888 or pokerstars who is worse?
Lately I've been wondering who's worse, 888 or PokerStars?
Too many bad beats in both rooms makes the game very stressful!
Maybe I need to change the colors, I think I'm sick of the layouts. I swear I can't play for long at these tables anymore. My eyes and my head are really tired of the appearance of these rooms.

Just take a break. This will save you money and nerves. Don't worry, only your patience will help you achieve good results.

Bad beats are part of the game, and the amount of bad beats is exactly the same, regardless where you play. Both PokerStars and 888 are good rooms, so when you ask, "which one is worst", the issue seem to lie much closer to home. As infonazar say, maybe its time to take a good long break ;)

So that your eyes do not get tired of the monitor screen, you need to use themes on the tables with bed tones. For example, I do not like to play at tables with bright colors. Firstly, it is distracting and not comfortable to play.

As Phil Helmuth said
This is the only way to defeat me!

Yes exactly this. Both rooms are good poker rooms and OP should take a break. If you play low limits and/or freerolls the bad beats are endless, its everywhere the same.

You either run good or you dont. If opponents play any two cards and hit there is not much you can do.

As much as I agree with both rooms being good, I STRONGLY Disagree with suggesting OP should take a break. Why? I'd suggest that OP needs to play a good long stretch of poker. Put in a string of long sessions... so that you can give yourself a chance to get better at the game (& win!!).

You can't win if you're not playing :confused:

I agree with you. Quitting is not a good option, especially when it comes to a long-term game with variances

I think bad beats have nothing to do with which site you play on. It's more about what level you play in the micro you encounter more often than when you play in the high and you can still find them there. It's all about how people play and how risky they want to play. But if other things like the eyes play a factor, then you can probably adjust the settings on the pc or whatever so that it's not so difficult on the eyes, but this doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the poker rooms. I can imagine that if you have the feeling that you're only running in bad beats that you lose hope a little and then tend to tilt and before you start tilting you should probably take a break. But you should just know that winning and losing are both part of it. I just think it's a shame that whenever someone loses, you look for the error in the poker rooms and don't think about analyzing your own game and looking for the errors there

I'm pretty sure, both use the same "Random Suckout Generator". online poker is rigged and ruled by the Russian Sports Betting Mafia, don't expect to win on any of them.

I think they are two good poker rooms, maybe it's best for you to take a break and analyze your game.

Sometimes a break can help to forget about all the stuff that happened. OP seems to blame the sites for his bad run and this is a sign of a bad mindset. Maybe he needs to learn first that its "not always the others" and find leaks in his own game before continuing to play.

You have to get used to poker. That part is really tough.
Regarding software, I always have a back foot.

I think it doesn't matter what room you play in, bad beats will always happen, I know it makes you angry, you have top pair and on the river the villain's card hits, when it happens to me I simply register for another tournament and life goes on. I wish you luck.:)

PokerStars may indeed be head and shoulders above all its competitors, and perhaps it is. But, who is already stepping on his heels is 888poker. Now, 888-poker is inferior to PokerStars except in the amount of traffic, and this is the main problem of the poker room. In other respects (tournaments, promotions, offers for beginners, selection of games), both of these poker rooms are not much different.

Therefore, when choosing a site for playing poker for real money, you can give preference to any of them and you will definitely be satisfied.

See where you have the best results and better experience and play there . But I think bad results or bad beats happen everywhere . So better try to find ways to adapt , new strategies , keep notes on players

I wish there was this option to choose a lighter, more focused look, but there isn't. The animations really draw us away a lot of attention
