It turns out that at the beginning, poker stars had a lot of promotion, gradually was eliminating the good promotion, trying in one way or another to recover players lost to other platforms, but it turns out that all the initiatives go wrong, and the spell, turned against the sorcerer.

I agree that their rewarding system is not as good as it used to be.
You have to play alot before you can open a chest.
Most of the time those chest are not worth it.

I hope people do talk with their feet and leave the rewards they offer are among the worst ive ever seen in 15 years of poker. But people dont seem to care about how they get treated on there they still have by far the highest traffic. party poker seems to be a great alternative though as well as ipoker skins and microgaming skins. All offer good reward schemes between 20% and 35%. Which far outweighs the 10% the vast majority get on stars.

The rake rewards they use to give were grate,the new stars reward system isnt very good, but still they have the lowest rake on micro,so they will be around for some time i think.

PokerStars has a lot of promotions and shows going on all the time. They have really good software too. And to keep it going it's going to cost more. They aren't finished yet. I'm sure they will be around in 10 years.

He is the spokesman for PokerStars who said "more rake is better" to try to justify the first rake increase. But I think you knew that already, you just wanted to take a shot at me. Go ahead take a few more. What ever makes you feel like a man.

new owners are interested in taking without giving and they have poor vision of future development

pokerstars reward system really sucks and is terrible i agree but at the same time you wont find a better software and surely wont find such interesting tournaments and nice gtd prizepools at any given time of the day !! hopefully they would make the rewards better but at the same time even with shitty rewards other rooms cant compete with it.

I agree with you that most of the time the chest is not worth it, but I give pokerstar the benefit of the doubt and maybe now these changes will improve the prizes.

I too preferred as it was before and continues to hope that we can again benefit from better promotion for the future.

Yes I also do not like the situation with rewards ! Unfortunately, they have a lot of good tournaments . And it works for them ! Can the situation change ? It's not just us against this reward system !? I think they'll change it after all .

Yes pokerstars has gone to the crapper. Poker school made the masters league so to play it you have to pay 25 cents, no more freeroll unless you are new to poker school.

I agree, I think Uber had similar tactics to build up the market share, at least here in Croatia. Once they gained a huge MS they started to increase prices. But guess what, they also faced a serious drop in the demand. I love free market :)

I really doubt it
They have been changing it constantly the last two years and it was always worse than before.

If enough people complain and more importantly enough leave, Pokerstars would be crazy not to react. Hopefully they do it sooner rather than later.

You are right, yesterday after writing that I gave the benefit of the doubt to pokestars, and in happy hour I got a box the prize was 9 starscoins, only that, although that is not a large measure since I have not been able to play more and only it was a box but they indicate to me that the prizes did not improve to be honest is the worse prize that I have obtained in these years in pokerstars
