Why does this just not mean you will have to play on Party instead of one of the skins? Please excuse my naivete... and my dear Aunt Sally.

Here is the simple problem that most of us are having: I get 30% at Eurobet - I get 0% at Party.

Along with the fact that any tables after the first four won't be as good.

I know Party was down for 4 or 5 hours, but currently they have 21,000+ players online while PokerStars has 43,000+. Does anyone know how many players PokerStars usually has on a Saturday night?

So what's the consensus? Is it not worth it to stick around on the skins just to collect on rakeback??

It's probably time to start taking a serious look at other sites.

Is there rakeback at other sites aside from Party skins?

God, just the thought at playing at other sites other than Party/Party Skins makes me nauseous. Anyone ever try playing at Bodog or Full Tilt? Were they serious with those interfaces? Is it that hard to create a smooth, aesthetically-pleasing interface? Anyway... this turned into a mini-rant.

Still haven't signed up for UltimateBet or Stars yet. Hope they got rakeback.

The consensus is that many of the players on the skins-sites are multi-tabling pro's who only play there FOR the rake-back.

So, basically, No...most people won't want to play on the skins because they think they'll just be playing at tables that have nothing but 2+2'ers.

Of course...if all the 2+2'ers decide to leave the skins...then the tables on the skins will no longer have those 2+2'ers. Blah blah blah.
The old contradiction "the players there are so good....that none of the good players want to play there anymore."



If the lack of rake-back leads to everyone dispersing to various sites (like Prima or crypto or other RB-type sites) then I think the games at Party could actually wind up being better in the long-run.

This isn't to encourage all you good players to stay at Party though!!
I'm probably wrong and the games on Party will SUCK SUCK SUCK!!
No fish here. No RB anywhere. You'll be better playing somewhere else!!!
Go Away Away Away!!!!!!!

having it right there at the click of a button is a lot different then having to download an online casino, put some dough on it, etc. When Paradise Poker added blackjack to the poker room a lot of fish were losing their rolls.

Basically every site except Pokerstars has some form of rakeback.

its impossible to find a party rakeback deal at this point. thats why all of us break-even players were making a good living multi-tabling the skins with fat rakeback deals.
