Default Is Party trying to kill the 30/60 games?

When Party restricted the number of 30/60 games to 25 about a month ago, game quality deteriorated, but they were still good. Now Party seems to have decided to limit the number even further. There are now only 18 games running regardless of the waiting lists. What's going on here? Game quality is deteriorating cause the fish don't like waiting in long lists. Is Party trying to kill this game?

I guess the short answer to that is yes, right? Don't people lose their money slower in the 20/40 and 15/30 while paying the same rake/hand?

Well look on the bright side -- not so long ago it was limited to 3 tables.

I think it would be more accurate to say they are experimenting to find what number of games works best for them.

Apparently they've decided it's more than 3 but fewer than 25.

Yes, it would also appear that they are homing in on an "optimum" number, at least for the time being.

getting the full $3/hand from 18 tables is better than $1/hand from 40 short tables.

Looks like my 2+2 15-30 6max games will be the easiest games around.

I always come in at the wrong time [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] By the time i got to the 15 game, the "golden age" of it being like 3-6 had just ended. I have been ok with the 30 games after the restriction, but this latest one is bad news.
