Default Party Blackjack - end of an era

Since Party BJ started, I ran 400 up to about 1000, then down to 200, then back to 450.

Cash Out - Payment Distribution
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Payment Type Amount
-----------------------------------------------------------------
NETeller payment to **** $450.00

So, I quit up $50 vs Party BJ.

I do have 50 bonus dollars on Party, so I'm going to try and clear that. If I can make a stake out of that, more Party BJ!!!!!

busto would be more inspiring than a meager $50 win. this is truly disappointing.

la,

If I can grind out 350 hands of .5/1 or something, I will have a new stake to run up. Please try to stay positive.

Did you consider buying into a $25NL table, but continuing to play blackjack?

From what I've seen of $25NL this could be very very +EV and get you back to your highrolling partypokerblackjack ways as soon as possible.

also, by the "swings" you quoted it seems to me that you aren't pressing nearly enough.

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

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.
