i hate to advertise...but i am sick of talk about the tough games at paradise
3/6 5 max - 2 wild players - 1 is seeing all the flops and 1 i would guess 80% - i get KJo on the button and the biggest loony calls UTG and the other loony calls UTG+1 - i raise and the blinds fold - flop is Q109 rainbow - the flop is capped, i cant remember the exact order - turn is a repeat Q, which didnt worry me too much as i had been watching these guys play for a while now - UTG loony and i cap the turn as the other loony folds after contributing 2 bets to the turn - the river is a repeat 9 and i call the loonies bet to be shown 94o i had won enough at the time this occured that i nearly wet myself with laughter when i saw this i have a theory that the % of truly awful players per on-line site is close to constant - much of the hype in these boards about party is an illusion created by the sheer volume of players which means its a bit easier to find a loony if your looking for them stripsqueez - chickenhawk |

Why would you raise with KJo into 5 players? If the play is too loose and wild, play only top hands... KJo is not

I'd raise there too. I feel like I'm doing something wrong if I plan on playing a hand and don't raise the limpers/blinds. Also, the average party player is considerably worse than the average paradise player.

Haha, I definitely feel you. On the NL forum, I asked a question about proper bankroll for 3 tables. The response?
Play one table Absolutely hillarious [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

This play would be routine for me, given that 2 of the players were any-2 limpers and the other two were the blinds.

Speaking for those that look for loonies, it is not an illusion that Party is an easier place to win money than Paradise. It just is. MS Sunshine |

you can espouse your theories all you want. my theory is that while there are certainly plenty of idiots at every site, there are many more per capita at sites whose marketing plans target fish better. do you see paradise marketing to fish? i don't.

you can complain all you want about affiliate marketing, but it is not a coicidence that party/skins have both the most popular and easily accessible affiliate program and the biggest user base of bad players. if paradise and stars did the same thing, it would even things out a lot.
