pokerstars

awesome site, suggest it to any online poker players. good freerolls, sit and gos and lots of live money tables.

There is a problem with the freerolls on this site though. Most of them require Frequent Player Points. That means you arent really playing for free. Also, the freerolls that are FREE and dont require FPP have like 30000000 people in them. Just my opinion.

I agree about the freerolls for FPP not realy being free. I play alot of the freerolls at pacific poker. They have daily freerolls for cash, seats in 30000 gar turnys, satilites to 100k and 250k weekly tournys. Great site in my opinion

heh, sorry for bitching but i can't see any freeroll tourney today at pacific

freerolls

i would just like tosay that i have used quite alot of different poker sites and feel that pokrstars is a good site but the freerolls are very hard to get any where near winning because of the amount of playesra in them and also hey dont give u cash staright away

 

[titch11]

my opinion

i have to say that vc is a greatsite because it gives u 2 dollar giveaways instant cash and also not many playesr in this so u can get a little cash and hopefuult build it also they have quizzes often throughtout the week where u can gain prises of ap and cash.....n ice

in my opinion pokerstars is a great site as long as you arent easily frustrated by the river or turn

Ahhh you won't see freerolls listed in Pacific's tournament schedule until an hour or so before they start. They are unique in that they do not announce their freerolls until registration starts. Good luck getting into them they intentionally change the times up so you have to just get lucky and be logged in when one pops up in the tournament schedule.

I havn't played at pokerstars recently. Are they still doing good? last i played there people kept giving me bad beats, so i left.

 

[Rails]

Maybe its just me, but it really seems like the turns and rivers on free games at PS are completely BS. Suckouts EVERYWHERE! Move to real money, and that seems to go away. I know that sounds ridiculous, but it sure seems like it

 

[ryan814]

i agree with with all the tables but the freeroles arnt good because over 1500 people will sign up for only a 50$ freerole

This is for MI202
Yes your very right.....they're so many bad beats on that web site and thats the only place ive seen such things happpen.......i quit playing there for the same reason.....the poker their is so unrealistic.....its a JOKE!!!

 

[Kingdeuceoff]

i dont like playing freerolls any more unless its restricted to a forum like this...i also think that pokerstars hands are unreal...i mean i know they have a "totally random" hand generator...but ive seen some ridiculous stuff.

 

[pcktrockts]

i think pokerstars has good payouts on tourneys

First of all, Zack864, there are only a handful of freerolls on Pokerstars each week that require FPP's (Frequent Player Points). By a handful I mean like 2 or 3.

The vast majority of "freerolls" on Pokerstars are called FreePlays and charge Play Money Chips as the buy-in. You start with 1000 play money chips and the usual entry fee for these FreePlays is 300+20 or 2000+100. These tournaments award play money chips as their payout.

The actual freerolls on Pokerstars:

The final table (8 or 9) players from these freerolls make it to another tournament that has a cash prize pool.

The average # of players in a freeroll is 1500-6000 depending on the type of freeroll.

In my opinion, PokerStars has the BEST (and most comprehensive) play money system on the internet. If you are looking to play every once in a while for fun or want to practice you rpoker skills, I would recommend PokerStars. They even have play money sit-n-gos with 9-45 entrants with buy-ins ranging from 300-25000 in play chips!

 

[maxsanders_13]

i had previously played at PokerStars but i got sick of the 6000 freerolls just to get entry into another tourney. I dleted it. Don't download it in the first place is what i say

 

[trombley]

in my opinion i find full tilt to be a really good site, their freerolls may be at odd times in the day (1:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.) but only 900 people in each free roll and they are held 2 dialy.

also im kind of new to the online poker scene, i am just wondering what "vc" stands for

 

[chicubs1616]

PokerStars has the best tournament system around, so if you like playing for real money in both cash games and tournaments, there is a huge selection of games for you.

Multi-table tournaments have buy-ins from $1-$530

Sit-n-Gos range from buyins at $5.50-$1030

Heads up sit-n-gos range from $5.25-$5100

Hold'em cash tables start at .01/.02 for NL and .02/.04 for limit and go up to 10/20 for NL and 100/200 for limit

Omaha / Omaha H/L tables start at .01/.02 and go to 15/30 and 75/150

Stud tables start at .04/.08 and go to 30/60.
