You need to have a bankroll option for pretty much just keeping on, which is what I've been doing. My winning hasn't increased, but I haven't had to drop down levels (although that's what I've selected since due to loss of bonus whoring I'm profiting less).

Edit: From talking to numerous poker playing buddies, nearly everyone is down since this for the most part (mostly low stakes guys supplementing income/playing for enjoyment).

The game really didn't get super bad until after Neteller had been gone for a while. Obviously nothing compares to like pre-UIGEA Party Poker in terms of fish, but the games were still very good until after Neteller's effects were seen imo.

My winnings have been more since October, but my winrate has been alot lower. I've moved up in stakes and played more hands, so overall profit is up, but due to moving up and games getting worse, winrate is down a decent amount, especially since Neteller.

Initially after Neteller left my withdrawals decreased because I was simply unable to. Now that I can get checks, I've been withdrawing more often, but that's because of the amount limit and surplus money in my accounts from the period when I couldn't easily cashout.

I play mid limit NL, the games are pretty rough now on FTP at least imo. Still beatable, but the winrates of most winning players are not great anymore (including me).

Just as donkish @ nl 30 and under for me.
Winning as more than ever (mainly b/c I play depp stak tables on FT)

I never depo /withdraw anyway, so IDK really. Got my $ out of neteller about 3 days befor it went busto though. Whew.

Lastly, Id say worst of it is the bad rap for poker. Not withdrwals, but poker being cast something awful that deserves to be banned.

for those of you who miss party and wish you could play their again, it's not the fishfest it used to be. Playing 1/2 NL is still beatable but not nearly as fishy as it used to be. I live in Vancouver and after getting home, eating and jumping online to play I consistely am seeing the same players night in and night out and their all very decent players. It's still beatable, but nothing like it used to be. I wouldn't mind playing around the European night time but I don't usually get the chance to often.
