when i played on stars (just 2 months ago) there were plenty of people willing to stack off with TPTK when you have a set. quit trying to "outplay" your opponents. that's probably your problem, as it was for me when i struggled to beat party. i've since stopped trying to outplay my opponents, regardless of the site or who the player is. that may sound odd, but the moment you try to "outplay" your opponent is the moment you start making dumb plays and unprofitable bluffs. just stick to ABC poker. when i played on stars there were plenty of regs willing to stack off with TPTK.
