Party Blackjack - end of an era

[lapoker17]

we need some owning mahoney scale variance dude. like we need your action to affect share price. make it happen.

El Diablo,

10-tabling the 25NL 6-max should give you the required 350 hands in just over 20 minutes. Unless of course, you need 350 raked hands. In which case, you are f'ed.

Happy to help,
Yeti

[Ulysses]

Yeti,

Yes, they need to be raked hands. I am playing limit poker now. My strategy is to play TIGHT-AGGRESSIVE. Here is one hand, I think I maybe should have raised the river, but I not real familiar with my opponents yet.

All,

Here was the last hand I played in the session. I played it pretty TIGHT and AGGRESSIVE ("TAG") the whole way, pretty much a clinic in LHE.

la and others,

I don't think I'm gonna have the patience to run it up. I'm just going to take this $72 to BJ.

[NLfool]

dig those party BJ screenshots

[Ulysses]

la,

Alas, BUSTO.

Started off down, then had the $72 up to $120 or so and had a $25 double w/ A6 v. 6. Dealer pulled to 21. That started the downswing.

Then, down to $30, betting $15. Thought I had the comeback hand set up, but alas it was the BUSTO hand. I always get screwed w/ pocket Aces.
