On another forum, somebody turned me onto the fish bowl that's over at the $10NL tables at Paradise. While the money is far from huge (.05/.10 blinds and $10max buy-in) it's a substantially easier game to beat than even $25NL at Party Poker. And if your bankroll doesn't meet the guidelines of 5x buy-in at Party, a $50 initial deposit +25% bonus will get you started comfortably.

And the players there are possibly some of the weakest and loosest I have ever seen. Lots of overcards with little unsuited rags get turned over for top pair or miracle straight draws, but you can usually get a couple callers when you have the nuts.

Just wanted to give some of you guys that might get a little scared to gamble on the $25NL tables at Party a heads up about Paradise.

gutshot - That's interesting that you are finding the players weak over at Paradise Poker. I started out there and I played both the .50/1.00 limit and $50 NL tables. I found the play to be MUCH better there than any of the other sites that I have since played (UB, Party/Empire). It could be that the fish are out at the $10 NL tables because that might be where the people just learning feel most comfortable playing. In any event, interesting info.

That's what I'm thinkin. They also have $2NL tables with a .02/.04 blind. If I can build my roll up enough then I may check out the $25NL tables later. Supposedly the $10 tables are relatively new compared to the $25 and $50 tables.
