Default Opinion on the new Party Poker


Party poker has obviously upgraded. The most notable change is that you can now play more than 4 tables (i experimented and had 10 up at one point). The next is that they randomly dump a screen asking you to verify a word; i'm assuming this is to stop pokerbots.

My question is what do you guys think of these changes?

My personal opinion is that this is very bad for the above average player trying to make a part time job of it. More people could log on to 6-8 tables, play 10-15% and wait on nuts. Average pots go down, you will have to wait longer for people to take thier turn. In general profitability will go way down.

Also, there is the risk that people can now simply data mine partypoker with pokertracker. True before you could get on with 4 games at a time, but now you could click on 10, wait a half hour (or have it on all day) and have a huge database on every player. Again, just bad news.
