observations from jackpot games
a while back, california started offering mega-sized jackpots again, and I think the games have changed because of it.
Normally, I play in the 15 HE game at one cardroom. Here, the jackpot size is capped at a moderate amount, and the game's style hasn't changed much. I recently went to another room where the jackpot size isn't capped. I played in the 9-18 there and, where it once was pretty ram and jam, the game turned out to be a huge game of showdown. The game was very loose and very passive, with people unwilling to (I assume) raise out any potential jackpot qualifiers. anyone else experience this "holdem with a lobotomy" type games when big jackpots are available? |

Re: observations from jackpot games
The strange thing is, a lot of the hands that are going to qualify for a jackpot, are going to play anyway, so you probably should just play poker, and see what happens.
Good luck, play well, Bob T. |

Re: observations from jackpot games
I don't mind the change, and I don't change my game beyond the necessary strategy changes need in a passive game vs. an aggressive one. I just thought it was interesting that the speed freaks that used to populate the table are now compliant puppies.
