anyone else having a problem adjusting 2 the new "players" on the site. im finding it difficult with the amount o complete clowns that seem 2 populate the tables at the 5/10 sit n go`s and the .25/.50 and .50/1 cash games i normally play.
There must b so many people out there with 2 much money!!! |

I maybe new to FT, but I have to say, I've been so pleased with the quality of people I've been playing with at the SnGs (heads-up), etc.. So much better than what I was accustom to at HWP.
I am liking it here very much. I thought it was going to take a lot of "getting use to" but it's been great so far.
I definitely like the FT players! Cheers, Grace |

Well, if that is what's happening, then I say "KEEP 'EM COMING!"
At least people have not been as rude as I've experienced, i.e., calling me a variety of names when I take them out. Maybe it's just because some boyz don't like losing to a woman.  |

You are not the only one noticing this. Once the average users got above 18K or so, it started to drop off. Many Party refugees. This can be a good and bad thing. The bad is the variance is higher, but the good is if you can adapt, there's much more deadmoney to claim. |

| As any site grows you will see more easy competition. You can complain, or you can figure out how to take their money. I sure as heck don't know how to beat them, but I'm trying to figure it out. |

Dead money is good, long live the donk.
Time to adjust, variance is a lot higher but in the long run... 8) |

| Do some searching around the forum. There have been threads in the past where we talked about some common newbie mistakes and tells. Sorry, I forget the names of the threads. But try searching for the words 'fish', 'fishcakes', 'newbies', etc... |

| actually in the 10 and 20 dollar SNGs the level of play seems higher both at FT and Stars (to my chagrin) over the last month. I wonder whether better players migrated disproportionately? |
