It’s always an interesting question to ponder when it comes to deciding which online poker room to play at, where are all the fish? Most players know that the two biggest sites online, PokerStars and Full Tilt, in comparison to every other operating poker room, contain the least fish and tend to have the hardest games to beat. New players will commonly join a poker forum and post this question to regulars asking, which is the easiest site to start at?
Over the years many different poker rooms have had their name thrown into the list of easiest sites to beat, but now, it has officially been discovered that Party Poker has the lowest percentage of winning regular players on it. Yes, Party Poker now holds the title of easiest poker room.
Independent player tracking website, PokerTableRatings, through their research and analysis of all hands they have in their extensive database, have discovered only 7% of the players are winning regulars. Their definition of winning regular is defined by any player that has played over 50,000 hands and has profit to show. Compared to other poker rooms the average has been around 12% with the highest being 18%
After further analysis, PokerTableRatings went over their database to query what percentage of occupied seats was being taken by winning regular players who multi-table and take up multiple seats at a time. Party Poker had just over 10% of their seats being filled by a winning player. So if you sat down at a 10handed game, statistically, only one of those players is a winner. PokerStars has around 30% of their seats filled by winning players.
Party Poker does take care of their new players by offering beginner tables, only accessible for players that have recently opened an account with Party Poker so it’s beginners playing beginners or fish playing fish. The site also offers entries to their $30,000 bankroll builder freeroll tournaments.
So whether you’re looking for a change of scenery and hoping for an easier game, or if you are new to poker and want to start in the easiest environment possible, Party Poker may be the site for you.
