Can I get some current #s on party vs skins??

As long as most of the fish are at party, or find their way there then I like what has happened.

Looks like Party might succesfully be forming a Monopoly. Theyre the Microsoft of Online Poker now. They should have at least kept the rake down a little. They really trying to bring in the money I guess. Greedy Bastards. I was just about to head over to Empire with rakeback but I guess Ill jsut stay at Stars for now and see what happens.

Thx. It'll be interesting to see how high the numbers rise when alot rakebackers move back to party.

Something I've always wondered is if they treated each account as another person online, so if they had 5000 people on with 2 accounts they treat that as 10000...

"Theyre the Microsoft of Online Poker now"

Not really, looks like stars might be king now.

oh please please let this be a technical issue. and that after it's fixed the party player pool will be whole again.

and if it is a techical glitch, then that means once it's fixed, we can 10 table the skins as well!

This is f-ing awesome. My return, even including the rakeback loss just went way up. Quit twiddling your thumbs and start fishing, dorks.

I'm serious. Quit worrying about rakeback. If you're a breakeven player, then you've got plenty to learn. End of story. How often do we talk about ROI in terms of including rb? Never. I still and always considered it a bonus. It sucks to lose, but oh well. In the meantime, we should be bitching about them lowering their rake.

I'm afraid it's over. At least if I read it correctly.

Following today’s move, PartyPoker players will now play on their own private tables and benefit from a number of new and exciting products that are exclusive to the new platform.

Take of it what you will.. But this means that Empire et al will be getting the side-bets plus blackjack as well. Gag for me.
