dont worry about whether stars is "harder" - the more you do this the more you will convince yourself its true regardless if it is or isnt, and that will inevitably lead to you making poor decisions at the tables etc etc.
just take this break to go over all the basics you've learnt recently, how to adapt them to different players etc, and when you start playing just focus on ABC poker. dont start each session thinking "this is probably going to be harder" - because you'll only be making it seem harder than it really is.
gl slev, props to you for the GS thing as well.
