Default Ex-Party 5/10 Games

I'm pretty new at limit (and 6-max for that matter), but I've played about 12,000 hands in the past 5 days at 1/2 and 3/6... and as of last night 5/10. I'm significantly underrolled for 5/10, but the games seem to much softer... I find the 3/6 and 1/2 games have avg VPIPs of 20-25 while I can easily find 2 40-50 games at 5/10 at any given time.

Could somebody with a bigger sample take a look at this for me? Is Party much more reasonable (lower limits = worse players)?

I know I'm going to get reamed for this question because of my 'sample' size, but I'm just hoping somebody else has a bigger one and some sort of answer.

Bigger games are generally tighter, but there are examples every day to make one think otherwise.

What site did you find this vpip? Party or ex-Party skins?

its mostly all from before teh split, but i think the general concept of lower vpip as you move up in limits is applies to all sites

Yeah, I realize that's the general truth... I'm just curious if ex-Party (Euro, Empire) is tighter (1/2 to 5/10) than the previous Party sites combined(including all sites like Party, Empire, Euro).
