So who is still playing on PP one month later?
 
I feel that the games are much tougher, but still profitable. There are very few short stacks, and most of the players in this game were probably not more than small losers previously. Long term, I would expect a 25-35% decrease in winrate? What do you think? How are the games you are playing in?

I am running pretty bad at in the 20 game but the games are way, way worse than they used to be, mainly because you can't practice game selection.

I still play 25/50, mainly HU and 3 handed only if possible. Games look ok to me, not great but worth playing for sure

Agreed. 5/10 is waaaaaay worse and close to unplayable (not unplayable I cant make money, but why bother having a variance war with 5 other decent pros unplayable) a good % of the time. IDK you can still make money there, but theres def softer sites.

25-50 and 10-20 seems ok, 5-10 is alittle more tougher. $5 rake charge at 25-50 sucks. All in all, moving sites soon!

First I've heard of that. Sounds like they're desparately trying to make up for their loss in volume. As a business man I always wondered why Party made such a poor (IMO) business judgement. Some unseen pressure applied? When I see this in the US I always figure someone has figured a way to make big bucks. Oops, guess this turned into a rant.

yeh the first few replies were really confusing me.

the regulars in these games are terrible (obv there are a few, probs you guys, who are good) but generally speaking there is no 'variance war' going on at all.

also there are still a bunch of fish left over. i wouldnt say the games are better (5/10 and 10/20) but i wouldnt say theyre much worse either.

Is it worth it to set up an offshore acct and address and get a new party account?

Re: So who is still playing on PP one month later?
 
Probably not since if you play on other sites besides party/crypto for the most part, the good hours for playing a diff.

Yeah but game selection is dead....sooo definately looking at a winrate drop if you stay there.

I still play there.

Re: So who is still playing on PP one month later?
 
There should be no debate about this whatsoever. The games are worse, much worse. Sure they are still beatable but on average there are only 4 games of 10/20 going and 4-5 of the seats are filled with previous decent winners in the game.

Previously there were 20-30 tables and it wasn't too hard to find 7 or 8 of those that only had 2 or 3 pros.

Re: So who is still playing on PP one month later?
 
Previous decent winners who strictly played Party will probably still have massive leaks vs. good players. Haven't played there since the ban but I'd imagine the games will still be very profitable if you can adjust.

10/20 is tougher than it used to be and, but it sucks that there aren't a lot of those games going on.

I hadn't played much of 5/10 in last couple of months, so moving down there feels like it's really soft.

Noose and KKF, please leave 5/10 now.
