Why Party?

[GreggyB]

So following the general opinion of the board I put some money into party and started playing SnGs over there. I still can't understand why it seems to be the favored site.

I started on UB and find their SnG structure to be much less frustrating than Party. Perhaps because the blinds excalate on a time basis instead of a number of hands basis that the players have a better chance to "work things out on their own" without it coming down to the crap shoot on the end. On party it seems that once you're in the money, you're not really seeing flops anyway because a single round of blinds will eat up 20% of your stack... When was the last time you really had a good mano-a-mano HU shootout at Party in a SNG?

I do however like pokertracker... alot... and its a shame that UB won't set up their system to facilitate its use.

Do you feel that the competition at Party is significantly worse than UB at the 10 + 1 level and this is what makes it worth moving over?
