Default Re: Party CFO conversation: Trip report

[ QUOTE ]
In short: My impression, along with the impressions of a lot of other people, I guess, was that Party regards us primarily as a hassle, and that they see their business model as catering to an ever-rotating group of recreational gamblers. This conversation would seem to strengthen that impression.

I don't think that's true. Wasn't Party one of the first sites to allow 3 and 4 tabling? Sure that helped them, but it also helped the serious gambler. Party needs lots of games going at all hours, so they need all types of gamblers. Of course the optimal customer is the "fish" that regularly deposit money, but they need all the customers they can get.

My guess is Party is like any business, looking to grow. One way is to "steal" customers from competitors and the other is to get into other aspects of gaming.

I don't think this change is aimed at serious gamblers, I think it's aimed at the skins and at rakeback.
