Hey Party 3/6 players...Raked Hand Percentage?

[SoCalRugger]

So for any 3/6 guys out there on the Party skins, what percentage of hands are raked? For 2/4, my PT stats say 52%. I'm curious if it's significantly higher at the 3/6 level (it's gotta be, right?). Thanks.

i don't have pt available at the moment, but if i remember 2/4 has a crappy rake schedule for clearing bonuses and such, much harder to get raked pot than at 1/2 or 3/6...but at 3/6 there are more pots won preflop and on the flop, i would guess somewhere around 40% are raked...

This is exactly why 2/4 is so great to play on Party because the rake is "cheaper," especially if you like to play shorthanded.

2 out of 3-67% of Party $3-6 LHE full games are raked that is from a 140K hand database.

For bonus purposes if you need to play 1500 raked hands(like the current Empire 15x bonus) you'll need to play 1.50x1500 or 2,250 hands or 35.15 table-hours at 64 hands per hour to clear the bonus at $3-6 Full that equates to 4.44 cents per hand. If you have higher than a 30% rakeback rate or play $5-10 Full or 6MAX or higher this bonus isnt worth it.

You make more per hand off this bonus if you play $1-2 6MAX where ~75%-80% of hands are raked. If 80% are raked you'll need to play 1,875 hands-you get paid 5.33 cents per hand. Best of all assuming you 4-table both the $3-6 Full and $1-2 6MAX you clear the $1-2 6MAX in only 6.25 hours playing 4 tables at 75 hph. The $3-6 full will take you 8.78 hours 4 tabling thus you make more hourly just in bonus playing the $1-2 6MAX over the $3-6 Full-$16 per hour vs. $11.38. With hourly earn added in it's a toss-up on which gamne to play-very likely they are very close if you make 2.50 bb per hour in $1-2 6MAX and 1.50bb per hour in $3-6 Full.
