The main reason is because most of the booted party players don't read this forum and don't take poker all that seriously.

The bulk of players booted off were casual players who throw a few hundred $ on Party Poker, donk it off in various games or BJ and then maybe a few weeks/months later throw on another couple $ and do the same thing.

My great fear is that many of these players will just "give up" on poker online.

The rest it will take them awhile to find a new site.

Where is the option for I already am playing somewhere else?

I'm pretty sure that would be winning if you didn't suck at polls.

i'm passively seeking out rakeback at other sites and waiting to see what new trends will develop for player enrollment


right now seriously scoping out full tilt, bodog and of course stars.

Same as Willy. Also, no NetTeller in Maryland. Weighing options.

FWIW the 20/30 SNGs still seem as soft as ever (from a limited sample admittedly).

theres about 50000 players on pokerstars right now...a little much isnt it? you guys may think this is weak, but i play the the .05/.10 games, im normally at pacificpoker playin the 70-80% player/ flop games. seems like now pokerstars has a bunch of these. i thought 50000 players was partypoker status right?

I stopped playing at party like 2 weeks before they officially kicked us off...mostly to just get used to the software, etc. But I actually like other sites better than party. I'm gald this whole party fiasco made me look at other sites besides just party/stars.

Party used to get huge numbers without having all those nanolimits, so the numbers are a bit scewed when you have 1000s of 'real money' players who are playing for 12 cent pots.
