Default Party fiasco - Surely someone must have known?

Any of the big affiliates hear anything or understand what's going on? Needless to say this change has bigger implications for affiliate businesses than players.

Yep, waiting with baited breath to hear what the affiliates have to say...assuming they haven't soiled themselves silly.

Thats a very silly assumption. This will cost some affiliates $10k+/month

I assume you're talking about affiliates of Empire/Eurobet, etc. I fail to see how this change costs Party Poker affiliates money.

brahahaha you're kidding right. This is going to kill any Party skin affiliate-unless the skins can find a way to fight back or rejoin the Party Network.

Have you seen the pot averages on the Party Skin Network-all anemic. Total player on the network ~7,500.

This is going to put these skins out of business unless they can counter Party's move and they beter figure out something fast...in a prior threadin the ZOO I mused that EOL-Empire Poker listed on the London Stock Exchange would open down 20-30% Monday morning-after looking at this more in detail this stock will get hit much harder than that.

EuroBet is more diverse with its B&M betting parlors and online casino and sportsbook.

EuroBet may be able to weather this just like InterTops but Empire may not survive unless they can counter in a big way. What are their options.

Party has fvcked all these skins good.

Also Party stock may rally more than I thought eventhu this clarifies their bogus player counts and revenue/player growth estimates. If Party can pull this off and maintain solid player counts and build on it..this is a long term positive.

What Party has finally done is come out of the closet and clarified and cleaned up their accounting. How investors and analysts react to this will be very interesting. Party had to do this to protect its turf.

Party had to do this they had no choice.
