Q:

do you really think that the games are still the same? maybe its just me, but i moved from party to stars after party banned US, and stars was noticeably tougher (i had played there regularily before, just wasnt main site)

i cannot imagine that since depositing became harder, that there are nearly as many fish out there depositing.

obv one example of a random donk doesnt really have anything to do w/ overall state of the game

honestly on stars there is still plenty of bad play to go around. cash games in general are tougher, but its only a step up on the scale. its not like they are exponentially tougher

also prob depends on the limit. im sure the higher stakes have toughened more in NL. from my experience there are still regulars in the mid-stakes LHE games that are awful
