Does anyone know of any sites that still have a 50BB max buy-in structure?

Like the old party structure?

VC Poker/Doyles Room and AP have 200BB max, which is fun, but I don't know of any that have 50BB max. I wouldn't feel like I had good implied odds with my low pocket pairs with a 50BB max buyin, although it would mean less difficult decisions when holding, say TPTK in a raised pot.

I didn't play on party before the change, but I heard other posters say it was easier to punish the fish and get them committed to their hand.

Besides old Party I have never seen the 50xBB structure anywhere else. If you want to have 50xBB because of playability (can't imagine any other reason) consider just buying in for the half amount yourself.
