Any reason why Party 3/6 is tighter than 5/10 short?
 

This is bizarre. Unless the winning 1/2 rocks have moved up and there aren't enough donaters to go around? [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Most of the guys I play with have a VP of about 30-50. Is 5-10 sh really THAT loose?

Sure theres a reason, your sample size is too small.

It isnt...

I dropped down from 5/10 to 3/6 and to me it looks way softer...

Blind structure. 3-6 SHOULD play tighter than 5-10, and 5-10 SHOULD play tighter than 10-20, and 10 SHOULD play tighter than 15-30.

I dont know if that is the case, but that is the theory.

Not so sure about that. Only the good players know how to play the blinds correctly; and as you move down, you will see less good players. According to your theory, 1/2 and 10/20 should play with the same tightness. We know that's not the case.

I think OP has just come across some bad 3/6 games and is basing his opinion on that over the short haul.

It would be interesting, however, to see Party change the 3/6 and 5/10 blind structures to $2/$3 and $3/$5 respectively.

I agree that it doesn't work out this way (which is good).

Or just 1.50/3 and 2.50/5.

Good point Evan. They don't make the blinds $7/$10 in 10/20.

Now, that I'm thinking about it, it makes no sense whatsoever. In B&M, making change slows the game down, but online, that's not a problem. Even weirder....The 15/30 Omaha H/L Party game has a blind structure of $7/$15. I wonder why.
