Default Boss Media 1/2 Stud - 85% to 4th

Has anyone else played the 7CS games on Boss Media's Poker sites (SportingBet, FastPoker, etc..)? This game routinely has 85% (or more!) players to 4th, and around 6 to the river EVERY hand, with a .50 ante. I know this game has to be profitable, but the variance has to be just through the roof (I've already dropped like 40BB in just 2 short sessions, basically losing in every way imaginable). This game is full of crazy situations (I've already seen a runner-runner SF over quads, and a maniac winning about 120BB in 40 minutes playing every hand - he won about 85% of the hands (with basically everyone but me to the river every time), including winning 6 hands in a 8 hand stretch with a full house; I've never seen anything like it.)

Never play there, but I just got done playing in a game where in one hand it was capped on every street four or five way until the river.

the crypto sites are much tighter with only about 75% to 4th [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I've only made $360 there this month at 1/2 (including the $90 bonus) [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

No, it's not. I wouldn't have bothered to post if this was just Party Jr. I've logged a few thousand hands at Party .5/1 (mostly S8, though) and even more hands at the crazy Crypto 1/2 and 2/4 tables. This game has average pots that are 50% larger than the equivalent Party game (the average Party .5/1 game has $10-15 pots - make that $20-30 if it was 1/2.) This game regularily averages $40 pots, and I've seen it at an insane $48 average before. Right now the .5/1 Boss Media Stud game has an average pot size of $23 - the best Party .5/1 game has an average pot size of $12.

One thing I forgot to mention - $1 bring-in in this game as well (basically have to bring it in for a full bet), which makes it impossible to get in cheap with speculative hands.

EDIT: Right now, the 3/6 game is actually going. 6 handed, $100+ average pot (almost twice that of the best Party $3/6). Too bad the software is Pacific-esque (no multitabling!) or I might actually play here more often.

I've had this site in my "to whore later" file for a long time, but there's rarely any action there above 1/2, so i may skip it.

gotta love those sites that are connected to casinos and sports books- they seem to have the best stud games out there (cryptos, bodog, bossmedia).

BTW, a bunch of posters from the bonuswhores forum are going to be playing stud on sunday around noon pacific time at bodog (a whore convention, basicly, the bodog bonus requires 'contributed raked hands'- making stud the ideal game to whore there- one poster mentioned that the .50/1 game clears at about $5.50/table/hour, the 1/2 and 2/4 probably almost doubles this- which is huge if we four-table). I'll probably be there.


bodog has a bottomless 20% bonus and a nice stud structure, and lightning fast software, anyone else want to show up?

sry for the hijack.
