Party vs. the skins--who plays where?

[Inthacup]

In terms of percentages, how many people do you think play at Party vs. the skins? I've been thinking about this lately. There are normally between 5000-7000 players playing at an IGM site. How many of those players do you think are actually playing at Party? Empire? Intertops? Multi? Eurobet? I'll post my guess in a little while.

Since there are many that have played at several/all of the Party skins, I should specify: the question is where do these players primarily play?

I think around 80% play Party, another 10% Empire, and the other 3 skins chop up the remaining 10%. I base this on the fact that rarely does anyone at my table know of Empire, and to hear talk of one of the other 3 skins is very rare.

Hi Cup:
My guess is this but I could be wrong.I play at all these rooms except for Multi.
One good way to judge participation from individual skins is look at the numbers for Multi-Table Tournaments particularly big monthly freerolls and qualifying freerolls(must pplay raked hands).

For example Empire's $10k freerolllast week had like 280 for 1000 raked hands,Party had 1500 and a bunch were left out in the cold.Intetops and Eurobet both have very small fields for their MTT's.

Multi is the only site that doesnt have its own MTT's.All other sites have their own MTT's:Party,Empire,Intertops and Eurobet.

By a very rough estimate I would say :

Party-77%
Empire-15%
Intertops-5%
Multi-Poker-2%
Eurobet-1%

I could be way off..just a guestimate.Many players can sign-up initially off one skin but never return again..or they might be bonus whores and bounce around wherever value is whether its bonuses or freerolls or whatever.

i play mostly on empire for some reason

maybe because everyone knows my party name [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

although my empire name isn't really cryptic

I have probably split equal time on Party and Empire. I switch every few weeks so the fish in my "buddy" list don't catch on as quickly. I do prefer Empire though. The colors are easier on my eyes.

i played at party first, but now play at empire almost exclusively. this is due to the fact that i got a rake rebate offer for empire. i might as well squeeze whatever i can out of playing.

Long time listener, first time caller...

I will play at Party if I have a comeback bonus to clear. Otherwise, it's 100% Empire...the colors are better, and at least my affiliate (Inthacup) is getting something for my play. I regrettably signed up with Party prior to learning about 2+2...

Do Multi, Intertops, or Eurobet also offer comeback bonuses? If one was diligent enough, could one literally have a near constant stream of comeback bonuses at Party skins?

Thanks, sorry for any newbie rambling

I play 99% Party. Only other account I have at IGM is Empire. I only opened Empire for bonus and cashed after I cleared it. Then I got a reload bonus there this weekend and cleared it and cashed it out again.

I play Party because I like to play one of their $30 limit hold'em tourneys on Saturdays. Although I'm not a big tourney fan. But their tourney schedule seems better than Empire.

I see no reason to have cash in both so I just stick with Party. If one crashes they both crash [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

ask who is wearing what clothes or compliment someone on their outfits based on Party avatars, or Empire avatars, and see who blinks.

When someone compliments me on a red dress or a green one, and I am not wearing that color, I know they aren't on Empire. And I play on empire because they pay better affiliate money and have been more responsive to problems.

Definately intertops the delay to exchange the money from the poker account to sportsbook to neteller is like trying to ge through checkpoint charlie during the height of the cold war. Also I love the stupid eurotrash looking players it's like they got Fabio and friends to pose for the players........
