Default Anyone here play Pacific?

All these posts every where: "I ran into so and so in a SnG.." or "I was there when such and such happened..".

I dont think I've ever ran into a single 2+2'er anywhere.. At least not any names I recognize... I'm just wondering why I've never run across anyone online.. I know a lot of regulars on the sites, and I know a lot of the regulars here.. But the 2 worlds never cross as far as I can tell..

You'll find me in .5/1 limit ring games or in the 10/1 SnG's.

The software is slow, featureless and single-table. Pacific has great games, but I need more from the client.

Player notes, PokerTracker importing, multi-tabling, 0 for 3. I need 3 out of 3 to even consider playing routinely on a site.

Right now if Pacific introduced player notes, that'd be enough to get me across.

I started out at Pacific poker 0.05-0.10 then 0.10-0.20 and have moved elsewhere to play 0.25/0.50.

Then again, you're not likely to noitce me bacause I'm not exactly a 2+2 regular yet.

My original plan was to go back to Pacific to play 0.50/1.00 next time I move up a limit, but after testing out other software I'm aware of exactly how bad Pacific's is and despite the very good games will likely play my 0.50/1.00 elsewhere.

I played micros (.05/.10) there when i was starting out online. The games are truly soft at higher levels and the 5-seat and 10-seat SNGs are laughably easy.

However, since buying pokertracker, i feel that i want to keep info on ALL my hands, which pacific doesn't provide.

The day they let me play 2 tables at once and download hand histories is the day i dump $300 in an account and frequent the site. Till then it'll be a snowy day in hell before i give them rake.

Regards,

(user PHarris when i ever look into pacific!)

Software buggy: Sometimes hides cards in the 8 seat. I've complained twice. They tell me to run the mouse over the cards, but that doesn't work for me.

Bonus' and promotions slow and complex: I've never bothered to figure them out.

Single table play: Good for a learner like me to think through a hand anyway.

Hand history: Good enough to review after play, but culd be much better.

Typical players: Priceless!!! I play at Pacific whenever I'm not bonus chasing at other sites. Although I suspect I'm making more at Pacific even with the other sites bonus'.

I have thought this about Pacific too...The traffic from the casino must be what is keeping it so soft that I can't believe it most of the time.

The Pacific software lags highly for me though (I don't just mean that it is slow, if there is another poker room open it actually slows my machine to a crawl, the mouse cursor jerks around instead of gliding, etc.). Perhaps this is just me?

I'd be in Seventh Heaven if I could play one table of Pacific and a table or two elsewhere. Guess I'll have to upgrade my graphics card...
