Party NL 6max 50$ isnt whiffle ball is it?
Hi all;
Just move over to 50$ (0.5$/1$) 6max NL in Party. Before that I played like 8k hands (I know micro sample) in the 25$ 6max NL and was doing quite good around 8BB/100 hands. I moved over to the 50$ because I have a suuficient BR and I am telling you its not whiffle ball (whatever that means, in my country we dont have that). First of all the "move of honour" dosent really work here. Unless you are percieved as a crazy guy if you go all in preflop before anyone raised they wont call you. Second the guys in here are generally much much better. Not a little bit better but much better. Am i halucinating? Please tell me it aint so Does anyone have any pointers? BTW can anybody explain the term WHIFFLE BALL. I tried googeling it but got nothing, as you can see I have watched rounders to many times. mushi [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] |

They suck just as bad as the $25 players, I think alot of them also play the $25.
A wiffle ball is a hollow plastic ball full of holes that you hit with a plastic bat. |

My experience was that $50'ers were a lot more aggressive than $25'ers. That is to say, more maniacs, less calling stations. maniacs can be somewhat intimidating, especially on 6 max, so I guess $50 is a bit harder. Both are extremely profitable however, and I'm sure you'll be fine with some adjustments.

They're the same. I have about a bazillion hands at both and there is no difference.. at all. None.

Calling a game 'whiffle ball' refers to the fact that it is much easier to hit a whiffle ball than a normal baseball.
A whiffle ball has holes cut into it and it made of light-weight plastic. As such, you can't really get any speed throwing a whiffle ball, thus making it easier to hit. I only know a few things about poker, but I'm pretty solid on my idiomatic english. |

maybe you simply need better table selection...

Table Selection how do you do that?
I know this is a stupid question but the way I choose my tables is I just choose the highest averege pot and sit there I also put on my buddy list all the maniacs I see and follow them. Once in a while when I see my table is to tight I receck the table list and sign up to the table with the highest averege pot, like that?
I also heard that there are some good NL 6max games other than Party, maybe Prima sites or Cripto. Can you recommend any good "soft" sites. The thing is I played 1k hand in the 50$ 6max (I know very small sample) and Im breaking even, I know I shouldnt complain I am not whining, honest. But I know my game; I wasnt unlucky or anything but theses guys are not bad IMO. Maybe It will change but I can DEFFINETLY tell this is not 25$ 6max. I was even pondering to switch back to 25$ 6max where I can make more money, after all I couldent care less about what level I play I care about BB/hour, simple mushi [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] |
