Chips: 243 | | | Re: Party might raise min buy-in That would be sweet. I play the smallest micro limits there, and at NL10 its not uncommon to have 5 people sitting at a table with the 20BB min buy-in hoping to double up and leave. Ironically the NL5 has the same min-buy in, but there you get 50BB's instead of 20 for the $2.
Don't like the idea about having to get the same seat though, I sometimes like to change seats to get better position. |

From my minimal experience playing online, I thought that if you left a table and wanted to sit back down within X minutes (30 minutes, for example) you had to sit with at least what you left with.

Also I think you need to wait for a few hands or until the blind have passed the position where you sat before you can choose a new seat - otherwise you will automatically return with the same seat & stack. |

Also if you want different seat, you have to wait until hand is over before reseating. |

Chips: 111 | | | Re: Party might raise min buy-in Party is a public company and the executive are can be arrest if they ever step on US soil as the founder of NT found out to their sorrow. As much as I would have prefer Party to let US players on their site, I don't blame them for protecting themself from the US government.
If you check the sites that ban US player, you will find that most if not all of them are public companies. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
