I would like to say that I am done with party. I just can not take there lack of customer support; however, I still feel the games are just too soft and I can easily get into 8 of them at a time without much wait or hassle. What are the 100s like elsewhere? can you find plenty of games for multi-tabling and how soft is the comptition?

I wouldn't care if the party poker customer support sent me hate mail. It's the best site to play SNG's so I play there.

You could try pokerstars, but you'd need to adjust to their structure and I think the average party player is worse...

Stars. Fantastic support and great SNG structure. Their 105+9 Turbos are easy, full of the same weak-tights game after game. The only reason I don't play at Stars is because of their lack of rakeback (hopefully their VIP rewards solve this).

PStars doesn't have enough 100's to more than 4-table iirc. For example, right now there are just 4 105+9's running.

why don't you try playing or watching some 100s at other sites and make a decision?

trial & error I think Edison would have something to say for that.

"trial & error I think Edison would have something to say for that."

True enough, but then Edison didn't have an internet inventors forum. Imagine what he could have done then? Oh wait, there would have been donk's saying "trial and error, trial and error Edison. No use trying to gain from the knowledge of others."

thanks though

Sure, why not ask a forum where half of it thinks a group of dyslexic chimps can beat the 109s and the other half thinks the 11s can't be beaten.

Again, true enough. More importantly, your answer was funny!

However, my original question was not about whether anyone was beating them, but if they were soft and -- more importantly -- were there enough games to 8 table. Again, still wondering. Thank you to anyone with any experience at the 100+ level at sites other than party.

POTD without a doubt.

This is human nature though. Once you figure something out is is very easy. Until then it is very hard.

Ask a hundred 4-5 year olds if it is possible to ride a bicycle with only two wheels and half will tell you it is impossible and the other half would say it is easy.

As for real info for the Edison inventors forum.

I am on Poker Room at 3:30 am on a Sunday. There are two 100's running. There are 5 50's running. There are 3 30's running.

I play the 20's or 30's and lately have tried the 30 player SNG's to some moderate success. Will report when the sample size is meaningful but then again they are not really Single Table Tournaments so I will keep it to myself.

My experience with Poker Room has been great. I have found plenty of fish. Less maniac fish than party but tasty fish just the same. Be warned that this is at low levels, 20's 30's an occasional 50.

The software is horrible, horrible horrible. I miss PokerStars and UB software and may move back there.
