Hi Guys,
I want to start a new post concerning PokerStar without the previous bad blood. I think having more fish on Poker Stars will cause me to play a lot more there. I have always appreciated PokerStars excellent software and tournament format. Having smaller blinds and more chips to start allows better players to shine. The reason I continued to play 80% of my online poker on Party Poker is because I won more $$$ per hour, plain and simple. There was greater variance, but it was more profitable. Playing there so much also made me become a much better short stacked / short handed player and those skills have helped in every other situation... including PokerStars late in the tourneys. Given that there do seem to be more fishy players on PokerStars, I smell blood and I am going to ratchet up my play there.
I also believe that I have become so used to the way sit n go's are played on Party that it will take a small adjustment, but VERY little. If anything, the play on PokerStars is more how I was used to playing before playing so much on Party...so the adjustment to the Party style was much more difficult. Also, I believe playing a lot more on PokerStars will help improve my game because, even with more fish, there seems to be a higher % of good players.

BTW . I play as Neutron999 and look forward to playing in the 2+2 tourneys this week. It can only help my game!
