Real names instead of nicknames at PartyPoker high limits
In August, another innovation will be tested on PartyPoker: players of the high-stakes limits will have to play under their real names instead of using screen names. This improvement was invented by Rob Yong, who created a poll pertaining to the innovation on Twitter:
In August @partypoker will trial Real Names for selected games such as High Stakes Cash Games, will be softy softy approach. Personally I am in favour of real names> improves etiquette, builds community & just feels safer. Do you think this is...

In total, over 6 000 people took part in the survey, and according to its results, 67% of subscribers voted that it's a good idea. Rob Yong displayed how it would look like:
Rob's main goal is to revive the high-stakes game at the PartyPoker tables. Yong believes that it is more comfortable for amateurs and businessmen to see the real name of a person they play with, instead of incomprehensible symbols in the form of screen name.
