Yes, I can certainly relate to that difficulty. MTTs are also my main earner, but it is difficult to do job, family, and life generally while fitting in a reasonable weekly programme of tourneys.

To expand on my comment on Titan. I like the graphics but I can`t win - not a slur on this site , moreso my play on this site, and I don`t know why.
Having thought about things, the prblem I have is that I should stick to what I am good at for now, that being MTT. The problem you have with playing MTT`s are the time taken - to play a good MTT you need to put aside at least 4 hours +
So I end up playing SNG`s. I`m not desperate at SNG`s - my big losses came some time back when I moved up to silly stakes for my level of skill - I would play $50 - $100 buy in SNG`s.

I agree with Jagsti, Pokerstars has much better players on it. In fact you could have not put which site you did poorly at and I woulda filled in for you that Stars was your nemisis. Again, what Jagsti said, there are plenty of fish there, but you have to find them/table select properly.

IMO I find a huge difference in the level of play between Stars and Party. I play 25nl and 50nl 6 max cash, and party has some mega horrendous, fishy players. Stars has a lot more knowledgeable players, but fortunately there are so many players on Stars you can still find the fish.

I play pokerstars and Full Tilt Poker
I like pokerstars better because im mainly a sng player - obviously ps wins in that catagory.
Full Tilt Poker has more smaller tourneys imo, but same lvl of players as pokerstars.
Overall I prefer pokerstars but really it doesnt matter.... perhaps you would notice a change from the different websites(especially the smaller ones) if you are a ring player but im not.

[quote=Ronaldadio;700060]Hi all.
I`ll dissapoint some of you straight away - this is not a "This site is rigged" thread
I have played 4 sites in the 2 years I have been playing poker and I can`t understand why my results are so dramatically different!!!
Maybe the people are different thats the reason....levels of play also
I do know why my results are not as good on Pokerstars. It is because I try to build up my FPP and I find ring games so different to MTT`s - I don`t think I have the right mix of patience and fearlessness (If that is a word which I doubt!!!)
thats because they are so different!!
I just can`t get away with Titan whatever I play. Laddies I did well when it was my only site but it has now gone bad. I get most of my success playing MTT on Party.
Do any of you guys have similar experiences or any thoughts as to why it should be???

Hi all.

I have played 4 sites in the 2 years I have been playing poker and I can`t understand why my results are so dramatically different!!!
I play Titan, Ladbrokes, Pokerstars and Party poker - so not small sites and I can`t believe the level of player is that different from one site to the next.
