trouble finding fish on party

[Felipe]

Let's start off by saying this is not a joke. I signed up with party through pokersourceonline.com. I deposit, and hit the .5/1 limit tables. WHAT A MESS! Everybody is either really tight psv, loose aggressive or just messed up in the head. I can't find fishies, I can never get a flop with more than 4 players. What happened to all the "oh party poker is so soft" s#it I used to hear, here and on other forums and word-of-mouth? I'm getting checkraised more in one day playing at party poker than 6 months playing on Paradise poker. The fish live in paradise

What's wrong with Party?
What's wrong with ME?

Do you use pokertracker ? Man I can't play a 3/6 game without running into 7-8 guys in a day who play over 50% of hands, and pay you off huge. But I wouldn't be able to find them without pokertracker, since it ranks my fish for me. Then I buddy list them, and the rest is history...

SO you autorate the players, then add them to buddy list? Then what? use search to find em? that's all?

[mister]

Even if I didn't have the autorate rules in, I could just go based on how many flops players see. Over 35% I'm going to want to sit with you. Over 40-50%, if you're online I'm finding you asap /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

You could technically run pokertracker on a bunch of tables during the day just to scan players. Then you look at your history, find the fish, and add them to your buddy list. Then log in, search for players (buddies), and happy hunting. I stalk the little bastards all the time /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Why did you leave the sunny weather and beaches of paradise, to go to a over invited party?

[Felipe]

(see 1st post) Playing raked hands for PSO promo. 9000pts. 250 hands.

[SippinSoma]

I only read the title, but did you forget to open your eyes and look to your left?

[d10]

In PP, just open a table (or 4) and let it run. Every hand will be saved to your HD and PT will pick it up whenever you import.

Don't be sore. I couldn't resist the reference. You had to know it was a joke ...

Anyway, you really can't get any "help" with this "problem" here.

[Felipe]

JSKILSS. no problem.


What's with the other fellows comment about "looking to my left". Honestly, I don't know what you're trying to tell me... mind explainin'

import manually? or with PT's auto party hand history import?

[AlexHoops]

Auto import will work, but I wouldn't set it to every minute. I usually data mine about an hour or two before I start playing and with empire and euro open plus PT updating every minute my computer sometimes runs pretty hard.

He beat me to it. Perhaps that IS the help.

Party .5/1 are some of the softest games on the planet. If you can't find a good game for you there, one does not exist.

The players you described are the fish. You need to learn to adjust to their aggression.

And if you can't spot them at party 0.5/1...

It might just be a suggestion to look in one of the other forums in the menu to the left. Perhaps Micro-limit (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/postlist.php?Cat=&Board=micro) would be a good one.

He's saying: "Look to your left (or right for that matter) because there's almost certainly a fish sitting right next to you." In other words - he's saying that the 0.50/1.00 game is a fish pond and your view of how solid the game is incorrect.

[hmkpoker]

You're not looking hard enough. Stop whining.

[jskills]

He means that there are so many bad players there it's impossible to not find them - just look one player to your left and you'll likely find one.
