UB compared to other sites
 

How does the play at UB/PokerShare compare to other sites (Party, Stars)? I'm thinking specifically about NL10, NL25 and NL50.

I didn't play at UB.
Party is looser.
Stars are tight.

UB seems tighter than the other two I am most familiar with (party and Pacific). With Pacific being the loosest.

I tried pp for a bit a while back, and I found NL25 NL50 much harder to beat than the current site im playing at now which is Expekt. PP had somewhat better players and it was a much tighter game, not saying it was not beatable but you can find easier games. If you play late night at Expekt, thats GMT +1 late night, you will be amazed how much fish and wierd players you will find. You dont even have to be good to earn money at those tables. Plus they have kickass multi tabled guaranteed prize tours.

UB tends to have much tighter players. It's pretty easy to just run them over.

i don't mind tight games, i enjoy running over players.

UB is my favorite place to play. I've been playing a little bit on Party lately and I can't stand it. It's all just either "Make a hand and bet or don't make a hand and check." I much prefer being able to say "I can get him to fold his jacks to a raise" and do it.

"Make a hand and bet or don't make a hand and check."

I would not go so far as to say that.

Eh, maybe I oversimplified it a little bit. My point was just that fold equity is greatly decreased because of the loose play, while at the same time, implied odds increase.

But a loose/aggressive game can be waaay more profitable if you know how to adjust. Loose action and big pots is what makes money in this game.
