View Full Version : How's the clearance at 1/2 6 max at Absolute

I used to whore Absolute a lot in the past at .5/1.

I'm planning on going back to the 1/2 6 max games. I figure that 3 tabling an hour a day should get me anywhere between $350 - $400 in bonus per month plus about $100 in rakeback (I'll probably play thru Goal Poker).

I see there are normally 10+ tables of 1/2 going at any given time and the games appear OK. I usually see 1 or 2 players at a table sitting with less than 10 BB's which is a pretty good indication they are fish. I'm assuming a 37%ish clearance rate for the bonus - is this about right?

I've found that i play about 250 hands to clear $10 of bonus. That's not including RB. Bonus + RB is about 2.7BB/100.

That's 40% which is what I figured from watching the tables. I guess that's not too bad given about 300 hands per hour at 6 max

At 2.7 bb/100, if a guy could put in 10000 hands a month that's $540 in bonus and rakeback.

the problem with their effing rake system..is that when the pot gets raked .50 it doesn't count toward [censored] unless u win the pot and get some rakeback. i don't know how many pots at 1/2 get raked up to .75, but it seems like total [censored]. the other big sites, at least any rake counts toward something.
