FTP/Stars Any Fishier Yet?

Has anybody noticed Stars or Full Tilt becoming any fishier yet? Just logged on to Stars and saw they got about 80k players online which I think is close to Party's old numbers no? I'm curious to see if these 2 sites become infested or not.

The games are very beatable.

I've been beating stars for about a year and a half and I have noticed a bit of a change. I may have to slightly change up my strategy.

I used to be a partypoker player, but those days are over, and I already miss em.

I guess now I have to switch sites. I do not like full tilt, so now I guess I am left with stars or bodog. on tuesday I may sign up and check out stars. hopefully buy then all the party fish have moved over.

I don't know if they are any more beatable than they were, signed up on Thursday, but through 2500 hands they seem much easier than my previous site. My big hands are getting paid and I am stealing lots of pots preflop. There seems to be less TAGs and less Maniacs at these tables than at Party. Lots of tight/loose passives. I have played $50 - $200 nl.

Would really like an update on FT...

I miss party big time. We also lost Crypto and Pacific which were a mint for me.

Signed up for FTP this weekend--pretty tight-passive at $50NL. I used to only play tournies at Stars, but I'm finding the ring is beatable...lots of opps to steal and bully in position.

However, both seem to require lots of grinding to build a stack. I think I'm gonna work on lagging it up this fall to create more upside...otherwise I'm just not seeing getting paid off too much.

give it a couple of weaks, and all the US players will be spread out to the only sites taht will take us. then it hopefully will be back to easy money

I remember this being the case when I played at both places months ago. I'm pretty spoiled being an Ongame 25NL player for a few months now. It'll take some getting used to actually being able to take pots down with cbets (gasp!).
