Im fed up, party's $2/$4 game and up has become as tight as i would expect a $20/40 game to be with a 80% of the tables filled with TAggy players looking to clean on any fish. Very unprofitable...7500 hands in the last two weeks at $2/$4 and im at .25 BB/100. Im positive its not problems with my plays its just a table of vultures everywhere...

Agreed. For the time being, I've started to look elsewhere and work bonuses.

I'm going to keep working at my game and take a look in another couple weeks, however.

I'll move back if things seems to loosen back up. But I really think ive never seen anything like the $2/$4 tables at party right now. Everytime a table seems to be semi loose even for a couple minutes...its flooded with TAgg's on the waitlist to ruin it.

It is beatable, Im beating the 2/4 game for 2.7 bb/100 with over 50k hands in the books. You need to keep at it, it takes time to adjust to a new limit, 7500 hands is not enough to get a grasp of it yet.

Your table selection skills are lacking.

I would agree maybe table choosing.

But im picking about everything 4 tables at a time and watching for awhile everything from 9 person tables to 6 person tables, high avg pot , middle and low...and I lately I cant find tables on 2/4

Im back on .5/1 for awhile

I agree with Fnord. Table selection is huge. If I notice that the table is tight, I don't even waste my time. I usually go for the tables with an immediate opening and medium pot size. The large pots usually have a whole waiting list of sharks trying to get on. I don't even bother. I always wait for the BB instead of posting and by the time I get to the blind If I see a bunch of TAggs or notice that there is only 2-3 people on each flop, I bail. I don't know if this is the most efficient method but it seems to be working.

I have only been on party 2/4 for about a month and am at 2.43/100 on about 5k hands

The games are there, just have to find them. Sometimes I'll go through 30 different tables in a 3-4 hour session. You find a fishy table and milk it until the TAggs show up or the fish run out of money.
