first of all if you're talking nl holdem, then yes, u make money a lot easier at partypoker (use a bigger roll than in pokerstars though, variance is bigger there). Don't play stud there (at least not below 5/10 because lower limits have a terrible structure) or sng, they're a waste of money because partypoker actually tries to get a structure than increases the luck factor (smaller levels, smaller stacks,more players per table).

more players per table has no effect on the amount of luck involved in the game

hmm,well, theoricly I haven't really given it much thought, but practicly I usually find shorhanded sng a good investment, it's a lot easier to "not get lucked out on" if there are less players that u have to eliminate.
EDIT: I thought a little bit about it now, and I actually think that the number of players at the table does influence the involved. If I have a skill edge against 8 opponents the more opponents u include the smaller my chances are even if I have a skill edge.

but thats offset by an increase in prize

But isnt there a biggest random due to the fact that it would seems logical that the more player there are, the harder is it to follow how each one play...Of course, it is the same factor for anyone, but we are talking about luck?
But I do trust you are right that it might not change the luck factor meaningfully for an experimented player.

ye but your inability to follow how each player plays has nothing to do with luck

yeah, but the amount u get payed for winning doesn't affect the luck factor. But generally I agree, probably the small increase in the prize compensates the small increase in the luck factor. (I'm talking about the change between 9 and 10 players sng, not about 6players sng, when I'm on a small roll those are great, almost risk free if u play a few)

Speaking of poker T-T
I was playing texas holdem, and I had a flush with three hearts on the table, one of which was an ace (obviously, both cards in my hand were hearts).
My top heart was the queen, so I knew that the only hand that could beat me was the king of hearts and some other heart. So I went all in, and sure enough, someone had the king of hearts. His next heart was the jack.
Luckily, I was just playing with my friends, so it wasn't for a lot of money. Also, I ended up breaking even that night, Still, it pisses me off that he somehow had that hand.

then obviously he shouldnt gamble if losing money pisses him off

It pisses everyone off, especially when someone had the nuts and you had second best.

I think im gonna quit poker til im about older (when ive finished school and got a job so losing money doesnt hurt as much).
I think im not good enough. I dont suck at poker, but when i lose on stupid stuff like all-in with straight vs 2 pair all-in before river and he makes full house, just fucks up my playing afterwards.
So i guess I suck at poker anyway ^^
oh well, im happy, its my birthday day after tomorrow -,- Soon its just 1 year til 18

So youre not trying very very hard to become better and qualify for the leagues in Korea then? ^^ Just wondering
I wouldnt in your situation :p not that i know much about it

hes prolly just trying to enjoy himself, everyone knows dan != nal_ra, so hes enjoying korea and the bw scene, and having a really good time at it. He has a different style, as long as he doesnt try to conform to them, he can do damage vs people who wont expect his unorthodox style. If he does conform, then he will just be another semi-pro/amature in the midst of 1000 other players. Either way, he's having fun 
edit: 3$, all given to me by other players  , ive coached my friends with real jobs though and gotten them alot of money. Sat with a friend of mine for the 3$ WPT Satallite to the qualifer, and he got.. 9th He was chip leader for 95% of the tourny. Top 3 = qualifer seat worth 670$, 4th was 217$ cash. He's lost all of his money though when im not helping him, its kinda sad, overall 200$ of what he's invested is relatively gone, including the swings, hes lost about 1.3k in a month.

I dunno I think pokerstars has just as many idiots as party poker, higher stakes, more options, more tournies.
Pokerstars is a great service. I don't see any reason to play anywhere else.

You know by law, every time you earn money it has to be taxed. Even if you won $1000, lost $1000, won $1000 again, lost again, and finally won $1000, you earned $3000 total during that exchange (at any point you could have walked away) and therefore it is taxable.
Btw, all this pockerstars shit and whatnot, can you withdraw your earnings whenever you want? I hear people say they make $800/day, but is that just in play money that exists only on the internet? Or is it yours in cold hard cash whenever you want?
