From Party to What?
There has been a couple of posts lately to the effect that the fish are no longer as prevalent at Party. I happen to agree with the posters, to a degree. IMO...The tables have tightened up somewhat in the last two months, especially at the $50-$200 no-limit, full ring games.
My first guess is that this is a seasonal thing, that the college kids are back at school working on papers and have less time for the game. My second thought is that negative reinforcement is beginning to have its effect and that the players that have been consistently CRUSHED by poor play are starting to get wiser. But to be honest, I have no idea why the play seems different; yet after a couple of thousand hands, over the last two months, it just does. [Flamers please note: I am not experiencing a downswing, just a reduction in profits. This is not a bad beat post in disguise.] So, can someone recommend another site to try out with these buy-in limits in mind? UB? Pacific? Bodog? Diversification never hurts, right?

Re: From Party to What?
I have found Paradise Poker to be quite loose at low-limit HE tables. I have not played NL there.
I am told that Bodog has some loose/crazy play at their NL tables, but I have not played there before.

Re: From Party to What?
I haven't played on Party since they split from Empire. Not out of protest. I just wanted to spend some time at other sites and work off some bonus opportunities.
I've played quite a bit on Stars, Full Tilt, UB, some of the cryptos, and smaller sites. I usually play $3/6 6 max with an occasional $2/4 or $5/10 table thrown in the mix. The games are really great on each site. Very profitable. I thought they were on Party too though. I play 6 max and heads up games. I think they play is horrible in a short handed situation. The weak/tighties seem to flock to the full games and the LAGs flock to the short handed games (in general). If you can stand the swings, I would suggest short handed play on ANY site if you are playing low limits.

Re: From Party to What?
College kids aren't working on their papers. They are attending mixers and trying to get laid.
The WSOP just aired and it is definitely not going to cause a reduction in fish. Party isn't drying up. The fish aren't swimming upstream to some other site. Wherever you go they are there. You need to find them. Work on your table selection skills.
