I think Party is EXTREMELY unrealistic.

I just don't think it is possible for SO many players to be SO bad. I think it must be a figment of my imagination.

agreed. I once fell off my chair while playing because I was in disbelief at how horrible the players were. Sometimes makes you wonder if there's a human brain at the other end of the screen.

Nope, it's a 9 month old bot.

Myself and a buddy started there at the same time and both left after doing their # of raked hands for our bonuses.

We both felt as you did.

My buddy lost a big chunk of the bonus, and I lost about 1/3 of it.
For the hours we had to play, we hated it, and bolted quickly.

Where I wound up, I prefer to keep a secret.

Shop around, you will eventually find one (or two or three...) that pleases you!

I am winning the pot 60% of the time with AA, however I have lost money with AA overall--To me this says learn how to play poker better and know when to throw down the monster starting hand because the board doesn't fit.

If you cant win money on party poker, you have yet to come to an anywhere-near successfull comprehension of the game.

I agree. I've gone through 5k stretches where KK and AA were losers, but they eventually come around. Seems lots of people don't realize how long the long term really is in poker. Even with a few of those terrible stretches, my AA still comes in at a 75% win over 53k hands.

I concur, Pacific is mind-bending. Ex. I have pocket aces, raise preflop, flop comes a22... Four people, count them...four, call me down the whole way, without either the other ace or a two.
