Where are all the loose tables?

[bardolph]

I've yet to find a "loose" table (6-8 players/flop) on Party Poker micro limits. Do such tables exist? Or will I only find them in casinos?

They exist, but I havn't seen as much lately.

Pacific is notably more soft than the typical game at party of the same limit. Their software sucks, you can't use PT, there is no good way to review past hands, and they can't even tell you how many raked hands you have played, but they do have soft games. I often see .5/1 and 1/2 games with 75-80% of the players seeing the flop.

Again, their software sucks ass, but I'm up about $90 over ~500 hands of .5/1 there so far...

The other thing to remember is that game quality varies a lot with time of day, at least in my experience. You want to play from about 3 PM - 8 PM PST, when all the WPT enthusiasts are out in force.

Are you kidding. I just finished about 800 hands at .5/1 at PP. Loose as it has ever been. $10 avg pots and 6 to the flop almost every hand.

Surprisingly enough, about 2AM EST or so, games seem to soften up considerably for me. 30-35% VP$IP turning into 45-50%.

I've seen that too, but not as often. Evening tables often seem to stay reliably soft for a good while. During the middle of the night, you have to keep an eye on the other tables and be ready to move around a bit.

On the plus side, its usually easier to hop tables late-night, since the waiting lists are shorter.
