I've seen a few FTP specials on Pokerstars, but nothing I'd consider unreal - definitely not at the same rate. Mind you, I haven't been playing on there for as long as I played on FTP, so maybe they'll flip the switch on me soon once I reach The Magical Amount(tm). What I notice the most is that people fold a LOT more on Stars. People will even fold on a re-raise pre-flop if they're bluffing, something that I almost never saw on FTP. There are a lot of donkeys that will play 50% of their hands and bet out on the flop 100% of the time (of course they check if they hit their hand extra hard - lol), but I have yet to see a single one last the distance. On FTP it was almost a given that in an 18-man SNG that the top 2 would have massive chip stacks built on insane beats. I mean, think about it - if FTP was a clean game, 90% of their players would be cleaned out so fast they'd never come back. Another possible motive for juicing the cards if you ask me.
Check out this youtube video of a guy going postal about FTP: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEAT_MCsh0I[/url] (warning: much inappropriate language). LOL.
