Re: Party blackjack is attracting some sick gamblers

Not to be a broken record...but BJ on the Party site still ticks me off -- and this information only makes it worse.

Re: What sites are best for ring games at .25/.50 and .50/$1 limits?

Paradise Poker is a great choice at .25/.5 full ring.

If LAG action is for you, I would start looking at sites that have 6-max. Perhaps Absolute will fill the bill there.
