    I play most of my online stuff on Party Poker.

    I'm going to switch over to Boyle because it's easy for me to deposit money in store.

    Party Poker have a pretty wide range of Sit and Go's from $1 up to what seems like millions haha.

    Are Boyles similar? Do they have such a big range of Sit & Go's?

    Thanks

    What way are you gonna deposit? I have played on boyle and paddy, switched to pokerstars about 2 weeks ago and play low limits, its a very good site defo the best around

    Well i used to deposit with my card but that's too easy if you know what i mean? I could deposit with a click of a button and i was depositing more than i had been intending.

    So i can deposit inside Boyle Sports bookie stores into my online account, which means i can only deposit what i have to spare.

    There are more players on Boylepoker (ipoker network) than there are on Party so you will have just as much choice, if not more.

    The software is different and when you're used to one, the change feels weird, regardless of whether the new one is better or worse.

    The blind levels and lengths are also different and one may suit your game better than the other.

    Being able to deposit and withdraw in their shops is a big plus for Boyles.

    As has been said, Stars is (probably) the best site, it's certainly the biggest.

    You can deposit to Stars in shops that do paypoint, but withdrawing isn't as handy as in Boyle's..

    like buyin phone credit, go to any shop that has "pay point" and ask for a paysafe card, if they dont know where it is on the machine tell em to look under the emoney menu they come in €10,€25,€50,€100

    when withdrawn from pokerstars you can either get sent a cheque or banktransfer both take a while though
    boylepoker way easier

    Wow, that's great! I'm definately going to try that.

    Is there a minimum deposit using this Paysafe method on PokerStars?

    $10

    but i just found out last week that the paysafe cards can be used like a credit card ye dont have to use all the credit all at once, you can buy a €50 card deposit $10 stars and still have €40 credit left on the slip for whenever

    That's quality! I'm definately doing that.

    I'm just going into my exams next week and i'm planning on playing alot of poker over the summer. This will help immensely!

    The signup bonus on pokerstars is 100% up to $50, so ideally you don't want your first deposit to be less.

    Put a message in your signature that you'd like someone to refer you to Stars in return for a fair share of what they get and wait for your message box to fill up :D

    Hi,

    I joined stars from boyle only two weeks ago and also play S&G. I have to say it is very good. You need to be quick on the mouse getting a table as the traffic is amazing. The speed (5 min) 45 player games only last about 1 hr 15 mins.

    I have also tried some of the cash tables 10/25c to start with and found the play a bit tighter than boyle.


    There is a good section where you can change the layout of tables etc which can be a bit easier on the eyes!!!

    They can also mail you your stats promptly.

    Good luck..:)
