I completely agree. Plus, it gives FT a direct advantage over many of its competitors. It's the only site I know of that lets players know when and where pros are playing (by virtue of its red table option). Cunningham playing at a 1/2 table doesn't say, "Hey, I'm broke." It says, "Hey, poker's a game anyone can play, and I'd like to see if you can match wits with me for a while."
As much as I like Stars, the only time I ever really see those big-name players around is either (A) during high-stakes games I can't afford, or (B) in highly publicized MTTs.
