The topic of game toughness has been discussed ad nauseum on this site with the consensus seeming to be that Party Poker offers much looser games than Paradise.
Because of this I was surprised at my PokerTracker stats for my last 15000 hands played at $5/10 hold em on each site. About 62% of 15000 were played at Party.
% seeing flop: Party 29.48% Paradise 35.82%
Average Pot: Party $67.89 Paradise $72.83
One of the reasons for this is that the Paradise lobby provides flop percentages that allow you to pick the loosest games available.
But mostly I think this attributable to the $5/10 Paradise game loosening over the last several months while the Party game may be tightening.
Has anyone else observed this phenomenon?
