I originally made a post a few months back defending partypoker. After taking a little more time to investigate, I must admit I was wrong. Now dont get me wrong, My beef isn't with game play. Getting your brains beat in at the river more times than not has mainly to do with the schools of fish who learn bad playing habits while playing for play money. Where my beef stands is with the cards that are dealt and nothing to do with gameplay. Try this sometime: Take a deck of cards and deal Texas Hold Em like there were 10 people playing. How many times do three players have pocket pairs in the same hand? Very rarely. This is a constant happening with PP. Now heres the kicker. On the day I decided to leave, I played a $20 sit-n-go and saw trips on the flop ON THREE STRAIGHT HANDS! For anyone interested, the odds on this is 424*424*424 (424/1 on trips happening one time) Exactly 76,225,024 to 1! And its not the first time I've seen it! My advice to you is to come to the Gaming Club. THeres only a tenth of the traffic as PP but that means less collusion, very few cheaters, and many tables you will see the same faces making it easier to pick up their playing styles. You can still get a respectable ring game at nearly any limit you choose (as high as $200/$400) They also have multi-table sit-n-go's. And with 6 FREEROLLS every day, you'll be playing a lot of free poker for real cash. A solid player will clean up over here.
