I don`t recommend 888poker ;) In my opinion there is an algorithm, but maybe it happens only with me :)
I do recommend PS ;)

pokerstars have higher payouts because of more players. So its good for making money but the Random number generator is more misleading and makes it hard.

888 poker has lower players and less payouts but rng is good if you play decently fine.

So if you want safety its 888 and if you want payouts its pokerstars.

Hi everybody!
I would like to ask if you were worried about playing in Poker Stars or 888Poker and why ...

Either poker site is not necessarily harder to play but mostly players are looser therefore harder to steal pots. online poker simply is more luck then skill.

I personally like 888 simply because of it promotional prizes.

experts says pokerstars are tougher than 888. Personally I prefer to start with pokerstars because tournaments full faster than 888

Look , the key question here is "where is easier to win money?" I believe, that it,s easier to build your bankroll at 888 Poker. You can find there lots of good promotions and freerolls everyday. And what can you find on pokerstars? 10$ freerolls with 10000 people inside, useless promotions and strong players, that just waiting you to take your money. I don,t remember the time, when i played last time on pokerstars on my own money. It was really long ago. So for me, the choice is pretty easy.

I play in both 888 and PokerStars.
PokerStars leader is better played there!
888 - :) GSH nightmare.

But the minimum withdrawal in 888 = 10 $
And the minimum withdrawal in PokerStars = $ 50

PokerStars has more players overall, so that means there are also more skilled players. But if you are playing low limits, there should be no difference. It is more like layout preference.

If you just start playing poker, then 888 will be better for you

You can meet a lot more good players on poker stars so it's toghter to play and 888 is played by some newbies. On the other side 888 has more high-rollers kind of tournaments because not many players register for example 109$ tournaments, so it's harder to get in the money, and PokerStars on the mentioned 10$ tourney has about 6 times more player, so for me, personaly it's easier to get innto money when more players are in play. And the more players, the more money for winning. There is always bigger motivation when there is a bigger prize for winning

I prefer PokerStars. The main reason is the number of players. But also poker software is not unimportant.

NOTE: The rakes at 888 poker are higher (than on pokerstars - in cashgames) thats why you don`t see as many good players on 888 Poker. But i guess you get more reckless players on 888 Poker basicly more fishes on cashgames, not sure about tournaments

I prefer 888 if you really want to start off your poker career or just have a fun time. Move onto PokerStars if you can play at that level, I usually get unlucky when I play on PokerStars though. From my experience, PokerStars is tougher, never managed to win that much compared to 888.

It's harder for me to play on 888 played not for long I did not like it, I got used to pokerstars they can conveniently search for any tournaments or games but it's for the amateurs who like the luck in the rooms

I play in both, PokerStars is tougher because play more pro players and crazy fish who play all-in on 2,7 etc. and hit :)

In general, I agree with you, but for me the software plays an important role. So I choose PS

888poker is more softer and slower than PS. PS are more sharks and better players, but the ambiance on PS is more suitable for me than 888poker

depends on the exact game

i find 888poker has more pro players vs amateurs then pokerstars...imo 888poker is thus tougher. but it also depends on the games u play. what do u guys think of betonline ?
