yo,
I have a limited bankroll so I've been playing 0.01/0.02 on Ultimate Bet. But I saw that Paradise has 0.02/0.04 & 0.05/0.10. I would really like to know what you all think about this site and how the people generally play here (tight/loose etc).

Thanks in advance.

I can't imagine that any of these games would be tight, expect very loose, very multiway and raise means nothing.

i dont play at either so i dont know about the sites themselves, but im pretty sure the .01/.02 and .05/.10 play the same

I have played in these games. I crushed them averaging $2 per hour by multitabling.

Playing at these limits it gets very difficult to rate players. They play anything. The only advice I can give, is if you want to beat these games, you should play with your cards, cause u won´t be able to throw bluffs and semi-bluffs, your raises and all-ins will always get callers and so on.

In respect to your question, Paradise has one of the best software, and in higher limits good players. It offers a wide variety of levels as you can see. I used to play a lot over there.

I've played about 5,000 hands at Paradise starting from Wednesday.

NL 25 and .5/1 are soft in a tight/weak or loose/passive fashion (unlike Party's counterparts which is massive LAG) so there's less variance. However the games are slower and you can only multitable 3 tables instead of the usual 4.

I played about 50 hands at 0.02/0.04 and it's crazy. It massive LAG, betting gets capped pre and post flop a lot.

I've only played a couple hundred hands combined at Paradise 1/2 shorthand and full ring games. The game is surprisingly much tighter (flop seen % is half what it is in .5/1) with better players.

I started at Paradise with VERY limited funds ($20 was all I could really spare) a few months ago. Those low limits seem like a great place to build up. They added .10/.20 and .25/.50 not too long ago, which is also great for bridging the gap between .05/.10 and .50/1. I don't often see tables where the betting is capped preflop regularly, but raises generally don't change the 7-10 people seeing the flop, and there'll always be a couple willing to call you down to and beyond the river.

Also have $2 NL tables as well, occasional $1 multi tourneys, and very soft $5 and $10 sit and go's. It's not uncommon to fold an orbit on a sit and go on a weekend night and see half your table gone within those first 10 hands. I've made alot of progress there and have even sat in a couple $20 sngs, and even there I've found absolutely terrible players lurking in the field.

I also love their UI. I've since opened an account at Stars and I have to force myself to use it because I just don't dig the UI. The micro-limit tables at Stars also seem a little bit more tricky.

In short I quite reccommend it. I've only played for cash at a couple sites and fake money at a few more, but they've got a lock on my fav UI, and the easiest micro-limit money I've seen.
