Default Pokerroom MTT\'s

Is it just my imagination, or are the Pokerroom a lot softer than most other sites? People just don't know what kind of raises to make. I a sitting with people betting exactly t100 on every street (in the early stages of an MTT).

I agree. I have made a good number of final tables, winning once, second once, and a bunch of 4ths and 5ths. 25% is not unreasonable. As I do not seem to do as well anywhere else, it must be Pokerroom. My son has won and final tabled in back to back $5 MTTs, and he isn't in high school yet.

I agree that they're soft, but as one of the other posters noted, they are just full of calling stations. This is wonderful in some circumstances, but the result is a kind of implicit collusion. If six players call your raise with AA, someone is going to draw out on you. (It also makes it very tough to steal, so the style of play that works elsewhere can be very expensive here.)
