Scroll down a bit until you get to the BBJ section. It's very easily +EV now (assuming it hasn't been hit in the hour or two since I logged off of Party). However...as always, it depends on the game. If you're passing up a fishfest on a regular table in order to take a shot on a fairly tight BBJ table, then the EV you lose via table selection more than cancels out your jackpot equity.

Re: how long will you wait to go play on the growing party bbj?
and I still dispute these numbers.
it's just one person's calculations. There IS some logic behind it if course....but I'm not entirely convinced that it's correct.

Re: how long will you wait to go play on the growing party bbj?
Really? I was playing them yesterday and saw a few fairly empty tables for a while. I was in a couple 10/20 games that were 4-5 handed and even played one heads up for a little while.
Aside: Would playing heads up on a BBJ table be a good idea? I feel like it is since the regular rake is still capped at $1 and we would get more of the prize money, right?

Need at least 4 players dealt in to qualify for the BBJ.

[/ QUOTE ] even if the rules allowed it, (edit) NO the more people the better. your chance of having the bad beat hit decreases hugely w/less players (far more than the additional prize share makes up for.) but if you also consider the addiitonal # of hands you could play headsup, as opposed to ring, it might theoretically make sense (although, i'm almost positive it still wouldn't) and even if it did, aren't you getting a little greedy [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: how long will you wait to go play on the growing party bbj?
Add in the fact that you don't even qualify for the jackpot unless there ar 4 players at the table and I think it's slightly less EV than you are thinking.
(wonders if they take $0.50 JP-drop when 2 or 3 players...I doubt they do since it's not eligible...but wouldn't be surprised).
