Millar recently announced his departure from PokerStars, citing disagreements with the company's recent decisions. He mentioned that PokerStars introduced a currency exchange fee, increased the rake, and removed certain tables, which he found unacceptable.

Millar discussed the impact of PokerStars' changes on high-stakes players and the VIP program. He plans to continue playing poker online, despite his departure from PokerStars.
