Default OT: Where have all the donks gone?

Evening all.

Just a quickie couple of questions. I have read that people are moving from Party to Stars because of issues with Party. I have noticed over the past several weeks that even the low level games are getting somewhat tougher. Are they going to be fixing Party? Are people (2+2er's, you, or others) to your knowledge going to be going back to Party? If so for either of the above, any idea when? Just trying to get a rough idea. I am trying to adjust my game, and trying to decide if this is going to be a change for the long haul, or just temporary.

Thanks for any input.

Fammy

I'm a Stars player. Exclusively.

I made a significant deposit on Party today.

That help?

They're still around. Some are tough to identify as they play tight early like a good player should. However, donks come in all forms and sizes and there are plenty that have good level 1-4 skills but suffer greatly in the later levels. I'm noticing a lot of weak tighties come bubble time and these guys are very easily exploitable, push the farm at them.

Party had a hiccup with the speeds but it appears they are back to normal. I'd be surprised if there many that stay at stars as party is pretty well an unprospected gold mine.

It's a weird time of year too, with many colleges starting up/about to start up, family vacations, etc. I expect/hope to see more fishies after Labor Day.

But, yeah, 9 or 10 people still on every table in Level 5 at the 55s is no fun. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I'd say the donks are still here. I haven't noticed much of a change.

Once the WSOP airs hopefully more fishies will flock to the party!
