Badbeat jackpot

Almost to $340k now. Time to fire up a few tables, I guess (and while hitting a piece of the jackpot would be great, I'm not playing for that - I'm here for the fishies).

Hey TP,

What's your handle/name on PP? I have it opened and wouldn't mind watching you play and hit the JP hard *grin*.

Cheers,

Gutzz

Just short of the 1k profit mark for the night....
Can't quite close the deal though...
I guess that will have to do though eh?

I cleared $250. Can't complain, considering I was down almost $200 at one table... and was nice enough to hand you $50 or so paying for a litle information at another. My read on you was pretty good. Didn't know I actually had 3 outs though!

Have you jumped to 15/30? That's an amazing win rate for 5/10. How many tables are you playing at once? Your PP points balance must be sky high

Congrats on a great night.

2 tables of 2/4
and 1 table of 5/10

Played for almost 11 hours straight.

While it's not a major secret or anything, I have chosen to not post it in here for now.

TP

how much different do you find the level of play on the jackpot tables to be? is it significantly worse than the regular shorthanded games that you play, or is it the same level of party ineptitude that abounds?

just curious, as i generally despise paying anything towards a jackpot, as too much of it invariably ends up in the house's pocket, but in this case it might be worth it.

It's hard to say. Most of my experience on Party has been at the short seated tables, and the BBJ tables are full ring... I also haven't played the BBJ THAT much... but so far, the play seems pretty poor.

I play the regular 2/4 and BB 2/4 on Party pretty regularly. I definitely find the BB 2/4 tables more profitable despite the extra rake, especially as the jackpot gets higher. My assumption is people will play any suited connector or low pair from any position pre-flop, and once they've called, don't want to fold to a pre-flop raise.
