In my effort to practice my limit poker I’ve been searching for a site that runs more limit games, tonight I transferred half of my Poker Champs bankroll over to Poker Stars.

I chose Poker Stars because of the large amount of players/tables operating during peak Aussie times (i.e. offpeak everywhere else in the world).

Only downside is no deposit bonus, but at the levels I’m currently playing I wouldn’t be clearing one easily anyway. I’m going to move up a couple of limits before I become a “bonus whore”.

First impressions of the site are good, nice clean layout (once you turn of those annoying avatars), great selection of games, heaps of tournaments, around 5X the amount of players online compared to poker champs and best of all hand histories (if anyone affiliated with Poker Champs ever reads this - IMPLEMENT HAND HISTORIES!) meaning I can finally give Poker Tracker a run.

Will post my thoughts over the coming weeks as I get to know the site a bit better… stay tuned!

P.S. In all the excitement of work Christmas party hangovers I forgot to post “Joke of the Week” last week, I’ll make up for it this week… I hope :)
