Looks like they are about to merge Party and all the skins back into one big site. Would be nice if this happened before this reload. |

| I for one will not be tackling this reload. I did the last one and damned near pulled my hair out due to the overall tightness of the players. Was not uncommon to be at a 10 person table with 6-7 rocks. At party I would normally 6 table 25NL to clear a Bonus (at about 250 raked hands per hour), but at Empire I was averaging 110 4 tabling per hour. |

| Oooh - a break from B2B madness. One way to easily clear this is to play omaha at 25NL. If you don't do that then 6max is the next best thing. |

| ProZach, Empire apparently put their welcome Bonus back up. I saw on here a day or so ago where someone did the Empire sign up Bonus at 5x rake. |

If 6 max rake is the same as full ring rake, then how does Bonus clear faster at 6 max? I would think the more players there are then the faster the Bonus would clear.
I remember the last $200 Bonus I cleared here and feeling the same as AHiltz, wondering if I was ever going to reach the rake requirement.
edit: I think I played it at 25NL though. |

6max because of looseness. People complained it's too tight. Plus more hands per hour. I don't play omaha but my wife cleared Empire a while ago doing omaha. Nobody raises preflop but everybody limps - so every pot will be high enough even at 25NL.
You can play very tight on 6max and still break even or better. Don't think you have to go LAGG and call with any two to hang. |

I'm clearing at about 100 raked hands an hour three tabling 25s. Yes, that's around 12 hours, but fuck, I also made a lot extra. These players are terrible/pure tight Bonus whoring, and if you raise a lot you can own the table.

Make sure you've turned off the "hide full tables" option. There are plenty of tables, you just have to wait.
And yes, this is a great Bonus. |

Are you talking real tight 6 max 25NL omaha here? Or just 6 max in general? I've only played omaha a few times, plus some in free money, but I dont really count free money as any help. |

I'm saying play regular 6max NL. You can play tight there and still make money. For omaha, I would assume you can call from the blinds and LP (with a decent hand) and break even or better. A decent hand usually is a pair and/or suited connectors (higher is better). If you have 3 or more of a suit in your hand then it is not good since you have one of your outs. Just don't put lots of money in with two pair or less. |

Unless something has changed, you need to install Empire on a clean machine (one that Party has never been on before). Then create the account. Now you can go to your regular machine and play away. We have a test machine here at work that does quite nicely for these situations. |

6max = more hands over the same time frame as a full ring table. PM me if you do not understand this. Also with 6 max, I think you can adjust specifically to your opponents player type and nuances (more so than full ring). You take advantage of these things and make more money, I know it's harder than playing 19 hands, but it's pokahhhhhhhh!111111!!11!!
