Not meaning to be argumenative, but I have NOT found this to be the case. Prior to the "split" ...

What are you referring to when you say "split"?

Thanks in advance

I'd say do a search, but instead, just click on any post with the phrase "party poker" in it, in either the internet, internet bonus, rakeback, or general forums, and you will have your answer.

The Skins are actually easier to win pots on then Party. However, the pot size is a lot smaller then Party.

The Rocks are very easy to push off hands. Just gotta increase the bluffing. Which use to be noneexistant w/Party.

i cleared the PS bonus, and am halfway through clearing empires. but the hourly rate there has dropped trememdously. Empire is tight, but it is much easier to put people on hands now. So I'm much more comfortable folding hands like QQ when I need to, or raising 6 3 off, when I think it will win me a pot. Something you couldn't do when there were so many fish playing anything. But as soon as I'm done with this, I'm heading to PP. even with all the bonus whoring I could be doing right now, PP is still gonna get me a better hourly rate.

I guess you have seen this line at the bottom of the PLAYOCT popup when you first sign on

"look for a upcoming $700 match bonus..."

that should be a blast.

oh god i cant wait...i 4 tables for 8 hours and made $92 AFTER adding the bonus...[censored] variance

56 hours in that rock garden would make me cry. one of my tables had a vpip of 12 today after i had been there for 2 hours. 12!!!!!!

I played 4 tables of 25NL last night and 3 of them had VPIPs of 12-13 after 2 hrs of play. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I cleared it in just over 2500 hands at .50/1 6-max. I didn't have any trouble finding tables at any time. My winrate was significantly lower than usual at that level, but the 4 BB/100 overlay from the bonus made it clearly better than playing those hands at Party.

Of course, without a bonus to play for I wouldn't go near the place. At the level I play, RB alone can't even come close to making up for the drop in game quality compared to Party.

And be boring besides. I can't find a .50/1.00 game that isn't as tight as a tick and agressive besides.

I normally clear bonuses at that level and need to play a little less than double the raked hands required to clear. Now it looks like I'm going to need nearly 3 times requirement as many hands are being folded to a raise before the flop resulting in no rake.

I may just abandon the effort. I must swim where there is liquid...

clear it at 1/2 6max, its loose as a goose

Just finished 1.5 hours 4 tabling 25NL and couldn't even tell that Party had split off. 377 hands dealt with 249 hands raked. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
