Has anyone noticed better results in their sit and go acton on Party with the new update? I love it because you don't have to play just Aq+ so you can play some real poker. And its not such a crapshoot with 5 people left.

I've played one new Party SnG so far and went out when I flopped an Ace with AKs and lost to pocket rockets. So, I have no idea how good the structure is.

I agree somewhat, but its not THAT major of a change. I've noticed more of a change when it gets shorthanded (5 or fewer people) because now the 10 minute levels mean that you are playing 15+ hands per level as opposed to the standard 10 hands/level that it used ot be. The change in starting stacks/blinds still leaves you starting with 50BBs as opposed to the 53 that you previously start with. However, the fact that any non-donk poker player should be able to easily survive til its 6 or 7 handed (low limit SNGs - barring a bad beat, or some bad luck once in a while), and it does make the structure better.Only complaint is that now all my SNGs are taking 60-70 mins to complete so while my ROI is up...my $/hour is shrinking.**All of the above is in the context of the $33 and lower buy-ins.-Mark
