Is Party still the softest?

Everyone used to say that Party had the softest SNGs. I find them the hardest of the sites I've played at ($10-$50) level.

I'd say that the play is softer at Party than the other sites I've played, but the retarted Party blind structure makes things a crapshoot.

I'm a regular Party patron. Which sites are better for SNGs? WHich have better blind structure.

IMO blind structure is not nearly as important as the quality of the players.

I always tell people when I want to have to think and play poker, I play at PokerStars, when I want to make money, I play at Party....the blinds at Party are terrible, but the players more than make up for the blind structure.

Ultimate Bet recently increased the time for the blind intervals and made it 1500 starting chips instead of 1000. I have found that it had become a MUCH easier game to beat. Be prepared for long tournaments, but better players should be able to win these far more often than on PP IMO.

I didn't say anything about the blind structure. I just have trouble making a lot in Party SNGs.

No, I know, I was responding to some of the replies - not your OP.
