State specific sites (US) worth it?

Hello all!
It’s been ages since I’ve played poker online. Located in the US and I’ve largely avoided poker sites due to the hassle of withdrawing.

online poker is slated to come to my state soon... and I was wondering - are the state based sites (like poker stars NJ) actually worth playing on?

Is there enough tracking without shared player pools for tournaments, sit and go’s, etc across multiple but in levels?

Appreciate your feedback!

On pokerstars pa we have a good size player pool. Im looking forward to shared player pools eventually of course but enough in pa for good games. I play on several sites, for years, stars has a big enough pool to where they are my current favorite site. I would say jersey would be the same.

Do you prefer pokerstars PA in comparison to other offerings, like ACR?

I currently reside in MI and although poker hasn’t launched yet, it should soon (1-2 weeks). casinos / sports betting just launched Friday (fox bet - poker stars parent company).

MI already passed inter-state poker laws, so it’s only a matter of time. Hopefully 888/wsop will also come to MI; however, they don’t currently have a partnership with local casinos (poker stars does though).

Trying to figure if I wait for poker stars to launch or resume trying out ACR. (I played on black chip years ago when they had awesome loyalty programs).

I have also tried global poker - but I dislike them ever since they removed paypal as a payment option. Plus tons of bots / donks on that site.

Yes i prefer pokerstars pa to acr. I can agree with you about globals deposit options but would never not play a site because of donks, thats your profit.
