Pacific Poker??

[drewjax]

thanks for the input. I have already played at both Pacific and Party (although just play money at Party). I dont really mind the bad software and somewhat slowness of Pacific, I just want to know if there has been some significant recent downturn at Pacific. the last week alot of posters on RGP have said Pacific has gone bad??
I have about $400 to play with. Would it make sense to try to play at both sites, simply deposit $200 into both. Or should I pick one and go at it full bore. I am not at the point where I feel too comfortable playing multiple tables, another reason Pacific suits me. What are your opinions??
thanks again, keep the advise coming!!

There actually is a correct answer to your question: None of the above.

What you should do is take the full $400 and deposit it at a NEW site, and get yourself a bonus. Take your pick, but I would recommend you try . I think you will like the site, and they are currently offering a 40% deposit bonus, which would be $160 for you. Gotta love that.

I think talking poker means the full $400 in his above post...

pacific sucks. i hate playing with a buncha fish because they make horrible calls and suck you out..plus the software always gives me problems.

Sure, suckouts are annoying, but you can't be serious in saying you don't like playing with bad players - They are the ones who pay you in the long run. If you only play with people who are better than you, you'll lose.

It's just math.

I think the deal with Pacific is that the software is just plain old and outdated...I mean look at how long its been around...

I tend to agree with TP, Pokerroom is a very nice site, nice interface, pretty good customer support.

Also, SnGs dont have the shitty 800 or 1000 starting chips, they start at 1500, which is a big plus.

well obviously i don't mind playing with crappier players (sometimes i say i hate it because i get so frustrated), but if i play with better players a lot my skills will increase..and that's really what i'm looking for.
