Difference Between PS $25 and Party $25

[aLittleFish]

I'm well aware there has prolly been a hundred threads about this but I haven't been able to find one that focuses directly on this issue. I can only find bits of info here and there. If anyone knows a link to a thread like this already, that would more than suffice. If not, a little advice would be appreciated.

I've decided to transfer my money from PokerStars to Party Poker for a couple of reasons. First, in an effort to begin bonus whoring and second, it seems everyone here says Party is where the easiest games are. I am concerned about adapting to the higher blind to buy in ratio though. It seems to me that a standard preflop raise and bet on the flop would allow you to be all in by the turn. i.e. I raise to 6 BB preflop ($3.00), then bet about $7.00 on the flop. That leaves me with $15 to play with it. The pot on the turn would be much greater than this. Should I be more willing to get all in with weaker hands like TPTK or overpairs than normal? Also, where do I look for a signal that one of those hands is beat? Having not tried any of these games yet it seems like it would be difficult to determine when you're beat or not. Is limping or min-raising and then playing the hand as if it were PS $25 a viable approach? I don't like that idea very much, but I'm open to any input from more experienced players than myself (excludes very few people [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] )
