Is there anyone here that plays a lot of tables on party especially satellites? Does anyone find how annoying it is everytime you have a table change, then the table freezes for a bit and you can't click on anything and have to wait till that table loads again?



Its like everytime you get a table change, all your tables are like frozen... until that table loads. Its almost impossible to play on this site because of this reason.



Also im wondering but even if you have an extremely fast computer, you still will get these issues right on party? Using partycaption helps with hotkeys etc... but the lag is basically almost impossible to play if you play a decent amount of tables.

Whats the point with playing vs Andrei, Sergei, Boris, Mihail, Dimitrij 24h per day. No wonder fish goes to other places then partypoker. Why not start a russin player pool seperated from the normal player pool? The russian bots will play vs each other anyway.

Have been grinding 25nl last few weeks and am about to move to 50nl. However the fast games seems to be dead. Is this always the case? On 25nl it is currently 83 players, on 50nl 2 and on 100nl 66. Same thing yesterday.

Seems wierd?

Does everyone here after you open partypoker client and log in... need to task manager and delete the 2 or 3 pgwebrenderer every single time? I have to do this each time otherwise it show cpu 100 percent and it lags a lot. Im talking about the pgwebrenderer under background processes.



But once you do this, do any of you do the same when you click on task manager and look at the apps and click on partypoker client? When you do, it shows a few pgwebrenderer as well. Does those need to be deleted each time you start party?



Also, i notice every single time if i were to open partypoker and log in... then open hem2... i know hem2 hud doesn't work for party... but i use it for another site when playing... every single time the partypoker client would close. Then i would need to open party client again but this time... also need to enter my username as well... when normally its just type my password since my username is saved. But if i were to open hem2 first... then open partypoker client... this doesn't happen. Is this some glitch or something?



Also no matter how fast your computer is, playing many tables on partypoker will definitely cause a lot of lag right? I play bunch of satellites as well and what i notice was because there are so many table changes in these satellites, the lag is unbearable. Its like you need to wait many seconds until your new table change loads correctly before you could click on any other table. There is no way around this right? I use partycaption which is good but this is annoying.



Im wondering are there ppl that play say 12+ tables on party and has no lag issue? Like if you got one of the fastest computers right now... you still would have issues because of the party software right? I have an old i5-6300hq processor dell laptop but i did a while back ago upgraded the ram to 32gb... but still party seems to lag a lot etc.



Im curious why does party not get better software. I mean if their software was smooth, wouldn't the be probably the number one or two site out there now? Do they not have technicians to fix their software?

I've got very similar experiences on Party. New tables freezing the others, seemingly random slowdowns. I've tried lots of stuff to try and fix with no success. Got an AMD Ryzen 2600, 16 Gb ram and an RX 570 4 Gb PC and have zero issues elsewhere.

Hey all,

Anyone play the Fast Forward PLO games, do they run often at 10PLO?

Does anyone know what the rake structure is like there compared to other sites as well? (I'm sure this has been covered before, so apologies in advance...)

So those computer specs you listed are very fast now correct? I know ryzen is fast.


Thus if you also have these similar issues while having a very fast modern computer, i guess any computer will still have these issues?


Yea new tables or when you get a table change which opens a new table... slows down action at all your tables. Imagine you get disconnected and reconnect... when this happens you wait till all the tables reopen and when you do this, you need to wait till all of them load before you can do anything... which in term will cause you to fold. I don't know why there are not more complaints about this because this software is really bad. So you don't have issues on other sites like 888 for example? How many tables do you play at once though?


I want to know if one is suppose to close the pgwebrenderer in the apps... like where you click on partypoker etc... or is it only closing the pgwebrenderer in background processes enough.


I use partycaption and even when you drag tables, you notice lag.

This network either has house bots or it rewards losing players. This with a combination of worst software it makes sense why the rakeback is best than anywhere else. It's truly sad cause its one of the last to play cash games.

Who can play 8+ tables on partypoker without having lagging issues? This is just insane the amount of lag there is when playing mtt and satellites. The issue with satellites are there are many table changes so your tables consistently move and each time this happens, your tables are lagging and you can't click on anything for many seconds.



What I notice that is worst is when you are playing say 8+ tables, many times when action is on you at a table, the bet sizing slider and all those things aren't even smooth and doesn't even load. You need to wait a very long time for everything to fully load... by that i mean your options of fold, call, raise etc for those to display. But because i use partycaption and hotkeys, i would just click those hotkeys without having to wait for every table to load. Because if you wait, your hand folds because of how much time it takes. I can't even click on bet x amount and see it on the slider because if i wait that long, it folds. So i have to use hotkey.



The big other issue with this is when you are getting table changes and play many tables is when you do this, the lag you have is at least 8 seconds or so. So you have to wait it out but if you wait too long and don't click on anything you get folded. But the biggest issue here is when you try to move your mouse to other tables during this lag, the mouse disappears. So you can't click on anything due to the lag. You need to wait until all your tables are not lagging before you can click anything. You move your mouse to a table and its not even there. Does anyone here have this issue? This is ridiculous because even using your hotkeys on your keyboard doesn't help with this when the mouse disappears and you have to wait 25+ seconds before the tables load. You have to control alt delete but doing that many times doesn't help... you need to wait till all your tables load.

Adding some additional info...

