    Looking to make a deposit to either stars or Full Tilt to play low level Mtt's and Multi-Table Sng's. I have rakeback on full tilt, although playing low level mtt's and sng's won't result in a lot of rakeback each month. Which would you recommend based on field sizes/guarantees?

    I've been playing on Full Tilt for the last 4 years or so and I'm starting to get a little burned out of their site despite decent success.

    Um, I'll go ahead and be the first one to say stars, basically because they are a million times better for low limit mtt's/multi-table sng's. And yeah rakeback might earn u like $3 a month, assuming you are not an uber grinder. I mean, Satrs has 4.4/180's /thread.

    I'm in a similar place. I play 90 mans on FT with decent success and was wondering if I should try pokerstars. Do they have deepstack low level multi table sit n go's like FTP?

    My answer to this thread is the same answer I would give to any question involving Full Tilt Poker and a different program: Stick with Full Tilt Poker, as frustrating as it may get at times, there really isn't anything else that I liked better than it. Good luck no matter what you do though!

    i think the only reason you should play on poker stars over full tilt is for the MTTs

    How is the structure? Do you get a double stack or anything, and do they happen frequently? I've wanted to step it up to 180 mans maybe I should transfer some of my FTP money to PS to play in 180 mans.

    For low-level mtts, ftp is wayyyy better than stars. stars has the 180-man sngs but ftp has way more small buy-in tourneys, a much better schedule than stars. the few small buy-in tourneys that stars has usually have like 3000 players which is ridiculous. ftps have good but manageable field sizes.
