    I just deposited $50 into party and have never played there, so I was wondering where I should start. I know some of you will say that I should be starting with more than $50, but I've had success with building a decent bankroll from less and I didn't want to put any more in before I knew whether or not I would like the site.

    So, all the Party experts out there: What should a guy with $50 do on Party? My strong suit is MTT, but I'm a pretty solid SNG player, too.

    Any advice?

    the 100/200 game would be a good start.....

    Eh, I would probably try to build with the 5+1 SNG's since you must not be much of a cash game player (and at the low limits it's essentially a crap shoot anyway). Play the 5 dollars and then occasionally take some shots at some MT SNG's.

    if u only hve $50 to deposit and ur a sitn go player, partys not ur choice. Try pokerstars, there sit n gos are only $5+50c and not $5+$1. every little helps remeber. the cash games are weak though try them

    It's not that I only have $50, I just don't want anymore in there before I'll know whether I'll like the site. I wish I could get pokerstars to work, but for some reason my connection on there is unstable (I think it has something to do with my router). And with no all-in protection, Stars has been an absolute waste of $$.

    Try emailing stars support with your router model and stuff, and see if they know of the problem. Perhaps they have a fix.. like opening certain ports or something.

    when I opened my party account I sent them $100. First two things I played $26 SnG for entry to 500k and $50 limit tourny with 60 heads. Took first in both.

    Some guy that won two tournies back to back the other night said he never played in party before, then he beats 2300+ and 400+ people ror first in both.
