Full tilt is meant to be quite good, I'm gonna have a look at that when I've reached my target on PKR.

I joined PKR earlier today, kind of like the way it's like a proper game, the way you see everything. Quite addictive.

Just won my first tournament on PKR, granted it was just a '10 cent giveaway' but it's good practice, still getting used to online play so it's not too bad I suppose.

I'll keep updating this as there's a good few players on here, I cashed a small amount in a tournament last night, 32nd out of about 400 and I just won a seat to a masters stage 2 tournament, 3rd out of about 100. Not bad, I find I do better in the bigger tournaments as oposed to small cash tournaments.

I just came 3rd in the masters stage 2 and won a ticket to stage 3, which starts in an hour. If I get through that I'll be in the 'NEXT PKR MASTERS GTD $100,000' which should have some BIG cash payouts.

I used to play on Ladbrokes, never won much, think I did win about £30 on one hand once though. Might start playing again, feeling the urge after reading this.

Try PKR, although you may not like the way it's played IE the characters, looks like a better version of the sims but I prefer it. Loads of free rolls, satellites, sit and go's, cash games etc etc. The masters stage 3 I'm in now is worth $50 buy in, no chance I'd pay that.

I find PKR is good... For the EXACT reason people hate it!
Pro's will hate PKR... Stupid people who like shiny things will love PKR.
Therefore it's v.easy to win money on PKR.

Not really, there's a lot of pros using PKR, hundreds if not thousands. Big cash tournaments/TV tournaments, big tournament satellites all have big buy ins so you have to be a good player just to make it to the first break.

Played PKR for while end of last year, became to addictive and one day I kept losing on good hands and thought sod it so unistalled it and haven't been back since.
Made about $500 in total, and biggest win was $100 in a tournament.

Put $20 into my pokerstars account, went down to $5, then got back up to $50 so can't complain 
Did a 10 man sit'n'go with a mate as well, $10 buy in. He came first, I came second (I pushed with pocket kings, he had A 9 and he hit his ace )He won $50, I won $30, so not a bad day overall .

I signed up to Pokerstars ages ago but wasn't keen on it, don't think I'll bother with any other sites now.

I use pokerstars because it's the only site I like that's compatible with my HUD (google PokerTracker). I play on PKR because friends do, and that's where my uni hold our weekly tourny.
