If you play Poker Stars today and you play the low stakes cash games, it is virtually impossible to "beat the game" unless you are literally the best of the best (1 in 10,000). Chew on that....
 
the problem is many try to just out cash you . They sit down with a big bankroll and just keep re buying till they end up ahead . unfortunately because many there can't keep re buying when he sucks out . They quite often can do it .

This is where bankroll management comes in . In Multi rebuy
tournaments most people expect to rebuy 3 or 4 times so your bankroll should be 3 or 4 times bigger than for conventional tournaments of the same buyin.
 
It seems to me that this applies only to cash games and for MTT it is insignificant.
 
When the word "PokerStars" is in your thread title - there is a 99.99% chance your thread will go in Poker Rooms or Tournaments -not in General Poker. 🙂

Even those players will never move on to the next level

I agree 100 % doesn't change the sickness of their play

This depends on their bankroll and if they actually want to many of them purposefully play a lower level to give them this edge . If you come to a casino and the buy in is $200 on a $2 no limit game and you only bring $200 like I would estimate in BC that is approximately 50 to 60% of them and player B comes with 2000 dollars 9 X out of 10 you will leave broke . online they play small tables because thats where they find all the players overplaying their bankroll as many of them have a few bucks from a free roll and that's why they are playing the small buy ins or small cash tables . Now if on the cash table you watch for the guy who buys in for the odd amount lets take a .05 .10 table $10 buy in I see player buy in with 2..47 chances are that's his bank roll so he can not keep calling you and he will fold a lot of medium to med/high hands to a shove because he doesn't want to bust .So there is a reason to push him .If he does call well can hope for a suck out .

This is not how I normally play as I like to buy in full pop ti maximize my winnings but it is possible to overwhelm smaller players this way
 
Im confused, is the Poker Stars Rake too high at that level, or is the play too good? what was the complaint?
