Hope no one minds, but the last thread was too long.
Easy hand for me to play in SB (although I normally wouldn't even bother with this starting hand, I was aching for a confrontation with the BB who had been a donkey on another table)

Total Pot($425.90) | Rake ($3)
Board [3c Kd 6h 5c Js]
Seat 2: EAGLE925 Folded on the TURN
Seat 4: BORIK232 Folded on the POCKET CARDS

They've added multitabling, and there have been more sharks in the last few months. The fish pool has declined slightly as well. It isn't nearly as juicy as it used to be, but its still probably the juiciest site around.

Pokerstars and Neteller recently stating their intention to stick this thing out. Probably won't be any news until the regulations get written over the next 9 months.

I still have A LOT of cash in there...I have not had a chance to call yet but everything I have read from other boards and other people is they are paying...and I should get my money.
It just sucks...the last 4 months or so I have been playing much higher limits and making much $$$$...sick money actually...hopefully my success will translate to another site.

I joined Absolute because of all of this hubbub. The graphics and features are terrible, but the players are worse than where I came from (Noble Poker), so all-in-all I'm happy.

Wow, you're way out of line. I was imitating the end of all their commercials. Party is a very poorly run site, terrible support, mediocre software, cut and run onn their customers. I can express my opinion, and I can choose to show a little levity. If you can't accept that without attacking someone else, you are the one that needs to grow up.

I'm ELONWINS...you'll find me exclusively on the limit side, between 1/2 and 3/6. Perhaps I'll venture over to no limit land and watch you kick ass. Btw, if you don't have rakeback with Absolute, they just started allowing affiliates to offer rakeback to current account holders.

it's official. can't play at party poker now.
I had less than $50 in my account there ($39?). all the cashout options say $50 minimum. surely there is some way I can get my money from em. granted it's not a lot of money, but still, they shouldn't be able to keep it.

I downloaded AP to check it out, and was quite dissapointed to see no action on the 10-handed tables. Even the 6-handed had barely anything over .50/1$. Is that what you play skank?

I guess it didn't stop Enron and Worldcom, but since Party is actually publicly traded and pretty high profile, I imagine it would not be in their best interest to steal anything <$50 from users they voluntarily kicked out. Just email support and I'm sure they'll tell you how to cash out - I think I heard Neteller will transfer amounts greater than .10c, so the $50 requirement is purely a convenience thing for Party.

I would never donate anything to poker alliance. in the end, big government will put the squeeze on corps like party poker for a big slice of the pie, then we will have on-line poker again. let those corps pay their own lawyers/lobbyists.

it seems like sites like bodog poker are still running because it is a sports betting site as well as poker. I have been playing on there with no issues throughout the day. If anyone is interested in going to bodog let me know and I will refer you and we can split the sign in bonus.

The sports betting is unrelated to sticking around as a poker site. And now transferring funds for sports betting is also illegal anyway. Bodog just chose to stick it out like Stars/FT (now #1 and #2 in size for US players).

Full Tilt is looking like the potential big winner so far. I've noticed a serious decline in #'s at the higher NL tables at Pacific, to the point that I'm likely to bail if things dont pick up soon. I'll be looking for a new home, and Full Tilt has a nice 100% up to 600$ signup bonus going.
Anyone play there right now?

R9, it's my new home. The bonus takes forever to clear since it is essentially equal to their rakeback (27%) payout. But, that rakeback is the reason I tend to play them over stars. You need to play high limits very often to make the Stars points system equivalent.
They've got a $100 for member, $25 for new guy referal thing that I'd split 50/50 wih you if you want.

I could not agree more.
After Party has made billions off of our rake they now want us to donate to protect thier profits?
What a joke.
Very PO'ed with Party for bailing so quickly and not even putting up at least a whimper of a fight.
When and if they do get an exemption from the Govt....it is very doubtful i will be back.
Signed up for FT and seems to be a decent site.

I love FT. Now that Party is gone I've been playing there full time. Been playing there for only 3 days and I'm already in the top 20 of their high SNG leaderboard. The ironman and Aussie freerolls(I'll be in Australia during the Aussie Millions) look pretty cool too. Not to mention the 27% rb that's deposited directly into your account.

That just happens Deadeye.
Last night I was playing poker with my friends for 20$ each in a SNG format. I had 67s and called a preflop raise, flop comes 267, the 2 is of my suit. He has KK (neither of my suit) and bets the pot, I call. Turn is a 3, my suit also, and he moves all-in. Easy call. He hits his one-outer on the river to steal the pot and knock me out. What can ya do? Thats poker.

He's got 7 outs there, but I presume you mean he hit his non-your-suited K? Another 2 or 3 gets you too, and getting counterfeited by a clueless aggro is so much more irritating than the 'f--- the odds' call all in with flush draw guys.

I've got a general proposition for the new FTP players:
Those of you using pocketracker, any interest in sharing databases going forward? This might be pointless if we all play different limits, and lighter players would certainly be benefiting more than heavy players, but I just thought I'd throw the idea out there.

I'm an idiot with a question.
Back in my poker playing days I used PokerStars. After I stopped playing I let my roommate use my account, with his own money.
I have since moved and without thinking that he still had money in there...I deleted Pokerstars off my computer. Can I just download, reinstall the program and pull his money out easily? Or with all this shutdown of gambling sites is this gonna be difficult????

The account is still there, deleting did nothing to your account. You can re-install the software, and log in like usual and you'll find all the money he left is still there.

#170, indeed, I forgot to include CF outs. He did indeed hit his K though.
J, you know he went broke. Stop getting your hopes up. :p
KM, I'm game for FT database sharing. Don't know what limits you play, but once I get my cashout from Pacific I plan on .05/1$ NL, 1/2 NL and maybe some 2/4 NL.

I've been playing some limit and PLO to get my BR up (spent most of it recently). Limit is less profitable than NL for my time, but it tends to provide more consistency when a few bad beats in NL could break me. Omaha, as someone mentioned before, is full of people who just simply can't play that game. People with 2nd or 3rd nut hands go absolutely crazy, when the odds someone really does have the nuts are MUCH higher in Omaha. So far it's been much more profitable than NL. I plan to switch to NL in a week or so, and I'd be playing the same limits as you R9, so I'm definitely up for a database swap.
