In my experience pokies are more predictable than H.maculata. pokies tend to just run right into their hides While an H.maculata If caught out in the open tends to panic and will bolt upwards in any direction. I've only once had a near escape with a pokie and that's because It was my first old world and I did something stupid when rehousing it, since frankly I had no idea what I was doing. I've had quite a few H.macs nearly escape on me ,and this was after quite a few years of dealing with old worlds. Like I said I just find them to be less predictable than pokies, and they can easily keep pace with them in terms of speed. I definitely find pokies to be a bit more manageable, although I am more cautious around some like P.ornata and P.fasciata.
