I play only on Stars and have been wondering if giving the likes of 888 a go might reduce variance due to lower field sizes. What size buy ins have you been playing on 888 and how have you found the quality of oppostion there? 

Yep 888 is great and I got used to the software very quickly. The fields are very very soft and it's a great confidence booster if you have been playing on stars and not cashing much.  Smaller fields are great so you can build a bankroll fast and don't spend hours playing if you don't have lots of time.  There's heaps of micro mtt's and I play mostly the $2 ($500 guaranteed) to the $11 ($900 guaranteed) ones.  The SNG's are very soft too but hard to get a game in the turbo's coz everyone's playing the DON's.  The best thing is that you can get through a tourney in about half the time as on Stars and still cash decent enough for the final table. You do get decent players sometimes when getting deep as well so you can make some good plays then. 888 is very Aussie friendly as well.

Lock is also very soft and small fields (now that they have moved from Merge we can play there from Aus.) There aren't many smaller buy in tourneys though in my time zone but if I can get into a $5-$12 one I'll prob FT more often than not.

Good luck!
