...and they're as fishy as the Party $25 used to be and the money is deeper!

6 max limit, but not no limit (yet?) However, it's not too hard to find a short handed table. Lots of turn-over as the fish bust out pretty fast. At the $50 tables there is usually one guy with a clue with a $200 stack cleaning them out.
Overall, I'm finding that Pacific games play like the Party game of one level or so higher. 3/6 plays like 2/4, 2/4 almost plays like .5/1, etc.

Haha, I seem to find the right tables...3/6 plays like .5/1 on Party and 2/4 is a crap shoot. AA is usually an expensive loser where as (insert random suited hand) will probably win you $100 pot at 3/6. I'm willing to jump to 5/10 (as i've already won a runner runner flush there, that was before i realized it was a 5/10 table and I almost $hit my pants when I raised for $10...).
Have you played the higher limit tables yet fnord and how do they play?

Does anyone here still play at Pacific? If yes do you know if
a) they offer 6-max NL tables?
b) if there are still as many fish as the original review said?

You can multitable pacific. The feature was announced the very day I left them. Don't know about cash game quality, I was pretty much an SnG donk (and by donk I mean I really sucked) back then.

Yeah, their software sucks, cashouts are slow, and their support sucks. The bonuses are dependent on your personal contribution, so they clear decently at 100NL+, but not really worth it below that for just bonus whores.

Reports have been seen regarding people depositing for the bonus and cashing it out without actually clearing it. Your risk, your ruin  .

I have been there for two days now and they absolutely suck. The connections are horrendous and the software is clunky. Multi tables cause more grief than you can imagine. I'm constantly having to repost blinds and hands autofolding from disconnects. The Bet and fold buttons flicker on and off. I haven't even tried 3 tables yet after the first time but if anyone has any ideas i'm all ears. The players are every bit as week as Party though, if not worse at $25NL but if you can't stay in the hands it's useless. Support got back to me pretty quick when I complained and gave me a link to another download that was a little better but in the support response it was separated with advertising about casino and other offers. Should support be advertising to someone with a beef about your site? I can't stand it but I will ride the bonus and the weak players but it'll have to get better before I return, including supporting PT better than having to use Handgrabber wich causes even slower responses.

Poker Office works with Pacific without extra add ons and you can even datamine. The downside (for me, anyway) is that when I try to play more than one table I get disconnected at all of them. I can't tell if that's because of Pacific's shitty software or network or if it's my computer that can't handle the resource load.
Needless to say I don't play Pacific. Better games with less aggravation are out there.

I just cashed out.. took about 5 calendar days. I got a 40% bonus but was chided for trying to cashout early and had to stick around for a couple thousand more hands. It's nice to be off that site after playing elsewhere for the past couple days.
