Multi-tabling Party bad beat tables?

[bigslowy]

It's 2:00 am sorry forgive me if this post sounds lame.

Ok, lets say you waited until the party bad beat jackpot got up to a pretty big amount, say around 100-150k which is around the time it is usually hit. Would it be potentially profitable to 8 table the 2/4 bad beat tables?

Yes. Many do this.

BBJ Level Required for +EV:
Level BBJ Level
$2-$4 $193,205.51
$3-$6 $222,151.66
$5-$10 $247,629.10
$10-$20 $275,848.94
$15-$30 $262,267.69

Playing BBJ tables is like playing a $1 shot that pays out $10,000,000 1 in every 9,000,000 times. In other words, is it +ev? yes. Are you ever going to win? No.

IIRC, 2/4 isn't +EV for BBJ's until around the BBJ reaches around 200k.

It's what? $.50 a pot. If I was playing like 15/30, then why not, but $.50 a pot is alot. Plus I don't have rakeback at Party. Plus I would have a hard time sleeping if I have a 5% chance to win 300K and didn't.

Can somebody show me how to 8 table the jackpot tables?? This is something I'd love to do but none of the other Party skins offer jackpot tables. So I end up settling for the regular tables at say Eurobet or something.

I had actually read somewhere that playing the BBJ tables can be +EV ignoring jackpot size because of the loose play and people chasing hopeless draws.

lol that is a quite valid point. You can't play 8 BBJ tables can you.

[toss]

How about half'n half. Good compromise I'd have to say.

If you're playing $2/4, that shouldn't be a concern anyway.

Is the EV calculation in the first response considering the side payouts too (probably, just curious to make sure) ie they pay out the winner/loser and the whole table?
