Party 15/30

veganmav · #1 08-27-2005, 08:01 AM

I 4-table the party 15/30 game and was wondering how many of you frequen this game?

How do you feel about it now, in relation to before all the higher limits opened up on Party? Does anyone actualy agree with me that it's not that tough of a game? Exercise some table selection and maintain your solid play and you should be able to maintain over 2.5BB/100?
Thanks

It is not as soft as it was when the only higher tables were the 2 30/60s. It's still pretty easy to find relatively soft games though, and I think the 15/30 is the easiest of the mid limit games on Party.

Before the very recent change Party made where they are now restricting the number of 30/60 tables, I found the 20/40 games softer than 15/30. But now several of the good multitabling players have moved down to 20/40.

I imagine that a winrate of 2.5/100 in the 15/30 is only attainable to a handful of players.

"Very recent" when was that exactly? and how much are they restricting it too? (I mainly play on a party skin, not party itself).

So let me get this straight, the opening of the 30/60 to more than 2 tables made the 15/30 and 20/40 games tougher. Furthermore the very recent restricting of the 30/60 games has now made the games even more tough?
hmmm...

So i'm in a catch-22 ey? they open up the 30/60 i'm screwed, they restrict it, i'm screwed. eh?

party initially removes limits on # of 30/60 tables. fish flock to tables. party limits # of games to 25. now fish still there but all the shorthanded 30 guys drop down

I think it was a couple weeks ago. I don't know the exact details b/c I usually don't play the 30/60 games. But I think they restricted the number of tables to 25(?) or so. This change affects all of Party's skins. What this means is that during Party's peak hours there are no shorthanded 30/60 tables and it can actually be difficult to get on a table due to waitlists. So, some of the good players who had been multitabling the 30/60 moved down to 20/40 so they could always get a table and play shorthanded.

The reason that the original unrestricting of the 30/60s made the 15/30s tougher is that many of the loose/action/fishy players from 15/30 went up to 30/60. This is not to say the 30/60 is easier now; there are also a lot more very good multitablers there than in the 20 and 15 games.

When exactly did Party restrict to 25 tables? and will you please tell them to leave me to my 15/30 alone? [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

You make this sound like a walk in the park. There are very few players who are able to maintain over 2.5BB/100 over a substantial number of hands.

At what point does it become substantial? 30k? 50k? 100k?
Just curious.

Secondly, what is a more realistic BB/100 then?

(not tryin to be a jerk, i'm seriously wondering)

Depending on how sure u want ur bb/100 to be, 100K is a good point to judge it in my book.

I have less than 50k hands and am flucutating betweend 1/1.5 bb/100. I dont know what your goals in life are, but I would be very happy financially 6 tabling at 1bb/100 at that game. I know there are players with better winrates than me on here, so dont look at mine as a cap, just a realistic number for ya.
