I started my poker game at PokerStars. Now I have tried to play in many poker rooms, but pokerstars remains the best for me. I don't win a lot of money, I just like pokerstars software, it's more convenient and understandable for me. And yet, as someone already wrote the withdrawal of funds to 888, this is a very long time. I don't think 888 can't technically speed up this process, it's most likely done on purpose to keep the money in their system. During this time, you can change your decision to withdraw funds and start playing again.
You got to the point. That's exactly what I mean. They could speed up the cashout process but prefer to lose players replying that they don't need me to play there if I don't accept their cashout policy and really....the funds are there to give up the cashout and play with that money again. Slow draws put people off playing in the room and they lose players. I particularly don't feel like playing on 888 just for that reason. Pokerstars and Americas Cardroom are great for withdrawals and everything. partypoker I only withdraw in PIX because it is the way of depositing and withdrawals take a few hours if they are done in working hours so I don't know how withdrawals to virtual wallets work.

I have an account on both rooms. The fields are very different and the software as well. The players level is higher on Pokerstars so, if you are a beginner, choose 888 to learn without wasting too much money.
If you like playing seriously then choose Pokerstars.

Pokerstar runs very smooth and it has a great look.
But it is a very tough place to play.
It is much easier to win a dollar on 888.
888 has some good free rolls.

All in all I prefer 888.

888 looks better from the side of freerolls. Therefore, as a beginner player, I choose this site.

What is your favorite and why?
I love the pokerstars layout and traffic, but I hate the rakeback. The 888 doesn't have a lot of foot traffic and it has ok rakeback, but I hate the whole layout. (If you put the two together, they don't come close to GGpoker). this is what i think

My favorite is 888. PokerStars is not as popular as it used to be. 888 always has a lot of interesting promotions and a lot of daily freerolls, thanks to which you can easily increase your bankroll.

In the US I prefer 888 (wsop.MI.com skin) in terms of look and feel.

BUT in terms of actual tournament selection (I only play tournaments) I am exclusive to poker stars.

Especially given that poker stars is the first site to combine US player pools it’s just a no brainer atm.

I’m probably stuck playing PokerStars for the foreseeable future until WSOP.MI catches up.

In my opinion, both rooms deserve attention, but I prefer 888

I tried playing on 888 but I don't like the interface. I am used to several older rooms and play them. Pokerstars is still without competition for me

I've always played at Pokerstars, but lately I've preferred 888poker, because of the variety of tournaments and free tournaments offered, which are a good option for bankroll maintenance

Take the test in both in the modalities you usually play and then choose, by high it will be the PS, by the speed of service (cashout/support)and field.

In my opinion, 888 has quite a few advantages that PokerStars does not have. 888 has a lot of freerolls and interesting promotions thanks to which you can create a bankroll practically from scratch. If you have just started playing poker, then 888 will be the best option for you.
