Yes! I finally got to use besmirch in a sentence! WOOHOO!!! Check another task off my lifelong to do list. | | Static Link |

Only Limit games are taken into account and the ratings are updated monthly. | | Static Link |
| Posted by: RobDoral at September 23, 2005, 8:46 am | | Topic: Which sites offer the softest 5/10 LHE games? Forum: Bonus Whores | | Thanks for the tips, they've helped me come up with a game plan. I think those were all good points about Party (BBJ and regular play)and the nature of smaller sites. I wish party had % seeing the flop data but I'm going to watch a few sites for a while to see what works best for me. I normally dislike Pacific since I can only play one table at a time but it's probably best for me to just one table anyway until I can expand my bankroll and grow comfortable at a new limit. | | Static Link |

When the jackpot is big enough, the BBJ tables at Party really are a gold mine, really at any level. At $5/$10 and above, the extra rake is less noticeable as well, and worth it for the extra action you get.
I only play tourneys at Bodog, so I don't know how good they are. | | Static Link |

Forum: Bonus Whores | I'm sure to be in the minority on this one, but I find the $5/$10 games at Party to be nowhere near as soft as quite a few other sites that I've played on. There are bad players, don't get me wrong, but with so many tables there, the bad players get spread out pretty thin. I rarely even get onto a Party $5/$10 table unless I've watched it for about 20 minutes, to make sure there are actually bad players on it.
I find the sites with less games running are more likely to have bad players on them. I don't have an account at Pacific, so I can't tell you my experience, but I've heard plenty of times that there are some horrendously bad players there.
You might want to try some of the smaller sites to see which ones have games that fit you best. | | Static Link |

Forum: Bonus Whores | I was just wondering what your opinions were about which sites offered the softest 5/10 Limit Holdem games? My two guesses would be Party Poker (and skins) and Pacific but I read conflicting opinions about the softness (in general) of these two sites when I searched past threads.
And by softness I mean how easy they are to beat without considering bonuses since I can see the bonus clearing rates on the chart. I've reviewed the "game quality" ratings on the review pages but it's hard for me to tell if they are combining NL and limit data and more importantly if they are still up to date. | | Static Link |
