Already abandoned stars again. Even as a recreational player with realistic expectations of not making any great financial reward from grinding MTTs, it’s just not fun playing PokerStars any more. Sure, they’ll always have the lure of hosting the biggest donkaments to be found anywhere online, with those huge guarantees and large field sizes, but that’s not even necessarily a good thing. There’s no real incentive to take up PokerStars as my primary site again, they offer very little back to poker players who elect to play there and are keen to continually push you towards the casino with poker reload bonuses being used at the casino only, free spins on slots that pay nothing being offered as rakeback and bonus chests containing casino bonuses being awarded to poker players. I gave them a month or so of play, but I can’t stick around. Very disappointing.
