Default Finally trying Party....

Decided to take advantage of the June Bonus. Cleared it playing 1/2 Stud/8 a lot faster than I thought. Averaging about 6.5BB/100, but I'm not too disappointed.

Of course, now that the bonus is cleared, I really don't have a way other than notches on a sheet to determine how many hands I've played.

Anyone got a better way to track?

Right click on your player icon to get a pop up windows
with stats on your current session.

1/2 stud can be a good game to clear bonuses because of
the oddball rake structure. The rake is a high 10%, and
the start pulling money early, at a $5 pot instead of the
more customary $20 pot. However, the rake is capped at
$1, so with the right players it's a low rake game
instead of a high rake game. Anyways, the rake is taken
out of almost every pot, unlike other games, so
bonuses clear fast.

Thanks a lot, that's gonna save me lots of aggravation!

Good to know about the bonus, I thought it was too slow/hand to catch much interest from bonus hunters.

I really thought I'd miss Stars cheap ante, but I'm playing the same hands at PP without suffering too greatly.
