This is where someone comes in and tells me it's all a big joke, and someone is just messing with me.

I'd like to know what grounds ppl are using to say that there $/hour rate will drop. A good players ROI should go up and might even cause $/hour to go up.

I'm guessing since the level they added is actually going to be close to where the bubble is anyway, both time and ROI will change very little. I don't see my ROI changing much because I suck at poker, but hr/tourney should go up slightly.

Doesn't Party realize this lowers their hourly rate?

Good thing I've been learning to play 6 max NL, I was pretty much done with SNGs and going to cash games even before this.

I'm bad at multiplying by 150 while 8 tabling....I guess I'll get used to it though [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Adapt and overcome.

If you can't handle a change like this then you probably can't handle a 45 buy in drop in your BR playing good poker either.

I know everyone is just being dramatic, and most people here will be fine, but stop teh drama prz. Play poker.

Which post were you replying to? I didn't realize I was being dramatic, because I'm not too concerned with this change.

[lawrence]

Now I'm even more convinced that there is more money to be made at 6 max cash games then SNGs.

I actually really like the change, and I'm not convinced it's going to reduce hourly rate. Am I the only one that hated the 50/100 to 100/200 jump in blinds -- going from comfortable in chips to insta-shortstack in one hand? Granted, it happened to everyone at the table and most of us here are better equipped to deal with it, but certainly it added a lot of "luck" to the game -- something the better players at the table are trying to minimize. The blinds still go up really quickly, so I doubt it will add that much time per game (especially since the hands it will add will still be push/fold preflop hands), and I think it should increase ROI slightly, but noticeably, for the stronger players.

I don't really mind that much. I usually have less than 1500 chips at the end of level 4 anyway. Much rather this than adding a new 5/10 level 1.
