One of us read his post wrong. I read it to mean he had an open ended straight flush draw. You read it to mean only the 6 was a diamond. Huge difference here... If he was chasing perfect perfect (and I now think that he was), then bad play.

Is all this the exact same at Empire as it is at Party?? Is the rake really inflated on those tables?

This is a Bad Beat Jackpot. does not have one.

And yes, the inflated rake is what builds the Jackpot.

I don't like how Party takes a 10% cut out of the jackpot...seems a bit steep. But we're all big suckers for a huge jackpot ><.

i love how you peopel take me seriuosly when i say things like 'pot odds say call to hit a runner runner straight flush'... obviusly this is a terrible play, you wouldnt even break even in 10/20 in the long run if you used this strategy...because even when you hit your straight flush once in every 1000 times, you arent going to break four 8's or better until you play at least 100k hands following this strategy... so basically u would donate ur life away. take me seriously though and point out the flaws in my 'theory', maybe youll get through to me and actually convince me to fold my runner straightflush draws
