Default Have many of you switched to stars?

Ive seen several posts about the turbo's at stars being more difficult in the past few days.

Im curious as to what your thoughts are. Is it becuase of whats going on with party? Have many of you been playing a few stars SnG's now?

I believe I played suitedsixes, he wasnt a problem [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img], but Iam on a downswing.

Well, yeah, but Ive seen several posts about it getting tougher in the past few days. All of the sudden everyone just got better?

Im just wondering becuase I might have to move to party quicker than i thought.

I was there for a short stint, but now I am back at Party.

I certainly did nothing to make them harder, going 0 for 6 when all-in with AA/KK. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The $16 Turbos aren't getting like, harder, but I've noticed that people are not as busting as quick anymore. Like 25 minutes into it, we're still 8-9 handed at like t100/t200/a25, it's getting crappy.

Ya thats what Ive noticed also. Im swinging mainly becuase Im constantly running into AA and bigger hands, but that doesnt help either.

All of the sudden everyones a friggin' rock at the tables.

I played a $27 turbo last night that was over by 100/200 (no antes). One guy tripled up early, then played just about every hand, getting run over by the deck in the process. He simply busted everyone until he was heads up against me with an 12k/1.5k advantage.

First hand of HU, he limps, I push with A4s he calls with JJ, which holds up. Goooooood times [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

i noticed the 55+5 and the 105+9 much softer since party broke up, to bad its to small of a sample size to confirm anything.
