Stars vs tilt

Hey guys, New to the forum but love the site. Brokerstar seems like a legend.

I play $5HUSNG on stars but have a rakeback on FT.  I tend to play on stars because i ruined my FT stats when i first started playing and my pokerstars stats are pretty good for micro stakes.

Should i be playing on FT because of RB since im trying to build my BR?

Many thanks.

Either is fine. You may lose a little rakeback by playing on Stars, but you do get bonuses.

The structure is faster on Full Tilt, so I would base your decision on which structure you prefer. I wouldn't worry about your stats on Full Tilt though, in fact it may be a good idea to put them right now, whilst you are at the micros, where it really doesn't matter at all.

Thanks for the reply Blazing. I might just stick with stars since im used to the slower structure which might help with variance.

Is there any advantages playing a slower blind level game?

if your just learning i would say stick with stars as the slower structure will be better for you

For what it's worth, I actually prefer Full Tilt, even though I am playing mainly on Stars right now. Just I prefer the software, and the slightly quicker blind structure suits how I play better I feel.

How are you fixed for playing both ? Like so many games on each a day/week or whatever. You don't have to play just one site. I intend to play both very soon too.

The advantage of the slower blind structure is that it should give a slightly bigger edge to the better player, but this isn't always true, if your end game is rock solid, you wont have any problems beating the Full Tilt regs for the same ROI.

I can't really say either way, cos I like both sites. I think above the $10s, there are more fish on Full Tilt, and a few more decent players on Stars, but there is still plenty of dead money to go around on either.

I would prefer just playing on one site. I think my game is good for a beginner at HUSNG. I think my intentions are to play HUSNG on stars and HU Cash on tilt.

Thanks for the reply, much appreicated.
