Do u lot only play european sites? Dunno why you're not all on Stars, candy from a baby that place n tournies fill up in nano seconds.

Poker Stars looks absolutely naff. Hate the look and feel of the tables, so old fashioned, and really unclear what's going on because of all the colours and unnecessary details.

Oh agree with that defo. But u can change it completely. Goto options and choose theme. I use the 'hyper-simple' theme...cos I'm err hyperly simple? :doh Anyway turn off the avatars too and select 4 colour deck..now see the difference, virtually everyone uses this theme. But there's plenty of others to choose also.

Urgh - 4 colour decks are horrible. I can't use them.

[Profit Seeker]

I didn't like them at first but get used to it and helps for missing flushes when multitabling or not concentrating 100%.

[mathare]

I really don't agree with 4 colour decks. If you're not concentrating enough to see a potential flush, or multitabling so much that you miss it then you need to give the game more attention. Missing flushes is a warning sign that you're not on top of your game and should either refocus or give up for that session. By using a four colour deck you lose that warning system and may continue to play on when you should really quit

i once saw a pro tourny on tv and a guy didn't spot he had a flush and folded

4 coloured decks are a must in my opinion. Why give yourself the opportunity to make a mistake? Eliminating one possible barrier to success seems a no brainer to me. All online pro's will use 4 colour decks.

And pokerstars is great, especially the 180 seat $4, $12 and $22 tourneys. Just got 2nd in a $12 for $396

I just find 4 colour decks a massive distraction. My mind wanders as I internally seethe at the silly colours and I lose concentration. Give me a standard 2 colour deck every day
