Many of the regular 'name' players in those games are all in vegas playing live. It'll be better in a month.

yeah, but the regular name players aren't the fish for the most part.... the games have been going w/ just 1 fish a lot lately, more so then just a few months ago when I started playing the higher stakes games

I see both games are going right now with waitlists (7 AM Saturday). I guess schedules have just changed. Friday night used to be a really good partypoker night.

FWIW, in every player pool I've ever been in, NL, limit, high stakes, low stakes, body count went down in the summer.

i dont think one needs tommy's experience to make some good guesses:

1) summer vacation

2) WSOP

3) more time w/ kids/family/hobbies

4) outdoors on beautiful days...swimming, sunbathing --> early nights w/o poker for next day

im sure i missed some but the confluence of factors above probably catches a good amount of the reason.
