    Default Any one still on Party?

    The Party tables seem to be extremly loose.

    Playing $100 and $200 full ring, I have POffice so I don't get table VPIP.
    I have 4 tables right now at 35% flop seen.
    I raise EP w/ AA and get 6 callers, lose to a backdoor J9 Str8.
    1 minraise 3 callers, I reraise with AK to $25, and get 4 callers.
    It has been like this all week, I am losing a ton.
    I am playing a Vpip:18 Pfr:9 game and I am getting smoked
    I feel the need to trap every hand.

    Any suggestions?

    Take more cheap flops...Forget betting them off obvious flush draws & such....But make them pay at the river with value bets when your junk hands make something BIG....I hate the raisin with junk guys just because they have position...Tough to read & expensive to figure them out...Welcome to my world...I was up 300 ...a week ago, lucky to be just even still...tough difficult decisions made worse by a bad streak of players & cards...mike

    Raise more pre flop with your big hands to isolate, even if it means pushing. Try to see more cheap flops with gappers and junk to hit big hands, because you know they'll pay you off.

    I haven't played party since clearing October's reload (haven't received any Empire offers for the month but then again I'm not surprised with the way things are going).

    Beware, there might be a mad rush of withdrawels and party might not be able to cover them! I already took my party money out, slimmed my FullT roll to 2k, and im taking cash out of my epassport as fast as my daily withdraw limit will let me. I wouldnt take a chance if you have signif cash on there.
    Me? I always tell the truth.

    Even when I lie.

    I lost both hands...
    Still can't get away from AA, still see too many fish with AK, QQ, JJ, AT, whatever push like this on river.

    Bet closer to pot on the flop and turn in hand 1. You gave him great implied odds to draw to the flush.

    First hand: push turn. River is check call ok bet or bet fold to raise.

    Second hand: push turn as well.

    hand 1 bet more everywhere, c/c river.
    hand 2 good.

    whoofleury, think harder about hand 1. you push 171.80 into a pot of 51 for what reason?
    i betcha that i got something you ain't got, that's called courage, it don't come from no liquor bottle, it ain't scotch

    Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.

    1) Play premium hands. Make huge bets and raises preflop and on the flop to try and get all the money in when youre pretty sure you still have the best hand. Raising to 1/4 of your stack before the flop with AA and getting a caller is fun, especially when you consider you will be stacking TP/ overpair more often than losing to a set/ 2 pair.

    2) See cheap flops with any 2 cards that have a reasonable chance of making a big hand (i.e. 3 gappers, suited Kings and crap like that. Play passivly until you hit a hand cheaply (or fold) and then bet it big.
    gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

    1. Stop trying to make bets that will get raised. Just bet, party fish call call call. They dont raise without teh nuts or unless theyre dumb.
