What site boasts the weakest limit players?
Party? Empire? Paradise? Another site I don't even know about?

Re: What site boasts the weakest limit players?
No site is going to boast that its own players are weak.
That's sort of like a bar advertising "We have the sluttiest women." While this may be true and is very good news for the men (sharks), the women (fish) are not going to patronize a place where they are associated as such. |

A site would never boast about having the fishiest players because--even though most people want to play against bad players and thus will be attracted to a site that claims to be full of fish--it requires the site to insult its clientelle and calling your customers idiots (or sluts) is usually not good for business. His main mistake, I think, was in assuming that the title of the post was asking for sites that literally boast about having the weakest players, rather than merely meaning which sites have the weakest players, which I think is what the questioner intended. |

Re: What site boasts the weakest limit players?
Sure, I will explain my reasoning.
First, let me agree with you that it would not be good for a site to "insult" its clients. Think of it this way, though: If a site were known to have a tremendous amount of "great" and "skilled" players, would you want to play there? Would you pick the "skilled" site over one that was known to host very poor players? More importantly, which site do you think the vast majority of the public will pick? It would not make sense for anyone to choose to play at a table where they would be surrounded by better players, and surely lose their money. On a related topic, even if a site "adverstises" that they host the poorest players, most of the poker players who play at that site would assume they are not, themselves, these "poor players" anyway, as most poker players overestimate their ability. In effect, the site really wouldn't be 'insulting' anyone. Just my thoughts... Adam |

Re: What site boasts the weakest limit players?
First, let me say that I did focus on the word "boasts". That being said...if I'm a new player, I may join a site that says they have the "loosest games" or the "most action", but I would not want to play somewhere that said "Our players our weak."
However, if you ever find a bar with as many slutty women as there are poker fish, sign me up! |

Women know they are women but fish think they are sharks. So it pays for a site to boast it has a lot of fish. It attracts more fish who fancy themselves sharks.

Adam [/ QUOTE ] yeah that really is some retarded reasoning. it's not like they'd be advertising "we have sthief09, the weakest player on the internet!" advertising soft games would only do good for them |

Re: What site boasts the weakest limit players?
Just for clarification------I didn't mean that a site would boast it has weak players-----I meant "which site has the weakest players"-----poor use of the word "boasts" on my part-----it's that fancy language I learned in school
