To the non-US players out there:

Could you please rank these sites/networks on fishiness?
a) Party
b) OnGame (PokerRoom)
c) iPoker (Noble Poker, CD Poker)
d) Everest Poker

Also, any other pet peeves or crap you don't like?

[/ QUOTE ]

Haven't played on any one but Party but I would definitely think Party is the toughest of those sites listed just from what I've heard, and Party 600+ is not easy by any means. I know of a few players who have access to Party that play mainly FTP/PS because they think the games are better.

12k downswing, no more 5/10

[CSKJ]

ongame - soft, but the software sucks.

iPoker - soooft and the software is actually good and fast

Everest - Not played there yet because of the software, but should also be pretty soft.

Party - Well, party is party [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] though many regs.
