    Default Party poker

    Did Party Poker change what they call a Raked hand ?
    Before almost every hand I played was a Raked Hand, but with this latest January bonus only about 65% of the hands played at loose $50 tables were raked hands.

    Looks to me that tables shifted tighter. Used to be more 25nl tables with average pots in the $7-9 range. Now, many, many more in the $4-6 range. That would explain it, yes?

    No, really.

    I'm not sure what's going on, here. At NL50, unless you don't see a flop, every hand should be raked. Unless your table folds around into any raise, you should be getting credit for 1 RH if your dealt in.

    But Party has not changed their RH requirement.

    That is very strange Evolvo since I was clearing the same bonus and every single hand I played was counted as raked hand. Oh, and by the way Evolvo, I believe I have played with you a couple of times at the 50NL-tables at Party (nice to meet you didn't know u were FTR-er). 2bad the games at Party are getting so damn tight these days, don't know when this change occured but I sincerely do it changes back soon... Im still making good money, but the game just isn't as juicy as it used to be.

    According to Pokertracker I have played 1050 hands now at Party and I have 650 raked hands. Average pot on the tables have been between $10 - $12 ($50 NL tables)

    Oh well, It's clearing fast anyway, I'm just used to having like 90% of the hands being raked.

    In most cases, the tables will have around 6-10 players so every hand in which Party collects at least 10 cents is considered a raked hand.
