$11\'s at Party seem very tight lately...
I have noticed lately that many of the $11 Party games seem very tight. I seem to be struggling at level 5-6 because there are frequently still 6-8 people left and everyone basically has an average stack. I have basically started playing it like the bubble, but often when I am in the SB-Button the pot has been raised or several limpers so I can't push unless I have a hand.
Has anyone else noticed this? Any ideas on how to adjust? Here is my final hand in a game that has seemed "common" to me lately... it was the 48th hand with blinds going up to t200 in 2-3 hands... ***** Hand History for Game 2885866788 ***** 150/300 Tourney Texas Hold'em Game Table (NL) (Tournament 16633300) - Sun Oct 16 13:39:51 EDT 2005 Table Table 67072 (Real Money) -- Seat 2 is the button Total number of players : 8 Seat 1: ricardo399 (300) Seat 2: hunbikapoker (1410) Seat 3: Dr_Jeckyl_00 (700) Seat 4: brob87 (510) Seat 5: leroymag360 (1470) Seat 6: Stingrey333 (1125) Seat 8: envyit23 (1280) Seat 9: babyron (1205) Dr_Jeckyl_00 posts small blind (75) brob87 posts big blind (150) ** Dealing down cards ** Dealt to Dr_Jeckyl_00 [ 2d, Ad ] leroymag360 calls (150) Stingrey333 folds. envyit23 folds. babyron folds. ricardo399 folds. hunbikapoker folds. HERO? I did not like the UTG limp, but in 3 hands I would have no FE... not that I do here... |

meh, I've been running a little breakeven there but it's mostly because were getting 5-handed in level 3 and my stack is 700, while the average is 14-1500. I hate to burst your bubble, but I don't think they are getting tougher...unless your horribly shortstacked like our examples.

I think this is a form of variance. Play in the evenings, between 8:00 PM and 11:30 EST and I don't think you will see this. I get on streaks like this, where I run into the only 9 other tight players for a few SNG's but then things return to the norm.
