the Powerball is still growing, is that rigged??

What the hell. I repeat. Did I claim say it's rigged (PP JP)? Anyone who thinks so (that I claimed it's rigged) is clearly an idiot. Idiots don't have a sense of humor as well.

just go back to bluff-raising LPP's on the turn with J2high

[/ QUOTE ]

Huh? I rarely bluff LPPs. I do bluff weak tight TAG robots and make money from them.
Also when you bluff it doesn't matter what cards you hold. I can bluff with J2, with A2, with 73 etc. So I don't understand the "...bluffed with J2" comment.

Well, with fewer people to the flop and fewer hands going to showdown, it seems to me that NL would be at a pretty big disadvantage as far as hitting the JP goes, so either party would have to screw you over, or make the jp drop lower for nl tables, surprisingly, it seems party isn't willing to do either.

That's probably why they kept the house advantage on the new color of the flop side bets down to a meager 17.6%. I have no idea why they don't have any NL BBJ tables but this certainly is not the reason.

I've never seen a hand that would have qualified either (although I could have been on a table when one happened and just not noticed it).

I've been playing full-time online for over 3 years, somewhere in the neighborhood of 1.5 million hands. I've had 1 hand that would have qualified. I had 99 on a T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9 flop. K on the turn, J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] on the river and I lost to K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].

I have been involved in 4 bad beat jackpots in my poker career (15 years) and I don't play that often. One of them was on Party when quads 8's lost to a sf. I only got the shared part of that one. The other three were at B&M casinos, twice I got the big portion of the jackpot, once I shared the small portion.

Maybe I'm just good(or bad) luck when it comes to BBJ's. Come play at my table [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I get 5.9%

1-8*(26*25*24)/(52*51*50)=0.05882=5.9%

Did I do that wrong?

it's 1-7. They say 8 for 1 instead of 8 to 1 I think.
