Default I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP

Finally got on Party on a recent trip to Toronto.

Party Poker, $1/$2 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 6 Players
LegoPoker Hand History Converter

BTN: $308.25
SB: $208.70
BB: $211.50
Hero (UTG): $200
MP: $322.30
CO: $225.10

Pre-Flop: 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (UTG)
<font color="red">Hero raises to $7</font>, <font color="red">MP raises to $21</font>, 4 folds, Hero calls $14

Flop: ($45) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, <font color="red">MP bets $35</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $75</font>, MP calls $40

Turn: ($195) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, MP checks

River: ($195) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $104 and is All-In</font>, MP times down and calls $104

Results: $403 Pot ($3 Rake)
Hero showed 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (three of a kind, Threes) and WON $400 (+$200 NET)
MP showed T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (high card King) and LOST (-$200 NET)

BEAT: put Villain on AA/KK preflop and was wrong
BRAG: got the money anyway
VARIANCE: rumor is true lol

People saying shove the turn are idiots.

Yes shoving turn is standard but lol if you think a turn check sucks.

check turn is good, because we can make a full house.

full house &gt; sets

push river is good too, because we have to protect our hand.

Obviously. It's a reraised pot, putting him on diamonds is stupid. People usually shove diamonds on the flop too, his hand looks like JJ or AQ or something. River is super standard.
