Default action at Absolute 5/10?

Yeah, I know that there are a ton of posts every day about Absolute so I'm sorry about adding to it. I've searched the recent history of posts, but they don't quite relate. Almost every post is from a bonus whore playing .50/1 and 1/2. I am also interested in their bonuses because they don't subtract from the MGR in calculating rakeback. But, I play mostly 5/10 6-max and no one has commented on these games at Absolute. Can anyone give a review about the number of games going and the typical playing styles at this limit (shorthanded or full)? It seems like the bonuses and rakeback combined would give well over a 1.0 BB/100 bump to your winrate at this level. Who has done this on Absolute, and is it worth the effort to put in some play at 5/10 there?

while clearing part of my bonus at absolute 5/10 6max, I was getting 46 bb/100, though the sample was small [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

And yes, the 5/10 games are just as soft as any other 5/10 game is. Good luck multitabling, I couldn't play more than 1 at a time (per limit). Although I was playing around 6-9am Eastern.

looks like about 3 full and 2 short tables at 5/10 open right now (probably more on nights & weekends). looks noticeably more weak-tight than the bigger sites judging by the average pot sizes which barely scrape above 4BB's/hand.

rakeback and bonus combined is worth about 15-18 cents/hand (just over 1.0BB/100 dealt) for your specs, but I'd have to think your gross win rate from pure play will be a bit lower in comparison.
