22,500 hands in 3 weeks means you're multitabling. Making .89/BB per 100 in the 30/60 is a great rate while multitabling, you really can't ask for more. If you say you made 2.61 BB/100 multitabling at the 15/30, well, I might have to be skeptical.

Why would you be skeptical about that? I know of several players who made a similar rate and I myself made over 3BB/100 multi tabling for a few hundred thousand hands.

I had an absolutely horrid start at the 30-60 games myself (probably the worst long term stretch I've ever had, I guess many would say I was due [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]) but its starting to come around. I'm about .5BB/100 at the 30-60 games through about 35k hands. I personally miss the old 15-30 games. Like Nightwish said, there's just not going to be any turning back as the 30-60 game will have to be the base now of most multi tabling pros and semi-pros. Sigh. Maybe Nighwish and I can start a petition to rid Party of the new 30 games [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I have about 25K hands in the new party 30 game. After starting out on a marvelous run, the last 10K hands or so I've been getting kicked in the teeth. Add in a tilt session or two and my once proud win rate in that game is now reduced to less than 1BB/100.

I agree that the game is not as easy as the 15 either. There are some donkeys, but also a lot of tough and very aggressive players which makes for a high variance game.

Does no one else think...
 
that the 30 has gotten significantly easier in the last couple weeks? I am finding many more fish there now than I was in the first month it was open. Also I am finding players making much bigger mistakes (obviously going hand in hand with the fish). I have even found player calling the river jsut to see what I have. This was not the case several weeks ago where I was lucky to have 1 super fish at teh table.

Is anyone else surprised the 30/60 remains as popular as it is now that the extra tables have been there for 6 weeks or so? I thought it would get a lot of action for a couple of weeks, and settle back down. But 15/30 looks dead to me now. Where do the 'losers' in this game get the money?

Really? I'm playing 4 tables at a time, which is the exact same number I was doing in the 15/30. Maybe 0.89 BB/100 really is a great rate for this game, but I don't believe this to be the case at this point.

That's really true, and there are people who did better than that. I can post a screenshot if you really insist.

I'm doing OK in the game, up a little over 1BB/100, although I don't have a ton of hands. I started off on fire the 1st week or so, then mangaged to drop 150BB in 2 days. Since then things have been much more rational.

Table selection is important as many times I'll keep opening tables only to find at least 2 or perhaps 3 of the decent regular folks on each table, leaving very few real good games to join. On top of that many of my new "buddies" quickly went broke and either dissapeared or went way down in limits.

Re: Anybody really beating the new Party 30/60?
 
Did a lot of the higher stakes players "drop down" to the 30/60 when it opened up? There used to be a good number of okay 50/100, 80/160 and 100/200 games online, but now I can't find any in ET evenings, and I'm down 3.5 tabling it at 30/60. Well, I wanted to do that anyhow, since I had just experienced a ~500BB digger and needed to regroup.

cheers,
highland

Re: Anybody really beating the new Party 30/60?
 
I was wondering the same thing, I use to be 1.29bb/100 according to PT at the old 3 table set up, which I use to 3 table when I got bored of sngs/multis. I mean I got a couple pm's somedays from people like stox/jjprod that Im very good, and other days where 2+2ers PM me about a donkey hand.

Let's shead a tear. So you dropped from $79 to $53 per 100
hands. Looks like you're doing well to me.

Just play more of the softer 15-30 games. You're not running bad--the 30-60 is most likely a lot tougher.
Probably you should pick your spots when you play the bigger limit.

I will join you. Ever since they opened up the 30 games, the 15 games have sucked. No one seems to be making any mistakes anymore. On the other hand, I have only played 3 sessions for about 9 hours this month so it just might be that I continually found myself in tough tables.

I was about to join the 30 games as of tonight but this thread doesn't exactly have me rubbing my hands in gleeful anticipation.
