Not everyone has the time for a big tournament or the tolerance for the variance of a cash game.

Sng traffic is quite excellent on party, the problem is their software is so terrible you can't mass table with it.

LOL a SnG is just a tournament that (hopefully, given enough players) starts pretty much on demand. What is your problem with them?

As far as geolocation issues they are already getting better and we are about 2 weeks in. The number of times I have been disconnected has fallen dramatically since the launch. New technology is always a little flaky. A little patience is in order.

Anyone having trouble with their PT4 HUD's randomly picking tables to not show up on? Mines constantly working on 2 or 3 tables and wont show up on 3 or 4 others.

Sometimes it will pop up on the tables its not working on but only after at least a half hour into the session, most of the time it does not pop up at all.

Very strange.

SNG traffic is great on Party. I am able to 9 table $20-$100 games, software does require ahk scripts and mods to make it tolerable though. Even with that I had to reboot software during each session because of 'out of memory' issue. At least I haven't had geolocation problems in over a week.

I haven't seen any multi-table SnGs go yet on Borgata/Party. Is that the case or are my filters wonky?

And why are they all turbo? It makes no sense to me.

Now can we get the next person who whines about PS banned. It's a done deal. Let's talk about what can be done to improve the sites that actually exist in our world.

They only have enough liquidity for one type of SNG, if they offered 10 different types the lobby would be filled with empty tables.

I disagree. I think they could offer 9 seated and non-turbo SNG's, at least on Borgata. I can wait an extra 3 minutes for the structure I want to play to fill up.

Keep posting complaints here, keep e-mailing customer service.
Get a Borgata sub-forum going and see if a rep from there will post.

Hope for a solution that lets people play using public wifi.

This sounds like whining to me, and it is related to PS.

Check out Party Poker/Borgata forum. One of the FAQ sticky threads addresses this but no you can't link online rewards cards with regular Borgata card. If you go online for regular Borgata card you can see hotel deals. If you haven't played enough yet you will not have earned anything. Takes a couple sessions to earn room rates.

Anyone else find it strange that 6-max cash tables are now the overwhelming majority? Since when is 10-max the minority? Maybe it's been awhile since I last played but this is a fundamental change in the game I'm used to.

6 max is standard online.. full ring poker is standard live

Seems like it's a trend on regulated markets.

If you check PS.com lobby, the ratio of the SH-FR tables is like 60-40 or 55-45 with full ring winning on some levels.

Now if you go to the spanish pokerstars lobby the ratio is something like 80-20 or 90-10.

I'm happy with that, death to the stupidly bored fullring tables full of nits.

6 max means more action, more playable hands, more edge vs worse players and more fun wether you're regular or recreational player.

I agree, I prefer SH too and I understand why it's superior online. I was just surprised to see ratio of SH:FR of like 15:1 on both Party and WSOP. I guess I won't complain.

Only time I'd play FR is if I'm watching a game or something and want to play mindless NIT.

Thanks for replies.

FR games have dramatically dropped over the last few years. It's happening across all sites, not just regulated. All the sites American's still play usually have like 1 FR game for every 7 6 max.

The feeling out period will continue for a time. The six weeks of 2013 launch is nothing compared to what the full year 2014 will hold.

And the major money maker is not the poker side. Just as a few of the responses above have noted, poker players have slid over to the casino side and the results are "for the house".
I think most your claims are questionable at best.

How are any of these ventures "startup companies"?

Do you really think Betfair is on its way to success?

Please provide an example of a "launch weakness/pitfall that was anticipated".

And what makes you think poker is not the major money maker? We are not talking about brick and mortar casinos.
