Party Jackpot tables - $0.25 drop AND 10% of jackpot

[TylerD]

25 cents per raked pot goes to the jackpot (plus normal rake), Party will take 10% of that jackpot each time its awarded.

Why would party take 10% each time that just sounds stupid why not just make it 10% smaller....

[submariner]

Also, 20% of each jackpot goes to start the next jackpot, so the actual jackpot is 70% of whatever the listed jackpot size is. And they've dropped the 1/2 tables, jackpot tables are 2/4, 3/6, and 5/10.

That still might be good at the 2/4 tables which have the lowest % rake, maybe some of juicy 1/2 jackpot fish will move to 2/49.

A 2/49 game would be interesting. Can you say 98 percent seeing the flop percentage?

if these math numbers work out (25 cents per hand and Queens full of Tens) to be somewhere around fair, it makes me sick to think about where all the jackpot DOLLARS are going in California.

Does the $0.25 get included in the gross revenue calculations (for affiliates)?

[gojacketz]

Is it gonna stay at Queens full of Tens?

If it stays at queens full I can't see the jackpot building. Last night it was hit about once every 45 min. That's no way to build a jackpot.

How big was the jackpot when it was hitting? Knowing how much cash comes in from a 25 cent rake on a fraction of their tables every 45 minutes seems like an interesting peek at Party's revenue stream...