I've been playing exclusively at Party Poker in the past 3-4 years, but casually, as in specifically only when there's been great rakeback (promotions), so despite the way I'm losing hands in some of the hands above, playing a good poker is still very rewarding on this network, again thanks to having better promotions (rakeback) than elsewhere.

So, I am thankful to what Party Poker is doing to stay competitive. My only problem is I need to get used on experiencing this on their software, and for whatever reason it's happening I hope others can get past the frustration that comes from endless bad beats and witnessing odd plays being rewarded.

I would still recommend Party Poker over any other network, because that's still my primary place for cash games.

I agree but they removed Leaderboards promotion to replace it by "Hot Tables" and now they also removed the "Hot tables"

The site is infested with accounts that do the exact same thing below.

1) Never run it twice
2) Call hands or do things like in the example below
3) Get rewarded 90-95% against me

The only way I'm barely earning some $ is due to better promotions than elsewhere, but at the end I earned as much if not more at GG playing for few months with barely any rakeback. These things I also never saw happening at GG, not once, but here this seems to be common thing.

@MoroccanGrinder that's also true, but currently there's extra flat 10-20% rakeback.

Dude take your nonsense to the poker is rigged thread!

Like did you seriously just post losing a flip as evidence the site is rigged!?

Hey now, he had something like 48% equity, how could he ever lose!

Anyone know if these games ever run?

losing a flip to short stack is not definition of rigged
being under EV 3bb+ for 300k hands could be considered rigged

Can anyone else confirm this who have a very fast computer like this person?



New tables freezes other tables... when you have table changes a lot... such as you playing satellites... this will happen a ton... then you wait a while until all your tables load.



Also does anyone else mouse suddenly just disappear when this happens? I use partycaption for layout and hotkeys etc... and even with it... when this lag happens on party... back then i would be able to click on a hotkey with my keyboard to call or fold or all in ... but now when the lag is bad... the mouse disappears and i have to press control alt delete to bring the task manager... and even when i do this, my hands many times still gets folded. Back then i could still call/fold/all in with my hotkey during the lag... now its basically impossible.



Who here could even play many tables especially satellites this way on party when there is constant table changing? The software is basically impossible even if you use partycaption.



When table freezes, then your other tables have to wait till the other table unfreezes or moves or opens up... and by then, your hand on many tables is folded. Im surprised not much people have talked about this.



Also the moment you are disconnected... and try to reconnect with your internet... and then it reconnects... you need to wait like 25+ seconds at least for all your tables to load. Its not like a few tables are loaded you could call/fold/raise on it. You need to wait for all the tables to load and by then many of your hands are folded. Was party software always like this?

Hi, any nl25/50 good grinder here want to talk and do some analysis with me( poker pro)?

How can anyone play on partypoker if they are multitabling many tables? And especially if you multitable with another site?



The moment you hit say 10 tables if you mix party with say 888, the lag is unbearable to the point where your mouse just freezes and you can't click on anything. You control alt delete and your mouse cursor appears but many times... it then disappears and you have no idea where its at. Is this very common to you all?



Thus imagine when action is at your table, you cannot even see the bet call or raise display on the bottom. You have to use your hotkeys and you can't even see what amounts you are betting otherwise your hands fold. If you play satellites, its almost impossible because of so many table changes... and each time this happens, you get a long freeze and have to wait for all your tables to sort of load... which doesn't even fully load.



Not only that, when you get disconnected and reconnect, it takes at least 25 seconds minimum when waiting for all your tables to even load ... remember not load correctly but enough for you to click on hotkeys for action. When the party client crashes and then you open the client and log back in, you have to wait like at least 50 seconds for all your tables to load... assuming you are playing 8+ tables... before you can even act. Then your hands get holded. And im using partycaption as well.



Do most people not have this problem or something? I have to close pgwebrender each time after opening partypoker otherwise cpu is at 100%.



But even if you do that, if you playing lot of tables and get lot of table changes, its horrible lag. This might be one of the worst lags on any site i ever seen.



My laptop is few years old and i5-6300hq and 1tb ssd and 32gb ram. I use hem2 when playing on another site when also playing on party. Also use the other captions as well. But anyone here not have issues playing on party? How could people even play 12 tables of fastforward on party for example with these kind of lags/freezing? Someone mentioned they have a fast laptop ryzen processor and still has these issues.



So is party basically unplayable unless you don't ever play more than 8 tables max?

I've seen NUTS stuff on this site. Things that are mathematically almost impossible to keep happening. It's been this way for 1500 tournaments. Insane beats. If i needed income from gambling, i'd never choose poker. This site has made me play according to their site. I went to GG expecting to see an ace on every flop. LOL

congrats - you are an idiot. Stick to slots.

Does anyone else have these lag issues on party? Its basically almost impossible to play if you play multiple tables especially if you get tons of table changes if you play satellites. Also the mouse disappearing and you can't click anything and you get folded happens way too much when this happens. Someone here mentioned they have a ryzen 7 computer and really fast and they get similar issues.



Is there a reason why party can't just fix their software to be smooth like stars without aurora? Such that you could move tables and click things without it lagging?

Anyone can't connect to party now? Log back in and it doesn't let me in even after signing back in.

Same here, the support said they are working on it...

I cant log in keeps telling me I have incorrect password, even once I change it it wont let me log back in, support said they are working on it but can give no time scale
