Thanks for this :D
I freaking started playing blackjack due to this stupid stupid feature!
Lost about $500!
So stupid of me but I also think it is disgusting from Party’s side to offer this on a poker website, this is not good for online poker in some countries (due to the gaming laws).

Div, exactly. Their sidebet should BE a sidebet. I’d like to wager against another player that I had better cards than him, or similar.

for most of the party players, that small -EV is better than the edge they give up playing poker. they’d be well advised to just do the side bets and hope for the best. especially since it isnt raked. lol. also can’t wait to hear people cry that the color of the flop is rigged too.

StudioGlyphic the problem is they are gambling directly with Party, not with you.

If they lose all their cash on stupid sidebets, they can’t lose it to you at the table.

Re: Drizz

This kind of change should be welcome, in my opinion. I think it’s always better to play with gamblers, and the more gamble available to them, the better.

Joaquin,

You’re absolutely correct. Do you see why?

Hopefully Grubby never notices the new buttons.

This is giving me yet another reason not to play at Party though. I don’t need prop bets in my face while playing poker.

If I’m in a gambling mood I’ll throw some money into casino, but poker sites are for poker only.

I’m not sure what you are all talking about. I spoke to David Sklansky today and he really broke down the numbers. He says you all are stoopid when it comes to numbers and you have them all wrong and that if you were as smart as him you would get as many ladies as he does.
