The PLO8 tables have REALLY tightened up since the bonus came out. Is this typical of the Party bonus period? Is it the same for the Empire bonus period?
I am noticing a lot more players (this is good), but a lot of them are new to my PTO db (this is bad), and it seems like a large proportion of them play tighter than your regular PLO8 player (also bad). I am used to seeing lots of tables with >40% VP$IP, but I really have to search for one now. Case in point, of the four tables I have open now, only one is over 40% (41), 2 are in the low 30s, and one is at 25%. 25%!!!! I don't think I have ever seen this at 25PLO8.
Thoughts? Comments?

ok... my understanding was that this was a new rule at party. not only that, but rhound lost his bonus due to withdrawing money before he cleared his bonus -- i think he's played online before, too. 
fwiw, the "money" i refer to is your deposit (or perhaps any money you have at party) rather than just the bonus. apologies if that wasn't clear.

Actually, I have resently found that playing 3 PL O8 100 tables will clear the bonus quicker than playing 4 PL 25 tables.
On average the PL 100 tables are being raked 90% of the time and the PL 25 are getting hit at about 75%. Assuming 45 hands an hour at both tables, you get approx 120 raked hands at 3 PL 100 and 100 raked hands at 4 PL 25. Plus as a added benefit, I don't feel worn out after a three table session as opposed to a 4 table session.
3 * 45 * .90 = ~120 raked hands PL 100
4 * 45 * .75 = ~100 raked hands PL 25
The other thing that I try to do at Party is to reload at the end of the bonus period. Is seems the tightness has left the tables since most of the whores have cleared and have a little bit of scratch to work with.
