I'm sorry you get tired of the reply but it is still correct. I never said the games were more profitable or just as profitable, I'm saying that because of poor postflop play the games are still very beatable...Especially the 2/4 full.

And at night it's still pretty easy to get mutliple tables at over 30 vpip

that is all

I just assumed that the slightly better play I'd run into this summer was because college/university was out. The kids can't play as freely at home as they could at the dorm.

Not that I have anything to back that up...but it calmed me down.

I think this level has REALLY gottin loose since college is back in business - I mean 40% flop is pretty common from my 1400 hands a week.

I think games always get a little tighter during the summer. The purely recreational players have a lot more choices to spend their time on. Even the fairly serious players probably spend more time on the golf course, and at the lake.

I blame him for all these [censored] short buy ins in NL.

The games are still beatable, but they're not the same games they used to be.

Two years ago, Party had 25,000 seats being filled at peak times. The Party 3/6 played about like a B&M 3/6.

Today, Party has upwards of 80,000 seats being filled at peak times. Now, the Party 3/6 plays about like a B&M 15/30.

The goldmine is the beginner tables on Party. However, you can only get them for your first 45 days.

I will shed a tear when those 45 days pass by...

Is this one of those "The boom is over" posts in disguise?
