Lots of fish though. 7 players seeing the flop is a good thing /images/graemlins/cool.gif

working off the $300 in bonus $$ at those tables drops it out of the waste of time category for me at least....

Me. Aside from $350K the BBJ tables are so much juicier during GMT prime time than the normal $3/6 games.

me too, the play is utterly absurd, especially during prime time when all the ppl with real jobs come home and try to hit the lottery.

Got to hand it to party on this one: it's a pretty effective promotion -- even all of us who know the EV on that thing is negligible at best are wasting our time there.

i'm not a limit player yet (though i'm going to try to learn the game well in 2005) but have been sitting at the tables occasionally. Also working off the party bonus, and most pots are raked on their 2/4 tables from what i've seen thus far.

They have been extremely juicy all night... I've been on a roller coaster at 2/4 for 3000 hands, and I am about to get off only up $27 /images/graemlins/frown.gif (+ 300 bonus consolation $$) after all is said is done. This is not going to reflect well on my BB/100 stat.

They don't call them "bad beat tables" for nothing and Ive dealt more then my fair share tonight... the stories I could bore you with, but won't... however, 3,579 hands, AA 12x for a total of $16 profit. /images/graemlins/confused.gif

damn.
well....i'll probably be back when it pushes past $200k again.

The play was probably juicier imo. Although I was winning 8BB/100 in my time there so it was due more to a great run of cards than the fish.

Fun while it lasted.

I've been on a rollercoaster as well. For the $200 reload I played about 2000 hands and finished -$800 (133 BB). Hopefully I'm back on an upswing as I just finished for the first 200 hands of the $100 reload up $180 (30 BB).

As soon as the JP was hit ALL my tables broke up. Oh well its Christmas Eve night anyway, time to get merry. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

what limit hit it?

I did last night just for the hell of it.

"Closest" I came was when I was all excited that I got raised on the turn when I had JJ on a TTxJ board, hoping he had quads and I could hit my 1-outer.

I'm pathetic.

Not as pathetic as me occasionally open-limping from EP with 65s or something even though I, of course, normally wouldn't.

Just didn't think i could live with myself if the flop somehow came 789s.

I limped a lot of suited connectors from early posistion. The conditions where right. 5-7 players seeing flops, very few pre-flop raises, and a possible 130k payday!

thats why you gotta play a couple of other tables of non BBJ and not pay attention at all to the flops and stuff.

I couldn't live with myself either.
