Pokerstars was great until it wasn't. Support stopped responding to some of my questions, KYC verification process lasted about a year (not a joke), I was never able to withdraw from them. I have great experiences with FullTilt and many crypto sites, unfortunately some of them seem to suffer from rake building hollywood hands syndrome. GG seems nice for now.
I play Omaha on GG for a month, but its the worst software I have ever seen.
You lose with AAxx allin preflop on 8 from 10 hands.
You cant change backgroud theme on table, you cant block player images on table, you cant get rid of table popup-focus, etc.
And those NoLimit/PotLimit tournaments are annoying. My God, make them or no-limit or pot-limit!
Pokerstars is more simple and relaxing.

You know that AAxx is basically a 65 vs 35 chance against almost every hand right? If the other hand has a flush/connections that you don't, it's almost a flip... don't get too attached to aces preflop, and try to play more postflop (tip that made me money in omaha, and that's the essence about the game)Uranus said:
It is obvious that the issue is money. In fact, most Russian players switched to GG or other less popular sites. In general, I would consider it a correct decision to completely disconnect Russians from the Internet. In general, completely disconnect all of Russia. Russians do not need the Internet because they have a TV.BILTIZ said:
I don't know how much volume you do, but I know the regular volume I do, and I know that's not what happens... I had a vision similar to what you're saying years ago when playing randomly or with low volume. When I started to increase the volume of the Omaha game, and I understood that several times the best hand preflop will lose, I understood that the hole is deeper... don't just play AAxx, play connectors, learn to play in position (this improved my game) you will see that in the same way that you lose AAxx, others will also lose to you with this type of hand. And again, omaha is a post flop gameUranus said:
GG poker they say now it's a well known poker room , maybe the best from the news I read here on CC . I do not understand why they do not come to Greece , they can pay the fee/licence , Greek poker players are too many , I think their investment will pay back. Maybe I will post this also on the GG official thread 🙂
So I was on vacation in an area where GG poker was allowed and decided to play a bit (no plans on withdrawing - just wanted to play).
I really like GG pokers interface.
It’s the best out of all the ones I’ve placed on.
That being said - now that I’m back in the states I’m back to poker stars.
If I could play GG I would. But not worth it being locked out 🙁.

Traditionally most like me, play on pokerstars, at the time it became the largest and best online poker site, however over the years, some promotions and programs that benefited players, were removed, reason why many people migrated to other sites and today GGpoker has taken a great strength in both participation and loyalty programs so I consider in some Not too distant moment will displace PokerStar.

You didnt miss anything.
GG is one of the biggest bullshit card generator I have ever seen.
This is anything but random.
It doesnt favour anyone, but the software is setted to fkk up hands with better odds.
At least on Omaha.
So, if you like to be fkked hand after hand after hand, just play on GG. 🤢
If you wonder why are so many fishes there, well, thats why. Fishes dont resist much on a decent random card dealer, they lose quickly and they realise very soon that they play stupid.
Not on GG, where every hand have equal chances with AA.
