Looking for a new pokerroom

Best way to table select on stars given no reads? I heard you can't datamine so was wondering what methods people employ to avoid tables filled with regs.

[Mr_Nutflush1]

A 50NL table with 18$Av.Pot and >40% Players/Pot is not full of regulars.

And since a 2 weeks or so stars has this new feature that you can show your VIP-Status at the tables. More and more Silverstars and beyond use this for whatever reason and these tend to be the fish. But overall I just order the tables in the Lobby for their Av. pot and join the ones with the highest ppl%

Telescope, its the equivalent of spadeeye for fulltilt or party poker. It searches all the tables for people with high VPIP's. But since datamining isnt possible with it you'll need to have a pretty good database from just playing on the tables. Kind of a bummer for me since i had 500000+ hands on party poker... and now zero for pokerstars. Maybe anyone want to trade or sent me some pokerstars HH's? Would be much appreciated

Good old lobby search like the old days eh

I´m playing mostly on FT and i think it´s great. Good software and alot of games goin on at any given time, plus if you exchange your points and buy a tv or whatever they´ll ship it to europe. I live in sweden and have never had any problems when buyin dvd-players or books or whatever. You get your stuff kind of fast too.

If you can afford I would suggest Poker Edge program. Basically the best program in its class. Shows you all your opponents, best tables to play and their winrate. I don't know if it works with PS now, but it works with FTP

I personally recommend Absolute Poker. I haven't had any problems cashing out or finding soft games. They also have Black Jack (made 500$ in an hour and cashed it out right away ) you can play while waiting for the good tables to open up and they have 30% rakeback. The software isn't the greatest, though, when compared to FTP or Stars (don't ever use the "Enter" key on your keyboard).

Everyone says that, but I disagree. If you know how to play well, its all about bet sizing and playing on house money. Go to the table with $10 and bet 2 each hand. When you're up to $15+, bet 5 bucks a hand. When you're $10 or less, go back down to $2 bets. When you're up to $40, leave the table and go back with another $10. It's definetly not for everyone though.

Why play blackjack when your playing poker is way more +ev? Yeah you might be able to win money really quickly, but in the longrun, poker is a much safer "investment".
