It's funny to read some of these past posts. I switched to
PokerStars from PartyPoker after the latter pulled out of the US market on Oct.13. After playing on it for more than 2 months, I give it two thumbs up. They have great variety of games/tournies, tons of Fish and I'm making dough.
I've found a nice Freeroll and also a small buy-in tournie with added cash. Let's just say "Cha-Ching". All I can say is do some research.
