Party is brilliant

Petomane · #1 10-08-2005, 11:38 PM

As one who makes a living at online poker, I'm glad the rakeback is gone and all the players who depended on it also gone. Good riddance. Goodbye. Adios. We won't miss you and your little racket.

The sidebet and BJ, as annoying as they are, will draw more fish. In case anyone hasn't noticed there's been an influx of bad players on Party in the past few weeks and now there might be a flood of them.

Can't wait for the roulette and craps icons.

Yeah, give me more buttons to lure the fish away from poker and encourage them to give their money directly to Party without me getting any of it.

To those saying he is wrong, you don't know what you are talking about. If party starts actively seeking out the gamblers the tables will be looser than ever. Just look at all the poker rooms that were added to pure gambling or sports betting sites and compare the fishiness. Pacific is my favorite place to play because of this even with their 1 table at a time an horrible software.

Pacific is thought to have the fishiest games for similar reasons. My initial reaction is that this is will hurt the poker games. All the recreational gamblers that are not all that good will blow thier money at BJ instead of giving it to me. If this Party casino thing works well though, I can see how it could lead to more poor players though. So there is an argument to be made for this point. For the time being though, I'm thinking this will just allow poor players to loose thier money faster playing these side bets. In the long run, if the casino aspect attracts more "-EV and don't care" gambler types, you are probably right.
