Does anyone else play NL10 in Party? what do you think about this "casual tables" thing? I was trying to get Silver Level status this month for the very first time, but I can't find enough tables to play because I can't play in this casuals at least I open one single table. Suddenly I feel like Party does not want me playing in its room. It sucks, but if they don't want me there what can I do but leave.

Hmm party poker sucks and you would be better off there if you playing with real money and stay there to just play freerolls or only play in promotions that are easy to attained. They do have good freerolls but their software make you tilt every time they crash and take forever to log back on and so on.
But if you want good rakeback try pokerstars if you playing a lot. More good prizes and they are good and support are good and they pay out with no hidden fee!

Sorry if it was not understandable.
I used to play NL10 at party; I wanted to get Silver VIP level this month but I won't be able because I can not make enough Party Points. Since casual tables were created there are not too many available tables at NL10.
I was asking people that play in Party what they think about these casual tables segregation

G'day mates
Yes I came across those so called casual tables and my first thought was what an incredibly stupid idea. Personally I think anyone who only wants to play on one table at a time can regulate that all by themselves by just opening up one damned table at a time and playing. Why take 50% of the active tables at a given level limit and lock them up in such a way? It just means there are now 50% fewer table available for multi table players to play on. This I think is just going to cost them rack and piss players off in general. best wishes to you all be cool

Posted by IceQueenAce: I don't know, I think maybe the 'pro' players will stay away from the casual games as they need to be playing several tables.
This would lead to more casual players keeping their BR longer. And this will lead to them playing longer. That = more rake.
I think casual tables are more likely to be more fishy, and I will be trying them out sooner or later
What she said!
It's a gimmicky idea that might get people thinking they can concentrate more and not be overtaken by the temptation to play multiple tables at anyone time....... Eventually, I guess, some people will work out the level of play going on at hese tables and open one up and clean up, all while multitasking on another site at the same time!

Another try from a poker site to draw more players on the tables, thinking that its for their best interest, while the site is the one that gets a bigger portion out of their money by rake Lets see what else, they will thing in order to "protect" the casual and recreational players
