Default Where have all the mid-limit limit hold\'em games gone?

There were a lot of 10/20 and 20/40 games on Paradise, and a ton of 10/20, 20/40 and 30/60 games on Party. Where are all these players playing now?

Stars, Tilt and Doyle's picked up a bit, and Tilt even more when Doyle's closed. But that's only a small fraction of the players who were playing. I find it hard to believe most these players just stopped playing. Stars is still mostly tournaments and Tilt is still mostly no-limit.

Anyone know where I can find a site with a lot of these limit games, especially the 20/40 and 30/60?

Thanks.

The number of players is drastically down at all limits. A lot of U.S. players simply quit.

People have started to realize that betting $40 into a $400 pot is ridiculous and wrong under any circumstances.

Last night on fulltilt (8 to 11 PM) EVERY SINGLE no-limit table 2/4 or less was full and almost all the higher ones. Same with Omaha h/l and HORSE. I havent played limit hold-em in a while, so I cant say about that. But the idea that "all the players have gone" is BS.

I would say the numbers are slightly down. However, I think there has been an overall shift from limit to no-limit over the past three years since no-limit is all we ever see on television.

I think we are seeing a huge deline in usa players, I personally have nearly quit online playing, its such a huge hassle and it seems like no cashouts are a sure thing at this point...

If you check your local B & M, youll find volume up 150%...

The UIGEA has put a monster dent in all of our incomes, i still just cant believe how ridiculous the us government is being.
