happens? lol!

Over the years, the PS has been losing several of its stars due to the various few advantageous changes. Currently, what is the advantage of being a member of the official PS team?

And another, if the the strategy is to make most recreational players happy and prevent regular players from taking away the weak players from the program, then they are on the right way.

Guess this is the reason most of the pros are leaving the site. Still LMAO at Daniel saying increasing rake is good for players.
