Guest Anonymous Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 OK, all the people who say that the most you can expect to make playing mid-to-high stakes poker is 2 BB/hr, I want you to look at this hand.Party Poker 30/60 Hold'em (4 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cxPreflop: Hero is SB with [Jh], [Jc]. 1 fold, Hero calls.Flop: (9 SB) [4c], [Js], [6c] (2 players)Hero bets, Hero calls.Turn: (6.50 BB) [3h] (2 players)Hero checks, Button bets, Button calls.River: (14.50 BB) [5d] (2 players)Hero bets, Button calls.Final Pot: 16.50 BBResults in white below: Button has 6s Ac (one pair, sixes). Hero has Jh Jc (three of a kind, jacks). Outcome: Hero wins 16.50 BB. The point is that you can find people at just about every level on Party that are just hemmorhaging money, and you don't have to be a friggin WSOP bracelet winner to take advantage. I really think that my sustainable rate in the 15/30 to 30/60 game on Party is a lot closer to 4 or 5 BB/hr than it is to 1 or 2 BB/hr. Link to post Share on other sites

iggymcfly 0 Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Actually, I've decided that posting about how "soft" a game is angers the poker gods. I did it once before with a 15/30 game and now with the 30/60 game and both times, I went on big losing streaks immediately after and lost all my profits at the table, plus most of my buy-in. From now on, if some donk calls me down with a crap pair, I'm keeping it to myself. Link to post Share on other sites
