Hi. I started playing on Bodog about a month ago and so far am winning. Find it a lot softer than Pokerstars with smaller fields. They have DS with 3000 and SS with 5000 starting chips with 10-12 min levels.

If you have an EU bank account (and are not in the UK) check out PokerStars.fr. They have the same benefits as Stars, except with softer fields. PartyPoker is also a decent bet, and as others have mentioned, 888 is pretty decent. GL!

888 is very soft and having a lot of success on there. The structure starts off quick (skipping some early levels) but slows down a bit in the mid and late stages. Full Tilt is usually quite deep.

Haven't played on Stars because I'm in the U.S. but you'll find much smaller fields on other sites. The small stakes tourneys you speak of is what I'm playing at Americas Cardroom which will field between 150-300 players typically instead of 1000. Some tourneys you start with 3000 chips, some 5000, 10000, and a few mega stacks where you have like 25000. The blinds to start are 10/20 giving you real deep starting stacks depending on the length of the levels.

hi guys,

would like to know your opinion about different online rooms.
I´m currently playing only at PokerStars, but I´m hearing that other sites have a much softer field.

I´m really interested in becoming a better player, and playing against a better field should help develop my game even faster.
However, I´m still trying to build a bankroll, so I was thinking if I should try other rooms as well.

I´m playing basically microstakes ($1-$5), and very important to me is the tourney structure

Blind duration and initial stack size. I really don´t like pokerstar´s structure, since most micro tourneys you start with ~75BB

any inputs on that?
